Moving Cast Shadow Detection Using Physics-based Features (CVPR 2009)

This document summarizes a research paper about detecting moving cast shadows in videos. It presents an approach that uses physics-based color features and Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) to model shadows. First, it derives normalized spectral ratios as global color features under assumptions of constant ambient lighting and common spectral power distributions of direct light sources. A single GMM then models these global features to characterize shadows. Additionally, pixel-based GMMs describe local gradient intensity distortions to further differentiate shadows similar to backgrounds. The pixel GMMs are updated through confidence-rated learning to accelerate convergence without needing many foreground activities.

The Ministry of Basic Education (MINEDUB) ordered a diagnostic study on the organization and functioning of collegeswithin the framework of the G.T.T.C. reform process. The study carried out by Mrs. Marguerite Altet, a CIEP (French Centre for Educational Research) expert, and published in 2011, highlights numerous pedagogic gaps, namely: - The absence of a sound curriculum, given that syllabuses are presented as a list of contents with 26 disciplines; - The one-year course duration for GCE A/Lstudent-teachers is inadequate; - The heterogeneous academic entry qualification of student-teachersleads to some shortcomings on the part ofGCE O/L student-teachers at the end of the course; - The lack of a synchronized programming of pedagogic activities (practicum and evaluation); - An inadequate training as concernsthe different pedagogic reforms implemented in Basic Education. From this crucial diagnosis confirmed by MINESEC officials, the Minister of Secondary Education with a view to improve on the quality of teachertraining for our basic educational system, decided to draw up new T.T.C.curricula taking into account the political vision advocated by the Head of State. 2. Characteristics of the curricula reviewed following the Competence-Based Approach The new T.T.C. curriculum is drawn up following the Competence-Based Approach(CBA)in respect to the methodological requirements of the development of a curriculum. The process started with the writing of a Teacher‟s Referential of Professional Activities with the collaboration of field experts; this enabled designers to identify basic professional competences to be developed during the initial training of a teacher. The basic professional competences were presented in a Referential of Competences used by the editorial team as supporting document to draw up the current curriculum. Therefore, this document remains a multidisciplinary curriculum which lays emphasis on common abilities otherwise referred to as “cross abilities” while integrating various practical aspects (simulation, practicum, various practical activities, case studies etc.) The new T.T.C. curricula target the five domains of the contents taken from the former syllabuses. These domains are: -Bilingual training; -Didactics of Primary and Nursery school activities; -Sciences of Education; -Educational Technologies; -Reinforced alternated practicum(teaching practice…) The training content is the same for the three levels but its dosage takesinto consideration the entry qualification of student-teachers.

Information Preserving Color Transformation for Protanopia and Deuteranopia (...

This document proposes a new method for recoloring images to make them more comprehensible for those with protanopia and deuteranopia, two types of color blindness. The method aims to preserve color information in the original images while maintaining natural-looking recolored images. It introduces two error functions to measure information preservation and naturalness, which are combined into an objective function using Lagrange multipliers. This function is minimized to obtain optimal color transformation settings. Experimental results show the method can generate more understandable images for those with color deficiencies while keeping recolored images natural-looking for those with normal vision.

Dance is often thought to be solely an entertaining and fun extra-curricular activity. However, is it possible that dancing could actually enhance participants’ academic success? Could the benefits of dance even extend to increase participants’ neurological activity? This video investigates the numerous advantages dance provides and the various perspectives surrounding this topic.

The document provides an overview of the first two of the Ten Commandments. It discusses how God's law serves as a curb, mirror and guideline to keep people from sinning and show them how God wants them to live. The First Commandment requires having no other gods and giving all glory to God alone. The Second Commandment prohibits misusing God's name by cursing, swearing or lying. People disobey these commandments by loving anything more than God or using his name needlessly. The document encourages examining one's own life to confess ways these commandments have been broken and find forgiveness through Christ.

Estimating Human Pose from Occluded Images (ACCV 2009)

We address the problem of recovering 3D human pose from single 2D images, in which the pose estimation problem is formulated as a direct nonlinear regression from image observation to 3D joint positions. One key issue that has not been addressed in the literature is how to estimate 3D pose when humans in the scenes are partially or heavily occluded. When occlusions occur, features extracted from image observations (e.g., silhouettes-based shape features, histogram of oriented gradient, etc.) are seriously corrupted, and consequently the regressor (trained on un-occluded images) is unable to estimate pose states correctly. In this paper, we present a method that is capable of handling occlusions using sparse signal representations, in which each test sample is represented as a compact linear combination of training samples. The sparsest solution can then be efficiently obtained by solving a convex optimization problem with certain norms (such as l1-norm). The corrupted test image can be recovered with a sparse linear combination of un-occluded training images which can then be used for estimating human pose correctly (as if no occlusions exist). We also show that the proposed approach implicitly performs relevant feature selection with un-occluded test images. Experimental results on synthetic and real data sets bear out our theory that with sparse representation 3D human pose can be robustly estimated when humans are partially or heavily occluded in the scenes.

The student created a print music magazine targeted towards Christian teens aged 16-25. To make the magazine appealing to its niche audience, it followed conventions of real magazines, such as using celebrities on the cover and colorful layouts, while adding some unique elements. The student used various technologies like InDesign, Photoshop and social media to construct and gather feedback on the magazine. The final product showed improvements over preliminary versions through more polished editing and layouts.
