A New Method for Estimating Body Height from Uncalibrated Images
We address the problem of estimating a person’s body height from a single uncalibrated image. The novelty of our work lies in that we handle two difficult cases not previously addressed in the literature: (i) the image contains no reference length in the background scene, (ii) the image contains the upper body only. In a nutshell, our method combines well-known ideas from projective geometry an...
متن کاملThe Estimation of Body Weight from Body Measurements in Kilakarsal Sheep of Tamil Nadu, India
Data on body weight and body measurements (body length, height at withers, chest girth and paunch girth) of adult Kilakarsal sheep have been collected from 124 adult animals managed at the farmers filed in Tirunelveli districts of Tami Nadu, India to estimate the body weight from body measurements. The data were subjected to standard statistical analysis using SPSS software and linear regressio...
متن کاملClinical Usefulness of a New Equation for Estimating Body Fat
OBJECTIVE To assess the predictive capacity of a recently described equation that we have termed CUN-BAE (Clínica Universidad de Navarra-Body Adiposity Estimator) based on BMI, sex, and age for estimating body fat percentage (BF%) and to study its clinical usefulness. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted a comparison study of the developed equation with many other anthropometric indices r...
متن کاملHeritability parameters for some body measurements in Turkish Arabian foals
The aim of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters of body measurements in TurkishArabian foals. Records of wither height, front cannon circumference, heart girth, and body length were usedfor body measurements at birth, 6 months of age, 1-year-old and 2-year-old. Heritability of bodymeasurements of Turkish Arabian foals was estimated by using records of foals sired by stallions wh...
متن کاملBody Height and Its Estimation Utilizing Arm Span Measurements in Bosnian and Herzegovinian Adults
Anthropologists recognized the tallness of nations in the Dinaric Alps long time ago. As the modern Bosnian and Herzegovinian fall more into the Dinaric racial classification, the purpose of this study was to examine the body height in Bosnian and Herzegovinian adults as well as the relationship between arm span as an alternative to estimating the body height and body height, which vary in diff...
