A new idea of an abandoned object detection system for road traffic surveillance systems based on three-dimensional image information is proposed in this paper to prevent traffic accidents. A novel Binocular Information Reconstruction and Recognition (BIRR) algorithm is presented to implement the new idea. As initial detection, suspected abandoned objects are detected by the proposed static for...

loaded and a portion of the nitrate is absorbed by the blood stream as nitrate and nitrite. Some of the nitrate Nitrate contained in forage may pose performance and health risks that is absorbed recycles back to the rumen through to ruminants. With timely and accurate assessment of forage nitrate levels, steps to reduce the risks of excessive nitrate intake by livestock saliva thereby adding ag...

Examining the planning of cemeteries in the urbanism system of Iran does not show a goodcondition. In fact, cemeteries in the most Persian cities have become large-scale open spaces outside the city. This couldcause irreparable damage to the cities because of the partial and/or improper use of the capacity of urban lands. Alongwith this, historical cemeteries within the cities have been abandon...

Abstract Abandoned agricultural lands often accumulate soil carbon (C) following depletion of C by cultivation. The potential for this recovery to provide significant storage benefits depends on the rate accumulation, which, in turn, may depend nutrient supply rates. We tracked almost four decades intensive disturbance along an experimentally imposed gradient nitrogen (N) added annually combina...
