In this paper, we propose a system to detect event photos using geotagged tweets and non-geotagged photo tweets. In our previous work, only “geotagged photo tweets” was used for event photo detection the ratio of which to the total tweets was very limited. In the proposed system, we use geotagged tweets without photos for event detection, and non-geotagged photo tweets for event photo detection...

Let bd(P ) denote the boundary of a simple polygon P . Points p and q of P are mutually visible if segment pq lies entirely inside P . This notion of visibility gave birth to an extensive literature on art-gallery problems [3], concerned with guarding the floor of a polygonal art-gallery. Chvatal [2] showed that bn/3c point guards are always sufficient and sometimes necessary. Allowing guards t...

The piezoelectric enhancement of photo-catalytic activity for water splitting and pollutant degradation is a novel approach to developing renewable energy environmental protection applications. Herein, new form defect engineered Na-Sm bimetallic-regulated CaBi2Nb2O9 platelet synthesized via molten salt process An intermediate band structure introduced by Sm-doping, empty orbitals in the conduct...

A method for determining the photo excitation reaction cross section of at gamma energy is investigated. HPCe detector used to measure absolute activity induced, producing a practical value calculating average section. Which found be (0.6683) ub matching expected theoretical value.
 This work may considered pioneer measurements such – section.
 Key words: Activity induced,Cross sectio...

Given the growth of Internet photo collections we now have a visual index of all major cities and tourist sites in the world. However, it is still a difficult task to capture that perfect shot with your own camera when visiting these places, especially when your camera itself has limitations, such as a limited field of view. In this paper, we propose a framework to overcome the imperfections of...

Imagine that you are the owner of several art galleries and that you are in the process of hiring people to guard one of them. Unfortunately, with so many in your possession, you seem to have forgotten the exact shape of this particular one. In fact, all you can remember is that the art gallery is a polygon with n sides. Of course, guards have the capacity to turn around a full 360◦ and can see...

We introduce the notion of a normal gallery, a gallery in which any configuration of guards that visually covers the walls necessarily covers the entire gallery. We show that any star gallery is normal and any gallery with at most two reflex corners is normal. A polynomial time algorithm is provided deciding if, for a given gallery and a finite set of positions within the gallery, there exists ...

A nucleobase-caged peptide nucleic acid (PNA) having a (6-bromo-7-methoxycoumarin)-4-ylmethoxycarbonyl (Bmcmoc) caging group was newly synthesized. The Bmcmoc-caged PNAs were photolyzed to produce parent PNAs with a high photochemical efficiency. Introduction of a single Bmcmoc group was sufficient to suppress polymerase chain reaction (PCR) clamping activity and triplex invasion complex format...

Ag2O/TiO2 nanobelt heterostructures have been found to possess high ultraviolet photocatalytic activity, but a poor cycling performance. After a S-doping treatment, the obtained Ag2O/Ag2S2O7/TiO2 heterostructured nanobelts exhibited an enhanced and stable photocatalytic activity under both ultraviolet and visible light irradiation, which was exemplified by photo-degradation of organic pollutant...
