Most agronomic models estimate canopy light interception using the Beer-Lambert law. This method only accounts for leaf area index (LAI) and leaf angle distribution (LAD) without considering the crop’s structural heterogeneity in space, or soil-leaf or leaf-leaf radiative scattering. These factors have been extensively studied during the past ten years e.g; (Luquet et al. 1998; Nouvellon et al....

To recognize prohibition traffic sign, this paper proposes a novel method that is trained by small number of samples and uses the feature histogram oriented gradient (HOG) support vector machine (SVM) network. The recognition mainly divided into three stages. first stage image preprocessing, which includes interception based on ellipse detection, resizing, Gamma correction. In part interception...

The .NET Framework allows developers to add run-time services to their classes by specifying them in metadata. This metadata-driven service selection is a very powerful and promising mechanism, closely related to ideas developed in the Aspect-Oriented Programming community. Interestingly, the .NET framework supports both services implemented by weaving and services implemented by interception. ...

We optimize the human interception model performing fast visually guided tasks. Based on the original paper that raised the novel visuomotor framework, we implement and extend the vision model of a human catching a ball achieving a faster and more accurate result. As proposed in that paper, eye movements plays a central role in coordinating movements of the head, hand and body and each intercep...
