Im2Vid: Future Video Prediction for Static Image Action Recognition
Static image action recognition aims at identifying the action performed in a given image. Most existing static image action recognition approaches use high-level cues present in the image such as objects, object human interaction, or human pose to better capture the action performed. Unlike …

Learning the dynamics of deformable objects and recursive boundary estimation using curve evolution techniques
… the problem of estimating object boundaries in image data. We propose two primary algorithms, one which jointly estimates the underlying field and boundary in a static image and another which performs image segmentation across a temporal sequence. Some motivating applications come from the earth …

Estimating the material properties of fabric through the observation of motion
… previously developed to compactly represent static image textures to describe video textures such as fabric motion. A discriminatively trained regression model is then used to predict the physical properties of fabric from these features. The success of our model is demonstrated on a new …

Preliminary development and flight trials of a cruise altitude and speed optimization decision support tool
… minimum cost tunnel would even be useful as a static image included as part of the flight plan to provide situational awareness and facilitate coordination with dispatchers.

Internal Representations and the Importance of Active Control in Dynamic Spatial Orientation
… 1 and 2, the blackout was followed by a static image. Subjects in these experiments were required to indicate whether they were in the correct or incorrect orientation following the blackout. In Experiment 3, simulated locomotion continued for a period following the blackout. Subjects …

The development of a hybrid virtual reality/video view-morphing display system for teleoperation and teleconferencing
… of this study is to extend the desktop panoramic static image viewer concept (e.g., Apple QuickTime VR; IPIX) to support immersive real time viewing, so that an observer wearing a head-mounted display can make free head movements while viewing dynamic scenes rendered in real time stereo using …

The differentiation of extrahepatic biliary atresia from the neonatal hepatitis syndrome
… Liver shape was determined from the anterior static image of the colloid scan. The results show a significant difference between the EHBA and the NHS patients in the rate of uptake of p-butyl IDA, in the ratio of the rate of uptake of p-butyl IDA/the rate of uptake of colloid and in the …

“Revolution” in the Epic Form in Contemporary French Literature
… relation that might reduce it to a passive, static image. Yet this loses access to the real in a way that is equally stultifying. In response, I propose a speculative figure of the epic as immanently co-emergent with the real, that is, shaped by and shaping the real. Such a figure takes the …

Real-time video sentiment analysis through the use of snapshots
… their performances when applied to different images or video streams. As such, the goal of this dissertation is to develop a program that can analyse a real-time video stream and take in each of the frames as an image snapshot which can be in turn processed to efficiently identify faces and …

Labeling and modeling large databases of videos
… we can tell what type of scene and location an image depicts, describe what objects live in it, their material properties, or their spatial arrangement. These comprise descriptions of a scene and are majorly studied areas in computer vision. This thesis, however, hypotheses that observers have …

The Effects of Virtual Environments on Recall in Participants of Differing Levels of Field Dependence
… when presented with virtual environments versus static images? 3) Do field-dependent participants score higher on a test of recall when presented with a virtual environment? An experimental design using a sample of Virginia Tech students was employed in this study. The analysis consisted of a 2 X …

A framework for developing 4D LOD on construction projects
… detail and non-graphical information of the static geometric design model. However, up to now there is limited research methodically investigating the issue of LOD within 4D BIM applications. This research aims to develop a framework for specifying the LOD of 4D BIM to enhance communication …

Molecular and Kinetic Characteristics of wild type and mutant Porphobilinogen deaminase

Empirical Analysis of Disguised Relationships between Formal Economy Firms and Informal Economy Enterprises
… Furthermore, disguised relationships create the image of dynamism replete with, metaphorically speaking, give-take, push-pull and chase-evade. More specifically, the emergent model illustrates the interactive practices through four mechanisms: (a) informal enterprises gaining social acceptability …
