Realtime Image-Based Face-To-Camera Distance Estimation And Facial Dimension Measurement, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

This disclosure describes a realtime 2-D image-based human face-to-camera distance estimation and facial dimension measurement system, which is without the requirement of user calibration. The proposed system first uses 2 deep-learning networks for human face localization and facial landmarks detection. Then, the proposed system utilizes facial landmarks generated from the first step to compute the distance between the human face and the camera. The proposed system can be easily extended to generate facial dimensions in realtime. The camera is pre-calibrated. Reference human facial landmarks and their corresponding scale, as well as the camera calibration information, are provided as prior knowledge. …

The Cyclically Configured Concave Mirror Based Composite Light Capturing Configuration Where The Light Reflecting Beam Splitter Is Positioned At A Distance Greater Than Half The Focal Length Of The Concave Mirror, Away From The Concave Mirror Section., Punarjeewa Abeysekera

Defensive Publications Series

This paper describes a cyclically configured concave mirror based composite light capturing configuration where the light reflecting beam splitter is positioned at a distance greater than half the focal length of the concave mirror, away from the concave mirror section. The composite light capturing configuration consists of 4 cyclically arranged light capturing configurations. Each light capturing configuration will contain a beam splitter, a concave mirror part and a sensor. The composite light capturing configuration, utilizing the 4 cyclically arranged light capturing configurations it contains, will have the capability to capture the light rays coming from the scene in front of …

Functional Analysis And Intervention Of Multiply Controlled Behavior, Nicole Carbonelli Rosa

Thesis Projects

More than one function may control problem behavior. Functional analysis helps identify the potential sources of reinforcement that maintain the problem behavior. Interventions such as functional communication training (FCT) and extinction (EXT) have proven effective in decreasing problem behavior and increasing compliance among children with intellectual disabilities. This paper aims to conduct a functional analysis and treatment for children with multiply controlled behaviors by replicating and extending the works of Neidert, Iwata, and Dozier (2005). Intervention procedures consisted of FCT and EXT and were based on each relevant function of behavior for each participant. As a result of the intervention …

Improving The Mental Well-Being Of Children Hospitalized With Chronic Illness, Emily Pedersen

Psychology Honors Projects

The psychological well-being of children hospitalized with chronic illness is of vital importance (Eccleston et al., 2015). In the first part of this project, I documented factors that influence their well-being and identified potential pathways for enhancing psychological health. In the second part, I did qualitative research in the form of interviews with four healthcare professionals who work closely with hospitalized children. I offer recommendations based on their observations, including a new type of staff position and closer collaboration among hospital staff.

Étant Donnés: Checkmate, Rrose Sélavy, Callagh Mays

Art and Art History Honors Papers

Marcel Duchamp’s final work of art, Étant Donnés: La chute d’eau, 2. Le gaz d’eclairage (Given: 1. The Waterfall, 2. The Illuminating Gas), installed at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, was debuted after his death in 1968. The work was revealed to have been produced in secrecy between 1946-1966 and installed according to the artist’s detailed instructions. As viewers approach, they are confronted with an antique wooden door save for two peep holes, through which they find a motionless naked figure supporting a gas lamp, foregrounding an animated waterfall. The female form presenting a phallic object, the gas lamp, and …

Theorizing Folk Cinema, Cora M M Lewis

Media and Cultural Studies Honors Projects

This honors project theorizes the concept of folk cinema. The project grapples with the complex history of the study of folklore and cinema’s historic inaccessibility as a medium in order to position folk cinema as a revolutionary project capable of reimagining both cinema and folklore. Avoiding concrete definitions or the urge to label any specific films as folk cinema, the project explores folk cinema theoretically through the experimental Spanish short film Aguaespejo Granadino, the films of the Bolivian Third Cinema filmmaking collective the Ukamau Group, and finally my own creative intervention via the creation of a short diary film.
