A hypsometric map is a type of map used to represent topographic characteristics by filling different map areas with diverging colors. The setting of appropriate diverging colors is essential for the map to reveal topographic details. When lunar real environmental exploration programs are performed, large-scale hypsometric maps with a high resolution and greater topographic detail are helpful. ...

The generative topographic mapping (GTM) has been proposed as a statistical model to represent high dimensional data by means of a sparse lattice of points in latent space, such that visualization, compression, and data inspection become possible. Original GTM is restricted to Euclidean data points in a vector space. Often, data are not explicitly embedded in a Euclidean vector space, rather pa...

In this paper, we present the system developed by GTMUVigo team for the Multimedia Person Discovery in Broadcast TV task at MediaEval 2016. The proposed approach consists in a novel strategy for person discovery which is not based on speaker and face diarisation as in previous works. In this system, the task is approached as a person recognition problem: there is an enrolment stage, where the v...

Some applications such as the autonomous navigation in natural terrain and the automation of map making process require high-level scene descriptions as well as geometrical representation of the natural terrain environments. In this paper, we present methods for building high level terrain descriptions, referred as topographic maps, by extracting terrain features like "peaks", "pits", "ridges",...

Development of meaningful elearning materials has become critical for many organisations in the corporate space, particularly those whose workforce is spread over huge geographical areas. Perhaps even located in different countries, and/or different campuses. The Next GTM network is providing rural and regional customers with their first-ever taste of broadband connectivity. The Next GTM networ...
