Bimodal Active Stereo Vision
We present a biologically inspired active vision system that incorporates two modes of perception. A peripheral mode provides a broad and coarse perception of where mass is in the scene in the vicinity of the current fixation point, and how that mass is moving. It involves fusion of actively acquired depth data into a 3D occupancy grid. A foveal mode then ensures coordinated stereo fixation upo...
متن کاملAre star formation rates of galaxies bimodal?
Star formation rate (SFR) distributions of galaxies are often assumed to be bimodal with modes corresponding to star-forming and quiescent galaxies, respectively. Both classes of galaxies are typically studied separately, and SFR distributions of star-forming galaxies are commonly modelled as lognormals. Using both observational data and results from numerical simulations, I argue that this div...
متن کاملBimodal Galaxies and Bimodality in Globular Cluster Systems
Various galaxy properties are not continuous over a large range in mass but rather reveal a remarkable transition or “bimodality” at a stellar mass of M,. These properties include colors, stellar populations, X-ray 10 3 # 10 emission, and mass-to-light ratios. This behavior has been interpreted as the transition from hot to cold flows by Dekel & Birnboim. Here we explore whether globular cluste...
متن کاملThe Case against Bimodal Star Formation in Elliptical Galaxies
We consider the present-day photometric and chemical properties of elliptical galaxies, adopting the bimodal star formation scenario of Elbaz, Arnaud & Vangioni-Flam (1995). These models utilise an initial mass function (IMF) biased heavily toward massive stars during the early phases of galactic evolution, leading to early Type II supernovae-driven galactic winds. A subsequent lengthy, milder,...
متن کاملOn a New Bimodal Normal Family
The unimodal distributions are frequently used in the theorical statistical studies. But in applied statistics, there are many situations in which the unimodal distributions can not be fitted to the data. For example, the distribution of the data outside the control zone in quality control or outlier observations in linear models and time series may require to be a bimodal. These situations, oc...
