Digitizing Treasure Island's Museum's Collection
<p>This project plan will detail the preparations and research needed to digitize the Treasure Island Museum's collection database. Treasure Island Museum was founded in 1976 as a Naval and Bay Area history museum. It closed when the Treasure Island Navy base closed in 1998. The museum reopened in …

An improved sigma-delta modulator for digitizing carrier band measurements
Draper Laboratory currently employs a third-order Sigma-Delta modulator to digitize the outputs from microelectromechanical sensors at the intermediate frequency prior to demodulation inside a field programmable gate array. This modulator, which is built on a .5[mu]m CMOS process, is to be used as …

Design of Ultrawideband Digitizing Receivers for the VHF Low Band
… design methodology for direct sampling wideband digitizing receivers. The methodology is then demonstrated by example for three representative receivers. Finally, improvements to the analysis are suggested.

The playful Karoo: digitizing the South African Anthropocene in video games
The Karoo in South Africa, with its distinctive natural landscape, remains an underexplored setting in video games. In this thesis, I reimagine Jane Rosenthal’s novel, Souvenir (2004), as a virtual reality video game, using its speculative, science-fiction vision of the Karoo to immerse the player …

Digitizing the Aura: A Systems Update for the Contemporary Art World
<p>During the digital tide of the last several decades, the material, metaphysical and economic properties of art have evolved in response to the ever-accelerating growth of cybernetics. The contemporary art ecosystem (CAE) has long been considered “the last unregulated financial market”; then …

Toward digitizing the human experience : a new resource for natural language processing
A long-standing goal of Artificial Intelligence is to program computers that understand natural language. A basic obstacle is that computers lack the common sense that even small children acquire simply by experiencing life, and no one has devised a way to program this experience into a computer. …

Digitizing a Three-Dimensional Brain Atlas: Image Sequence Alignment and Volumetric Encoding
A 3D brain digital atlas is an important tool for neuroscience research. Many different imaging technologies such as MRI, CT, PET, microscopic imaging, and wet section photography, etc., are available. Among the technologies, cryosectioning followed by wet section photography can yield the highest …

Integrating digitizing pen technology and machine learning with the Clock Drawing Test
… learning tools for analysis of CDT results, the digitizing pen has been used to computerize this diagnostic test. In order to successfully integrate digitizing pen technology with the CDT, a digit recognition algorithm was developed to reduce the need for manual classification of the data …

The implications of digitizing and the Internet for "fair use" in South Africa
… serve as a model. In part III, the impacts of digitizing and the Internet for the fair use doctrine will be examined, and part IV will, in some detail, explore the rights and obligations of libraries in an increasingly digitised world. After summarizing parts II-IV, part V will draw a …

Effect of manual digitizing error on the accuracy and precision of polygon area and line length
Manual digitizing has been recognized by investigators as a significant source of map error in GIS, but the error characteristics have not been well defined. This thesis presents a methodology for simulating manual digitizing error. Stream mode digitizing error was modeled using autoregressive …

Positional accuracy in a natural resource database: comparison of a single-photo resection versus affine registration
… employed to collect the digitized data: manual digitizing from topographic maps and aerial photographs followed by an affine transformation, and manual digitizing from aerial photographs while applying a single-photo space resection. Two study sites, one in low terrain relief and one in high …

Exploring the screening power of the Digital Maze Completion test
… The test incorporates a combination of a digitizing pen, carefully designed mazes, and sophisticated software. The subject's behavior while solving the maze has potential to reveal the nuances in their cognitive state, which can be used for early diagnosis of impairments such as …

The development of a method for semi-automatic classification of built-up areas from aerial imagery
… agency, currently relies on manual methods for digitizing features and detecting changes. These methods are time consuming and labour intensive, and rely on the skills and interpretation of the operator. It is therefore necessary to move towards more automated methods in the production process …
