In this paper, we propose a novel distance-based camera network topology inference method for efficient person re-identification. To this end, we first calibrate each camera and estimate relative scales between cameras. Using the calibration results of multiple cameras, we calculate the speed of each person and infer the distance between cameras to generate distance-based camera network topolog...

Kocevski et al. (2003) found that there is a linear relation between the rise time and the width of gamma-ray burst pulses detected by the BATSE instrument based on their empirical functions. Motivated by this, we investigate the relationship based on Qin et al. (2004) model. Theoretical analysis shows that each of the two quantities, the rise time and the width of observed pulse, is proportion...

In an attempt to illuminate some of the underlying causes of phonological deficit in dyslexia we investigated the influences of processing suprasegmental acoustic features on children’s phonological awareness and reading and spelling abilities. In the English cohort tested (N=65) the processing of duration but not of intensity in 9-year old dyslexic children was significantly poorer than in age...

The current profile along the 126 ns, multi-bunch beam pulse in the Next Linear Collider Test Accelerator (NLCTA) is monitored with fast toroids (rise time -1 ns). Inserted at several positions along the beam line, they allow us to track current transmission as a function of position along the bunch train. Various measurements, such as rise time, current, width, and slope, are made on the digit...

A few specimens belonging to the deep-sea family Hyocrinidae (stalked Crinoidea, Echinodermata) collected by submersible in the eastern and western Pacific Ocean are described. Laubierierinus pentagonalis, n. genus, n. sp., from the North Fiji Rise is the first discovery of a hyocrinid crinoid with a pentaradially symmetrical stalk. Hyocrinus biscoitoi, n. sp., from the East Pacific Rise attain...

Continental Pronto uni es high availability and disaster resilience at the speci cation and implementation levels. At the speci cation level, Continental Pronto formalizes the client's view of a system addressing local-area and wide-area data replication within a single framework. At the implementation level, Continental Pronto makes data highly available and disaster resilient. The algorithm p...

Abstract The Rio Grande Rise in the western South Atlantic Ocean has been interpreted as either an oceanic plateau related to Tristan-Gough mantle plume, or a fragment of detached continental crust. Here we present new major and trace element data for volcanic rocks from eastern adjacent Jean Charcot Seamount Chain. older parts are comprised tholeiitic basalt with moderately enriched compositio...
