A multi-resolution image matching technique based on translation invariant discrete multi-wavelet transform followed by a coarse to fine matching strategy is presented. The technique addresses the estimation of optimal corresponding points and the corresponding disparity maps in the presence of occlusion, ambiguity and illuminative variations in the two perspective views taken by two different ...

A multi-resolution image matching technique based on multiwavelets followed by a coarse to fine strategy is presented. The technique addresses the estimation of optimal corresponding points and the corresponding disparity maps in the presence of occlusion, ambiguity and illuminative variations in the two perspective views taken by two different cameras or at different lighting conditions. The p...

If we are keen to boost the process of language learning, we need to study every aspect and component of our course. To this end, we carry out an investigation in which every detail of the course is put under microscope. Assessment of a course is an attempt in which different type of information is gathered systematically in order to study the working of a language instruction program. Certainl...

there are many commentaries on light in its role as the subject matter of illuminative philosophy. according to suhrawardi, light is a symbol of “consciousness” and “self-consciousness”. therefore “knowledge” is the pivot of suhrawardi’s philosophy. the fundamental issue addressed in this study is the evaluation of vision or intuition in the essential topic of illuminationist philosophy, that i...

This article examines the potential of a learning-as-a-part-of-a-community approach, focusing on the participatory process of learning in a community-based, teacher education program; a Community of Teachers (CoT). CoT is a preparation program for preservice teachers working toward secondary teacher certification in which they join an on-going community and remain a part of that community from ...

This article presents a model for the evaluation of educational innovation in a context of transformation. The model incorporates formative, summative and illuminative evaluation goals and emphasizes the need to locate the innovation which is being evaluated within the context and policy framework of its operation. The evaluation framework provided by the model takes into account the full range...

I want to thank my supervisor, Martin Grohe, for his patience, many illuminative discussions and for encouraging me to develop questions of my own. I would like to thank Dzifa Ametowobla for supporting me throughout this work especially by reading several parts of it and helping me greatly with the design. Furthermore, I am indebted to Bettina Hepp and Kay Thurley for helpful comments on earlie...
