A young girl went missing from her home late in the evening in the month of August, 2008 when her enraged relatives and villagers physically assaulted and chased her fiancée who often frequented her home. Two years later, her mother lodged a complaint against the relatives ...

Generating high-quality annotations for object detection and recognition is a challenging important task, especially in relation to safety-critical applications such as autonomous driving (AD). Due the difficulty of perception situations occlusion, degraded weather, sensor failure, objects can go unobserved unlabeled. In this paper, we present CLUE-AD, general-purpose method detecting labeling ...

Lemurs are of great evolutionary and ecological interest. But for at least one species, in their Madagascan homeland and possibly as a result of climate change, drought poses a serious threat. In a research project that has been running for nearly 20 years, Patricia Wright from the Stony Brook University in the state of New York and her coworkers have been studying the behaviour of Madagascar's...

Contextual complexities as a result of the nature of knowledge based resources of organisations are increasingly the bases of competitive advantage. In the third generation of KM theories and techniques, intra-organisational flows of knowledge resources have become as important as the resources themselves. Management of such flows is an imperative rather than an alternative for most organisatio...

This paper presents a novel method for estimating speaker’s affective states based on two contextual features: valence shifters and appropriateness. Firstly, a system for affect analysis is used to recognise specific types of emotions. We improve the baseline system with the analysis of Contextual Valence Shifters (CVS), which determine the semantic orientation of emotive expressions. Secondly,...
