Foreign Object
<p><em>Foreign Object</em> comprises the first part of a novel series that seeks to complicate the concepts of the Anthropocene epoch in fiction through its investigations of form and narrative, as well as the invasive properties of a recursive society determined to ignore or normalise climate …

Visual object tracking
Visual object tracking is a critical task in many computer-vision-related applications, such as surveillance and robotics. If the tracking target is provided in the first frame of a video, the tracker will predict the location and the shape of the target in the following frames. Despite the …

Persistent object system
A persistent object system (PO-system) is a system used for storing and retrieving persistent objects. Such systems already exist, but they are programming language and database dependent and, in many cases, difficult to use. We have designed and implemented a persistent object system which should …

Object-centric Mapping
This thesis focuses on building an object-centric 3D map given an RGB image sequence, in which the basic elements are object instances. This is fundamentally different from conventional visual Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) that describes the geometry of an environment using geometric …

Fast object detection
… are composite chunks of meaning. We show that object detectors could be better at detecting some visual phrases than detecting single objects. This process of image understanding needs to use a lot of detectors. Running conventional object detectors at the rate required for image understanding …

Random generation of valid object configurations for testing object-oriented programs
A unit test case for an object-oriented program typically requires the creation of an object configuration on which the method under test is invoked. Certain approaches, such as RANDOOP, perform feedback-directed random test generation. RANDOOP incrementally generates test cases by only extending …

Using the Internet for object image retrieval and object image classification
… for two important computer vision tasks: object image retrieval and object image classification. Case study 1 is on object image retrieval. With specified object class labels, we aim to retrieve relevant images found on web pages using an analysis of text around the image and of image …

Making machines that make : object-oriented hardware meets object-oriented software
… for machine building. Using insights from object-oriented programming, end-to-end principles in network design, and the open system interconnection model, I propose a new paradigm for machine building called object-oriented hardware. In this paradigm, software objects and hardware objects …

A study on the effect of target object size in object detection
… increase in the efficiency and accuracy of object detection models through the use of Region-based Convolutional Neural Networks (RCNN). Studies have been carried out to improve object detection models. However, the detection of small objects still poses numerous challenges for the said …

A multi-level brain-computer interface for object recognition and object identification
… designed to decode a user's intention towards an object, determining whether it pertains to object recognition or identification, and then channel the data to an algorithm trained specifically for those tasks. It consists of two principal components: one algorithm crafted to differentiate between …

Object-process networks & object-process diagrams : implementation issues for oil exploration systems
… different ways to increase the ability of OPN (Object-Process- Network), a system-architecture meta-language, to model complex systems and identify architectures to address those systems. It proposes ways to generate "out-of-the-box" solutions to technical problems, to weight a portfolio of …

Learning object behaviour models
… including automated visual surveillance, object tracking, gesture recognition, and the generation of realistic object behaviours within animations, virtual worlds, and computer generated film sequences. The utility of the behaviour modelling framework is further extended through the …

Object-oriented data modeling
The object-oriented paradigm models local behavior, and to a lesser extent, the structure of a problem. Semantic data models describe structure and semantics. This thesis unifies the behavioral focus of the object-oriented paradigm with the structural and semantic focus of semantic data models. The …

Object Manipulation During Development
… children naturally explore and manipulate objects with their hands and fingers, becoming more skillful with practice and with age. The development of manual dexterity is important for several critical motor milestones in childhood and has a huge impact on self-care and learning tasks. …

Object Modelling by Example
… we develop a number of methods for modelling 3D objects by example. Jump maps provide fast and flexible reuse of texture imagery in object modelling. Geodesic fans extend the local statistical techniques forming the basis for traditional image-based data-driven methods to 3D surfaces, and …

Single view object completion
… is to achieve complete reconstruction of a 3d object from a single depth image observation. Much effort has been put on multi-view reconstruction of objects with substantial success, but single view recon- struction is still very limited. Initial methods produce only partial reconstructions by …
