A novel fusion method for semantic concept detection in images, called tree fusion, is proposed. Various kinds of features are given to different classifiers. Then, according to the importance of features and effectiveness of classifiers, the results of feature-classifier pairs are ranked and fused using C4.5 algorithm. Experimental results conducted on the MSRC and PASCAL VOC 2007 datasets hav...

We work with a generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind related to the boson normal ordering problem (P. Blasiak et al.). We show that these numbers appear as part of the coefficients of expressions in which certain sequences of products of binomials, together with their partial sums, are written as linear combinations of some other binomials. We show that the number arrays formed ...

A triangle {a(n, k)}0≤k≤n of nonnegative numbers is LC-positive if for each r, the sequence of polynomials ∑n k=r a(n, k)q k is q-log-concave. It is double LC-positive if both triangles {a(n, k)} and {a(n, n − k)} are LC-positive. We show that if {a(n, k)} is LC-positive then the log-concavity of the sequence {xk} implies that of the sequence {zn} defined by zn = ∑n k=0 a(n, k)xk, and if {a(n, ...

We prove some new concentration inequalities for self-bounding functions using the entropy method. As an application, we recover Talagrand’s convex distance inequality. The new Bernstein-like inequalities for self-bounding functions are derived thanks to a careful analysis of the so-called Herbst argument. The latter involves comparison results between solutions of differential inequalities tha...

By reading, you can know the knowledge and things more, not only about what you get from people to people. Book will be more trusted. As this data abstraction and program development using pascal, it will really give you the good idea to be successful. It is not only for you to be success in certain life you can be successful in everything. The success can be started by knowing the basic knowle...

Mathematics has long been a preferential subject of reflection for philosophers, inspiring them since antiquity in developing their theories of knowledge and their metaphysical doctrines. Given the close connection between philosophy and mathematics, it is hardly surprising that some major philosophers, such as Descartes, Leibniz, Pascal and Lambert, have also been major mathematicians. In the ...

The abstract (or sem antic) syntax of the Pascal language is identi­ fied. and a linea r representation fo r the trees so formed within the framework of the concrete syntax fo r that language is imposed. The indentation schem e so form ed, augm ented with a sm all numDer of pragm atic considera tions, is com pared with several previously proposed formatting schem es for Pascal and an example of...

There are several independent sets of findings concerning the neural basis of reading. One set demonstrates a powerful relationship between phonological processing and reading skills. Another set reveals a relationship between visual responses in the motion pathways and reading skills. It is widely assumed that these two findings are unrelated. We tested the hypothesis that phonological awarene...
