The recent development of retrieval techniques and advances in 3D shape representation has induced a large amount of research. This paper presents a methodology with three options to retrieve shapes in 3D data bases, based on mapping shapes in 1D using representative sequences, which are matched using Fast Dynamic Time Warping distance. The three options are compared through a performance measu...

Abstract. We address, in this chapter, the identification of typical patterns that best characterize a set of sequences. More specifically, we focus on data-driven methods that search for the typical patterns among the observed sequences. In life course studies, such typical sequences serve, for instance, to describe ideal-type life trajectories; i.e., the common way(s) of organizing our life. ...

This paper is concerned with the summarization of a set of categorical sequence data. More specifically, the problem studied is the determination of the smallest possible number of representative sequences that ensure a given coverage of the whole set, i.e. that have together a given percentage of sequences in their neighborhood. The goal is to yield a representative set that exhibits the key f...

I n 1999, this column described the hotly contested efforts of advanced practice nurses (APNs) to define in federal regulations relationships between APNs and physicians that recognized the full scope of practice and quality of care of APNs. With the new skirmish described here, the battle continues. In June 2006, the deceptively titled Healthcare Truth and Transparency Act (HR 5688) was introd...

The proposed approach aims to track multiple moving people in a colour video acquired with a single camera. The first phase of the approach consists in precisely detecting multi-human inside moving foregrounds. The input to this phase is foreground pixels which were extracted from the scene using any background subtraction technique. These moving foregrounds are then further segmented into mult...
