We describe an algorithm and software for creating variable resolution displays in real time, contingent upon the direction of gaze. The algorithm takes as input a video sequence and an arbitrary, real-valued, two-dimensional map that specifies a desired amount of filtering (blur) at each pixel location relative to direction of gaze. For each input video image the follow operations are performe...

Hairless mice (HR/ICR) were irradiated chronically with suberythemal doses of UV-B radiation (ultraviolet radiation in wavelength 290-320 nm) immediately before and after production, with cyanoacrylate r sin, of an artificial temporary groove parallel to the midline, which is an unusual direction for wrinkle formation. Data for UV radiation-exposed skin beibre or after production of an artifici...

A synthetic fingerprint generation method is presented and implemented in this paper. A new combination model for the orientation field of fingerprint is applied to generate more realistic fingerprint direction map, and a new expression of the fingerprint density map is presented. Then a modified Gabor filter is used for ridge pattern generation. This method consists of two main processes: Firs...

Due to a diffusive nearest-neighbor coupling, phase-synchronized states can emerge in two-dimensional chaotic coupled map lattices. By defining a direction phase (like a spin with up or down direction) as the direction of two sequential iterations of the logistic map, we find several novel kinds of phase synchronization which correspond to four different regions in a phase diagram. For the phas...

This paper describes a vision system based on the photometric stereo system and a model generator called GEOMAP. The photometric stereo system obtains a needle map from shading information of an observed image. An extended Gaussian image of the needle map reduces possible attitudes of an object relative to the viewer. A model-generator called GEOMAP generates a needle map which would be observe...

In this paper the wayfinding criterion always to `proceed in the direction of the target', which is the core of the least-angle strategy, is examined. Although human route-selection behavior is much more complex than this, results of empirical studies presented in the literature suggest that preference for most direct direction plays an important role in human route choice within street network...

We present a system for visuo-auditory substitution that takes as input a depth map, and produces as output a corresponding melody. A real-time apparatus based on the Kinect R ©, a computer and a headphone, is developed within our team. Earlier experiment with the system shows that, when equipped, a sighted person temporary deprived from vision can therefore move in an unknown indoor environmen...

• We use three popular CNN models: VGG16, VGG19 and AlexNet. • To limit rescaling, the last pooling stage is removed and the stride of the last but one pooling layer is decreased. • We take feature maps at three different locations of the FCN, and concatenate them to form a single tensor. • A 3 x 3 convolutional layer learns 64 saliency-specific feature maps, then a 1 x 1 convolution learns to ...

purpose : vitreoretinal surgery can be difficult or impossible in patients with corneal opacity. one solution for this problem is use of temporary keratoprosthesis (tkp). we report anatomical and visual outcomes of this combined surgery in our institution. methods : we retrospectively reviewed charts of patients in whom a tkp was used between 2006 and 2010 with follow-up of at least six months....

The culinary industry is one of the sectors that support economy in Indonesia. Even during COVID-19 pandemic where average experienced a decline, was able to survive with digitalization strategy. Study program Tourism Culinary Business study at Ciputra University create Entrepreneurs. One methods used generate innovation examine teaching products offered through Value Proposition Canvas. purpos...
