ing hybridity, analyses should distinguish between the two types of intermediacy. (1) Hybrid indices fail to do so. (2) Principal components analysis does so only in an ambiguous way. (3) Pictorialized scatter diagrams properly present the evidence for an interpretation that is intuitive. (4) Counting characters as intermediate or not-intermediate is an explicit approach that allows for statist...

In this paper we present a multi-zoom framework for activity analysis in situations requiring combinations of both detailed and coarse views of the scene. The epipolar geometry is employed in several novel ways in the context of activity analysis. Detecting and tracking objects in time and consistently labeling these objects across zoom levels are two necessary tasks for such activity analysis....

Traffic oscillation, stop and go traffic, is created by different reasons such as: sudden speed drop of leader vehicle. Stop and go traffic commonly is observed in congested freeways results in traffic oscillation. Many theories had been presented to define congestion traffic based on laws of physics such as: thermodynamics and fluid. But, these theories could not explain the complexity of driv...
