In th i s paper we present a novel improvement to existing schemes for a b r u p t shot change detection. Existing schemes declare a shot change whenever t h e f rame to f rame histogram difference (FFD) value is above a particular threshold. In such a n approach, a high value for t h e threshold results in a small number of false a larms a n d a large number of missed detections while a low va...

\Scene retrieval method for video database applications using temporal condition changes," in Proc. 5 Summary and future work In this work, two important problems of video databases were addressed. For each problem, a solution based on information readily available in compressed video was presented. As the performance of the shot detection scheme suggests, it is possible to locate shot boundari...

A mathematical model is developed and tested with plant data for the ammonia cold shot converter of Razi Petrochemical Complex. The model is based on a material and energy balance in a differential element of beds and is subjected to the assumptions of uniform distribution of temperature and composition through a general cross section and negligible mass and heat transfer in axial direction. Th...

The fixed duration of a team-handball game and its continuously changing situations incorporate an inherent temporal pressure. Also, the target's position is not foreknown but online determined by the player's interceptive processing of visual information. These ecological limitations do not favour throwing performance, particularly in novice players, and are not reflected in previous experimen...

Longitudinal and transverse phase space information has been obtained from a statistical analysis of fluctuations in the radiation spectrum of an electron bunch. Uncorrelated shot noise fluctuations in longitudinal beam density result in incoherent radiation with a spectrum that consists of spikes, with width inversely proportional to the bunch length. Measurements were performed at l 620 nm on...

We study the noise properties of ballistic conductors with carriers satisfying fractional exclusion statistics. To test directly the nature of exclusion statistics we found that systems under weakly degenerate conditions should be considered. Typical of these systems is that the chemical potential m is in the thermal range umu ,3kBT . In these conditions the noise properties under current satur...

Prestack depth migration of shot profiles by downward continuation is a practical imaging algorithm that is especially cost-effective for sparse-shot wide-azimuth geometries. The interpretation of offset as the displacement between the downward-propagating (shot) wavefield and upward-propagating (receiver) wavefield enables us to extract offset-domain common imagepoint (CIP) gathers during shot...

A large number of shot boundary detection, or equivalently, transition detection techniques have been developed in recent years. The shot boundary detection includes abrupt and gradual shot change detection. Gradual shot change detection is more challenging task than abrupt shot change detection. Thus aim of this paper is mainly to focus on gradual boundary detection. Previous researches relate...

background: ménière’s disease  has been  remained  as a difficult therapeutic  challenge. the  present  study aimed to   determine    the effects of  one-shot low-dosage intratympanic   gentamicin   on  vertigo control, auditory outcomes  and  findings of computerized  dynamic posturography  and   vestibular  evoked  myogenic potentials in patients with unilateral ménière’s disease. methods: in...

conclusions this study shows lower anti-hbs among students who were vaccinated at infancy compared to those vaccinated at older childhood or adolescence. also, subsequent measurement of anti-hbs level at the time of entrance to university is recommended for all previously immunized students. results vaccination coverage rates were 74.1%. about half the participants didn’t show serological evide...
