2D Or Not 2D. Column-Switching Techniques, Multidimensional Separations and Chromatography: Approaches and Definitions

2D or not 2D? That is the question.

Recent work in automatic face recognition indicates that the major problem in modeling face processing is to find a meaningful representation for the faces. The difficulty arises from the often noted fact that human faces constitute a set of highly similar objects. Hence, a first constraint imposed upon a facial representation is that it must capture the subtle variations in features and config...

2D or Not 2D: Bridging the Gap Between Tracking and Structure from Motion

In this paper, we address the problem of tracking an unknown object in 3D space. Online 2D tracking often fails for strong outof-plane rotation which results in considerable changes in appearance beyond those that can be represented by online update strategies. However, by modelling and learning the 3D structure of the object explicitly, such effects are mitigated. To address this, a novel appr...

Flood hazard zones using 2d hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing approaches

Increasing frequency and severity of flooding demands identification of flood hazard zones in Kalilangan, Bukidnon in response to the echoing need of better disaster preparedness via enhancing the understanding and awareness of the public on flood characteristics by integrating the use of two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing. Flood simulation was carried out in a two-dimensi...

Liquid-liquid phase coexistence in gold clusters: 2D or not 2D?

The thermodynamics of gold cluster anions (AuN-, N=11,...,14) is investigated using quantum molecular dynamics. Our simulations suggest that AuN- may exhibit a novel, freestanding planar liquid phase which dynamically coexists with a normal three-dimensional liquid. Upon cooling with experimentally realizable cooling rates, the entropy-favored three-dimensional liquid clusters often supercool a...
