Differential training on the CNN regressors R1 through R3 generates a multichotomy that minimizes the predicted count by choosing the best regressor for a given crowd scene patch. However, the trained switch is not ideal and the manifold separating the space of patches is complex to learn (see Section 5.2 of the main paper). To mitigate the effect of switch inaccuracy and inherent complexity of...

Introduction: Current advances in chip fabrication allow high on-chip memory density. However, the pin count has mainly remained the same, thus limiting the number of ports a switch chip can support. A three-stage Clos-network switch [1] uses small switch modules, called input module (IM), central module (CM), and output module (OM), to implement a large switch (i.e. with a large number of port...

Antibody class switching is mediated by somatic recombination between switch regions of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene locus. Targeting of recombination to particular switch regions is strictly regulated by cytokines through the induction of switch transcripts starting 5' of the repetitive switch regions. However, switch transcription as such is not sufficient to target switch recombinatio...

Introduction: In order to overcome the throughput limit of the single input-queued (SIQ) packet switch, a number of bu ering strategies have been put forward in recent years. Among them, the virtual output-queued (VOQ) switch is receiving considerable attention, since it can yield 100% throughput depending on the scheduling algorithm employed. As a special case of the multiple input-queued (MIQ...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are used in a wide range of applications due to their high efficiency and high power density. In this paper, sensorless four-switch direct power control (DPC) method with the sector to sector commutations ripple minimization for BLDC motor control is proposed. The main features of the proposed DPC method are: (1) fast dynamic response (2) easy implementation (3) use o...
