New momentum for civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) is building, driven by the confluence of growing demands for accountability and results in health, improved equity, and rights-based approaches to development challenges, and by the immense potential of innovation and new technologies to accelerate CRVS improvement. Examples of country successes in strengthening of hitherto weak sy...

The history of vital registration has attracted substantial attention from both social historians and historical demographers. While much of that research has touched upon issues of fertility and mortality, the contentious issue of the stillborn child-which falls somewhere between the two-has been largely neglected. Although civil birth and death registration was introduced to Scotland in 1855,...

The second paragraph of Article 6 the African Charter on right and welfare child obliges its States parties to register birth immediately. Birth registration is a key other children’s rights. In conjugation with UNICEF-Burundi, State made an effort attain completeness. Children’s non-registration undermines all analysis through this research uses documentary methods interviews. Civil servants d...

Augmented Reality best described as adding computer-generated virtual content to the real environment – needs more adjustments to work properly than immersive virtual environments. To be perceived as an augmentation of reality, the virtual environment has to be properly aligned to the real world. This registration process has to be done at least once for every hardware set-up, but may have to b...

The traditional methods of registering crime scene, such as photographs, sketches, videos and oral descriptions, etc., are lowly efficient and couldn’t meet the requirement. In this paper, a new method for crime scene reconstruction which combines the virtual reality techniques with efficient interaction is hereby proposed. The new techniques, such as close-range photogrammetry, panorama photog...

BACKGROUND Two World Health Organization comparative assessments rated the quality of South Africa's 1996 mortality data as low. Since then, focussed initiatives were introduced to improve civil registration and vital statistics. Furthermore, South African cause-of-death data are widely used by research and international development agencies as the basis for making estimates of cause-specific m...

The registration in augmented reality is process which merges virtual objects generated by computer with real world image caught by camera. This paper describes the knowledge-based registration, computer vision-based registration and tracker-based registration technology. This paper mainly focused on trackerbased registration technology in augmented reality. Also described method in trackerbase...

Background: Health and Demographic Surveillance Systems (HDSS) collect independent mortality data that could be used for assessing the quality of mortality data in national civil registration (CR) systems in lowand middle-income countries. However, the use of HDSS data for such purposes depends on the quality of record linkage between the two data sources. We describe and evaluate the quality o...
