Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) operate in a unique environment compared with field-mounted systems and may experience elevated temperatures recurrent or persistent shading. These stresses are expected to accelerate degradation, but there few performance reports for true BIPV as defined IEC 63092-1. Herein, the long-term (over 5–10 years) of 55 Switzerland is reported. Using year-on-ye...

We propose a new real-time temporal filtering and antialiasing (AA) method for rasterization graphics pipelines. Our method is based on Pixel History Linear Models (PHLM), a new concept for modeling the history of pixel shading values over time using linear models. Based on PHLM, our method can predict per-pixel variations of the shading function between consecutive frames. This combines tempor...

The perception of shape from shading depends on the orientation of the shading gradient [1] [2] [3] [4]. Displays composed of elements with vertically oriented shading gradients of opposite polarity produce a strong and stable percept of 'concave' and 'convex' elements. If the shading gradients are rotated 90 degrees , the depth percept is reduced and appears much more ambiguous. Results from p...

Received Nov 21, 2017 Revised Jan 29, 2018 Accepted Feb 17, 2018 For continuous target following under complex scene, an objective following calculation in light of multi-shading joint likelihood investigation model was introduced. The calculation embraced shading histogram to speak to the actual factual trademark with Camshaft standard and completed exploratory research in such angles as multi...

We present a model based approach to the integration of multiple cues for tracking high degree of freedom articulated motions and model refinement. We then apply it to the problem of hand tracking using a single camera sequence. Hand tracking is particularly challenging because of occlusions, shading variations, and the high dimensionality of the motion. The novelty of our approach is in the co...

Proof systems play a major role in the formal study of diagrammatic logical systems. Typically, the style of inference is not directly comparable to traditional sentential systems, to study the the diagrammatic aspects of inference. In this work, we present a proof system for Euler diagrams with shading in the style of sequent calculus. We prove it to be sound and complete. Furthermore we outli...
