3d Object Recognition Based On Constrained 2d Views, Levente Toth Jan 1998

3d Object Recognition Based On Constrained 2d Views, Levente Toth

School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics Theses

The aim of the present work was to build a novel 3D object recognition system capable of classifying man-made and natural objects based on single 2D views. The approach to this problem has been one motivated by recent theories on biological vision and multiresolution analysis. The project's objectives were the implementation of a system that is able to deal with simple 3D scenes and constitutes an engineering solution to the problem of 3D object recognition, allowing the proposed recognition system to operate in a practically acceptable time frame. The developed system takes further the work on automatic classification of marine …


Factors Contributing To Landslide Activity In The Winter Of 1995-96, Clearwater County Near Orofino, Idaho, Aaron Paul Wisher Jan 1998

Factors Contributing To Landslide Activity In The Winter Of 1995-96, Clearwater County Near Orofino, Idaho, Aaron Paul Wisher

All Master's Theses

Significant landslide activity occurred in Clearwater County, Idaho in November 1995 and February-May 1996. Mass wasting in the study area consisted of debris slides and earthflows triggered by rain-on-snow weather events. It is important to determine what factors contribute to landsliding in this area so that reliable prediction can reduce the destruction of property. Through field observation and aerial photo analysis, the factors contributing to landslides were studied. The objectives included a study of the geology, soils, aspect, slope gradient, vegetation and slope position related to each slide. Also a goal was to assess the role of land use in …

Resource Use In The Trinational Sangha River Region Of Equatorial Africa: Histories, Knowledge Forms, And Institutions, Heather E. Eves, Rebecca Hardin, Stephanie Rupp

Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series

This volume is based on an international conference, “Natural Resource Use Relations in the Trinational Sangha River Region of the Northwest Congo Basin,” held at Yale University in September 1997. In recognition of the bilingual context in which conservation occurs in the three countries of the Sangha region — Cameroon, Central African Republic, and Congo — all sessions of the conference were conducted simultaneously in French and English. This publication, which is a complete rendering of the conference papers and discussion sessions, is available in its entirety in both French and English.

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Technology And The Law, Diane E. Horvath, John S. Jung Jan 1998

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Technology And The Law, Diane E. Horvath, John S. Jung

University of Richmond Law Review

During its 1998 Session, the Virginia General Assembly passed forty-three bills related to technology that were signed into law. Of these, six bills were proposed by the Joint Commission on Technology and Science ("JCOTS"). This article summarizes several enacted bills and provides reference numbers for each bill discussed in the 1998 Acts of Assembly ("1998 Acts"). Given the breadth, depth, and speed of the technological revolution, the purpose of this article is to discuss succinctly the most significant 1998 legislative actions related to technology in areas of substantive law, practice, and procedure.

Romantic Agonies: Human Suffering And The Ethical Sublime, Anthony P. Russell, Terryl Givens Jan 1998

Romantic Agonies: Human Suffering And The Ethical Sublime, Anthony P. Russell, Terryl Givens

Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications

This essay examines two poems depicting human anguish in order to explore a current in Romantic thought that implicitly yields some original and compelling insights regarding the problematic relationship between art and suffering. The focus is primarily on Wordsworth's narrative of Margaret's suffering in The Excursion, then more briefly on Shelley's Prometheus Unbound. In both cases Kant's ideas about the sublime provide us with a useful perspective from which to understand the issues these poems raise.

A Phase Diagram Of The Nematic, Smectic A And Smectic C Phases In Liquid Crystals, S. Sali̇hoğlu, H. Yurtseven Jan 1998

A Phase Diagram Of The Nematic, Smectic A And Smectic C Phases In Liquid Crystals, S. Sali̇hoğlu, H. Yurtseven

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this study we have obtained a phase diagram for the nematic, smectic A and smectic C phases in liquid crystals. For this phase diagram we have studied two different mean field models for a mixture of liquid crystalline system. In our first model we consider the NC and AC transitions as first order, and the NA transition as a second order. In our second model we consider the NC and NA transitions as first order, and the AC transition as a second order.


A Mean Field Model For The Coexistence Of Nematic, Smectic A And Smectic C Phases In Liquid Crystals, H. Yurtseven, S. Sali̇hoğlu Jan 1998

A Mean Field Model For The Coexistence Of Nematic, Smectic A And Smectic C Phases In Liquid Crystals, H. Yurtseven, S. Sali̇hoğlu

Turkish Journal of Physics

We present here a mean field model for the nematic-smectic A-smectic C coexistence of a liquid crystal near the NAC point which is a multicritical point. The critical exponents calculated from our model are tricritical expoenents for the order parameters, susceptibility and the specific heat. Our results show that if the NAC point is the tricritical point, then our mean field model describes adequately the liquid crystalline system in the coexistence region of the nematic-smectic A-smectic C phases.

Effects Of Temperature And Time Of Harvest On The Growth Andyield Of Aubergine ( Solanum Melongena L.), Ahmet Kürklü Jan 1998

Effects Of Temperature And Time Of Harvest On The Growth Andyield Of Aubergine ( Solanum Melongena L.), Ahmet Kürklü

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

An experimental study was conducted to define the response of aubergine to different temperatures in controlled greenhouses. Set temperatures of the greenhouses were 14, 18, 22, 26 and 30°C. In terms of vegetative growth, the plant response was the highest to the highest temperature then gradually decreasing for the lower temperatures. This was in contrast with the fruit development since as the temperature decreased from 30°C, mean fruit weight and size increased, and the total fruit yield was highest in 22°C which indicated an optimum temperature. However, there was no optimum for vegetative growth. This was found, by using a …

A Kinetic Study Of The Photolysis Of Ethylferrocene In Chloroform, Son L. Phan, Patrick E. Hoggard Jan 1998

A Kinetic Study Of The Photolysis Of Ethylferrocene In Chloroform, Son L. Phan, Patrick E. Hoggard

Chemistry and Biochemistry

The photooxidation of ethylferrocene to ethylferricinium ion and tetrachloroferrate in CHCl3 under 254 nm irradiation proceeds through light absorption by both ethylferrocene and chloroform. The products remain in solution at concentrations below 10-3 M. The fraction occurring through a solvent-initiated pathway increases during the course of the reaction. A secondary thermal reaction is responsible for generating tetrachloroferrate from ethylferricinium ion. The rate of the reaction increases during the early stages, and the data throughout the course of the reaction are consistent with the rate law ( afs + bfR)/ (1 + c[R]/[P]-d[R]/[Cl ]), where [R] and [P] are the concentrations …
