TIP (Tour Into the Picture) was introduced by Horry et al. HAA97]. Given only one picture, a viewer can tour into the scene as painted on the picture. Based on our implementation of TIP, we noticed a problem: the visual quality drops drastically when the viewpoint tours into the scene. It contradicted the real world experience. We addressed this problem by introducing the use of multiresolution...

Chromatin is the ensemble of genomic DNA and a large number of proteins. Various genome-wide mapping techniques have begun to reveal that, despite the tremendous complexity, chromatin organization is governed by simple principles. This review discusses the principles that drive the spatial architecture of chromatin, as well as genome-wide-binding patterns of chromatin proteins.

In each of the four cases presented, a deleterious mutation was identified. However, in clinical practice, the majority of germline genetic testing results are “uninformative negative,” even among individuals who have personal and/or family histories that are highly suggestive of a cancer predisposition syndrome.[1,2] In other words, comprehensive testing (eg, full-sequence and large rearrangem...

Pictures don't live in isolation from a context of comprehension and response. According to Gretchen Barbatsis, the notion that meaning is something added to a piece of art has important connotation in the way we conceptualize art. The dynamic understanding of visual interpretation is a mutual process, in which the artwork and the viewer add something to one another. Art conveys meanings, refle...

Some recent developments in the phenomenology of the lightest scalar glueball are summarised. Tools for determining the gluonic content of a resonance of known mass, width and J from its branching fraction in radiative quarkonium decays and production cross section in γγ collisions are presented. Two qq̄−G mixing schemes for J = 0++, inspired by the lattice, are shown to lead to similar phenomen...
