This notebook paper describes our approach for the action classification task of the THUMOS Challenge 2014. We investigate and exploit the action-object relationship by capturing both motion and related objects. As local descriptors we use HOG, HOF and MBH computed along the improved dense trajectories. For video encoding we rely on Fisher vector. In addition, we employ deep net features learne...

An action recognition algorithm which works with binocular videos is presented. The proposed method uses standard bag-of-words approach, where each action clip is represented as a histogram of visual words. However, instead of using classical monocular HoG/HoF features, we construct features from the scene-flow computed by a matching algorithm on the sequence of stereo images. The resulting alg...

Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a cylindrical container can take on many different spatial forms. Motivated by the results of Hof [Phys. Fluids 11, 2815 (1999)], who observed coexistence of several stable states at a single set of parameter values, we have carried out simulations at the same Prandtl number, that of water, and a radius-to-height aspect ratio of two. We have used two kinds of therm...

The paper attempts to interpret phonetic, lexical, and graphic features of toponyms mentioned in the letters Gradiscan Croats, residents Chunovo village (presently, outskirts Bratislava Slovakia on border with Hungary Austria). These placenames appear three languages: German, Croatian, Hungarian provide an insight whole system local (names villages towns) oral speech inhabitants early 20th cent...

Ab initio calculations using large multiconfigurational self-consistent field wave functions and density functional theory are presented for the rotational g tensors of HOF, H2O, H2S and O3. Rapid convergence toward the basis-set limit is ensured using rotational London atomic orbitals. The effect of zero-point vibrational corrections and the choice of molecular geometries are analyzed and the ...
