Motion concepts mean those concepts containing motion information such as racing car and dancing. In order to achieve high retrieval accuracy comparing with those static concepts such as car or person in semantic retrieval tasks, the temporal information has to be considered. Additionally, if a video sequence is captured by an amateur using a hand-held camera containing signi ̄cant camera motion...

Impervious surface area is a key indicator of environmental quality. Satellite remote sensing of impervious surface has focused on subpixel analysis via various forms of statistical estimation, subpixel classification, and spectral mixture analysis, using medium resolution Landsat TM or ETM+ data. Maps of impervious surface area from these studies provide useful inputs to planning and managemen...

Despite the progress in agent oriented software engineering, there is still a long way before achieving maturity. Among others, there is a lack of shared experience in evaluating the cost when developing software using the agent paradigm. This paper provides some results on this issue. It collects data from real agent based projects and gives hints for the application of existing software cost ...

We propose a query-by-text system for modeling a heterogeneous data set of music and words. We quantitatively show that our system can both annotate a novel song with semantically meaningful words and retrieve relevant unlabeled songs from a database given a text-based query. We explain two feature extraction methods useful for summarizing the audio content of a song. We describe a supervised m...

This paper presents a method for occluded object based motion estimation and tracking system in dynamic image sequences using particle filter with 3D reconstruction. A unique characteristic of this study is its ability to cope with partial occlusion based continuous motion estimation using particle filter inspired from the mirror neuron system in human brain. To update a prior knowledge about t...

This paper is mainly developed around the diagonal section which strongly related to tail dependence coefficients as defined in Nelsen [19]. Hence, we propose a flexible method for estimating based on new smooth estimation of Bernstein polynomial approximation. To assess performance estimators conduct Monte-Carlo simulation study. As result study, both perform satisfactory performance. Also, me...

pulse-width modulated (pwm) adjustable frequency drives (afds) are extensively used in industries for control of induction motors. it has led to significant advantages in terms of the performance, size, and efficiency but the output voltage waveform no longer remains sinusoidal. hence, overshoots, high rate of rise, harmonics and transients are observed in the voltage wave. they increase voltag...

one of the most important and valuable goal of software development life cycle is software cost estimation or sce. during the recent years, sce has attracted the attention of researchers due to huge amount of software project requests. there have been proposed so many models using heuristic and meta-heuristic algorithms to do machine learning process for sce. cocomo81 is one of the most popular...

The demand for mass custom parts is increasing, estimating the cost of to a high degree efficiency matter great concern most manufacturing companies. Under premise machining operations, estimation based on features and processes yields accuracy, but it necessitates accurately identifying part’s establishing relationship between feature cost. Accordingly, recognition method syntactic pattern pro...
