In this paper, we present a novel approach for human interaction recognition from videos. We introduce high-level descriptions called interactive phrases to express binary semantic motion relationships between interacting people. Interactive phrases naturally exploit human knowledge to describe interactions and allow us to construct a more descriptive model for recognizing human interactions. W...

The effects of different anions on the extent of electrothermal supercharging of proteins from aqueous ammonium and sodium salt solutions were investigated. Sulfate and hydrogen phosphate are the most effective anions at producing high charge state protein ions from buffered aqueous solution, whereas iodide and perchlorate are ineffective with electrothermal supercharging. The propensity for th...

Silicone rubber (SiR) is used as an insulating material for cables installed in a nuclear power plant. Gamma rays irradiated SiR sheets for various periods at temperatures of 145 and 185 ◦C, and the resultant changes were analyzed by examining complex permittivity spectra and surface potential decay characteristics. Three different processes, namely, instantaneous polarization, electrode polari...

Kinetic impacts on a binary asteroid will produce ejecta debris as well causing disturbance to the spin-orbit motion of components. Understanding complex interactions between and system can be crucial both theoretical study mission design. In this paper, we develop detailed model for dynamical evolution within system, in which combined various perturbations considered collisional process with a...

The toxic effects of three agrochemicals (fosthiazate, metalaxyl-M and imidacloprid) and copper were investigated in this study on the crustacean Daphnia magna. Copper was the most toxic tested compound with the lowest EC50 value, equal to 0.11 mg/L. Among the three agrochemicals, fosthiazate was the most toxic with an EC50 value equal to 0.32 mg/L, about two orders of magnitude lower than the ...

the ingested nitrates sourced from tap water, food, chemicals and pharmaceuticals areconverted to nitrites in the body surfaces by bacteria and then, the nitrite ions can lead thestructural changing in hemoglobin. in the present work, aggregation of the purified hemoglobinin adult (hba) and in fetus or newborn (hbf) in the presence of nitrite ions were studied.hemoglobin aggregation was perform...
