• General method description:This paper addresses the problem of continuous gesture recognition with convolutional neutral networks (ConvNets) using depth maps sequences. Unlike the common isolated recognition scenario, the gesture boundaries are here unknown, and one has to solve two problems: segmentation and recognition. For segmentation, we first obtained the begin and end frames of each ge...

Growth and reproductive attributes were determined for Capoeta damascina, an endemic fish species from west of Iran. A total of 147 specimens of both sexes were sampled monthly from November 2008 to October 2009. The overall sex ratio was female biased. Males were aged 0-4 years and females 0-5 years. The von Bertalanffy growth parameters were estimated as Linf=34.81 cm, k=0.27 year-1, t0=-0.65...
