The problems of photo aesthetic and photo quality are similar, but not exactly the same. In photo aesthetic assessment, we seek photos that looks beautiful to people. The aesthetic score of a photo can be affected by the photo’s color tone, composition, layout, and etc. In photo quality assessment, we seek photos that are in high quality. The quality score of a photo can be affected by shake, b...

gender usually plays a significant role in the works of photographers andcauses men and women to take different photographs. nowadays, photographsand photography have a crucial and pivotal status in societies. the majority of theevents and accidents unfolding in various parts of the world are communicatedto the people via newspapers, magazines, internet and television, and undoubtedly,photograp...

In vitro tensile bond strengths of Photo Clearfil Bright (PB) and Clearfil Photo Posterior (CP) with Clearfil Photo Bond to human enamel and dentin were determined by a truncated cone bond test. Parameters tested were: four substrates (etched enamel; unetched dentin, D1; dentin conditioned with 10% polyacrylic acid, D2; and dentin etched with phosphoric acid, D3); two techniques (bonding agent ...

In a series of animals being studied for motor performance after parietal area ablations (earlier communications2 with Dr. M. A. Kennard) skin temperature readings were taken from the extremities with the intention of studying these preparations further. Significant, sometimes wide, differences in skin temperature were obtained in these parietal preparations. It was decided, therefore, to explo...

This paper presents an efficient hardware-accelerated method for novel view synthesis from a set of images or videos. Our method is based on the photo hull representation, which is the maximal photo-consistent shape. We avoid the explicit reconstruction of photo hulls by adopting a view-dependent plane-sweeping strategy. From the target viewpoint slicing planes are rendered with reference views...

Data collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC are used to measure the lifetimes of the B0 and B+ mesons. The data sample consists of 8.3 fb collected near the Υ (4S) resonance. B0 and B+ mesons are fully reconstructed in several exclusive hadronic decay modes to charm and charmonium final states. The B lifetimes are determined from the flight length differenc...

We summarize the results of the New Gauge Boson Subgroup on the physics of extended gauge sectors at future colliders as presented at the 1996 Snowmass workshop. We discuss the direct and indirect search reaches for new gauge bosons at both hadron and lepton colliders as well as the ability of such machines to extract detailed information on the couplings of these particles to the fermions and ...
