Rendering large scenes with many complex objects places prohibitive requirements on modern graphics hardware. For example, while methods for rendering near photo-realistic vegetation scenes have been described in the literature, they require minutes of computation. In this paper we present scene and LOD management techniques for achieving interactive frame rates for a forest walk-through. The p...

In response to the stark gender disparity that plagued blockchain in its early days, a range of 'women blockchain' initiatives emerged, some more effective than others. Blockchain scenes including 'meetups,' conferences, and hackathons, present ideal sites observe these tensions. This study is technofeminist discourse analysis based on participant observations at events interviews with women wh...

Cha A novel algorithm for coding flash scenes is proposed. In principle, flash scenes can be detected by analyzing the histogram differences between frames. The proposed algorithm then suggests an adaptive coding order techni...

Scene recognition is a fundamental and open problem in computer vision. It is an essential component of a variety of real-world applications, including image search, robotics, social media analysis, and many others. The key to success in scene recognition is to well understand the rich semantics embedded in scenes. For example, it is intuitive to label airport for a scene of sky, airplane, road...

Semantics is a part of linguistic by which it can be analyzed the meaning of the words and sentences of a text and identified the part of speech with regard to semantics. This is a descriptive-analytic research and it deals with studying the meaning of ‘promise’ in the Holy Quran based on principles of semantics with a collocation approach by library methodology. Also, by virtue of ...

In our everyday world, we typically have an expectancy as to the kinds of scenes that we will see from one glance to the next. Also, many of the scenes that we do see are familiar in the sense that they have been experienced before. Do these factors influence the perception of a scene? In three experiments, priming subjects with a verbal descriptor of a scene was not found to improve reliably t...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of $g$-dual frames for Hilbert $C^{*}$-modules, and then the properties and stability results of $g$-dual frames  are given.  A characterization of $g$-dual frames, approximately dual frames and dual frames of a given frame is established. We also give some examples to show that the characterization of $g$-dual frames for Riesz bases in Hilbert spaces is ...

Bounding Volume Hierarchies (BVHs) and k-d trees have been used to create interactive ray tracing. Ray tracing dynamic scenes using nVidia’s R © OptiX TM has already provided thirty to sixty frames per second or better. In this paper, we implement space partitioning methods, such as grid method and the proximity clouds (PCs), on multiple GPUs. Our motivation is to investigate the use of such me...

Extending and improving the concepts: woven frame and fusion frames, we introduce the notion of woven fusion frames in Hilbert spaces. We clarify our extension and generalization by some examples of woven frames and woven fusion frames. Also, we present some properties of woven fusion frames, especially we show that for given two woven frames of sequences, one can build woven fusion frames and ...
