Choosing clothes, food recognition and traffic signal analysis are major challenges for visually impaired persons. The existing automatic clothing pattern recognition is also a challenging research problem due to rotation, scaling, illumination, and especially large intra class pattern variations. This project, a camera based assistive framework is proposed to help blind persons for identificat...

Artifacts pervade our lives, our every activity. The speed, power, and intelligence of human beings are drambtically enhanced by the invention of artificial devices, so much so that tool making and usage constitute one of the defining characteristics of our species. Many artifacts make us stronger or faster, or protect us from the elements or predators, or feed and clothe us. And many artifacts...

This essay proposes a new interpretation of the Pauline expression to “clothe” (ἐνδύω) oneself in Christ (Rom 13:14; Gal 3:27; Eph 4:24; Col 3:10). The phrase has been understood terms putting on virtues and godly characteristics. Other understandings this appear identity (Gal 3:27). There relatively limited study, however, significance clothing how different racial groups were known characteri...

In this paper, we proposed a children behavior tracking and personal identification system based on multiple Kinect sensors. In our system, two Kinect sensors are used, one is set horizontal in front of the children, to get their frontal face information, and the other one is set slanted, to get the whole scene with few occlusions among the children. Face, clothe color and moving information ar...

2014 We consider the adsorption of polymers on colloidal particles 2014 spheres and cylinders 2014 whose dimensions are comparable to solution polymer radii of gyration. Adsorption occurs if the « sticking energy » per monomer exceeds a certain threshold. For a colloidal particle, this threshold increases by an amount inversely proportional to its radius. In addition, the repulsive interactions...
