In this work, we address the problem of spatio-temporal action detection in temporally untrimmed videos. It is an important and challenging task as finding accurate human actions in both temporal and spatial space is important for analyzing large-scale video data. To tackle this problem, we propose a cascade proposal and location anticipation (CPLA) model for frame-level action detection. There...

In this paper, we theoretically analyze and demonstrate that spectral efficiency of a conventional direct detection based optical OFDM system (DDO-OFDM) can be improved significantly using frequency interleaving of adjacent DDO-OFDM channels where OFDM signal band of one channel occupies the spectral gap of other channel and vice versa. We show that, at optimum operating condition, the proposed...

Although high rates of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms have been observed among internationally adopted children, research on these symptoms in Polish adoptees is lacking. Therefore, we examined ADHD symptoms in Polish adoptees and their relationship to pre-adoptive risk factors, that is, time in institutional care, early deprivation, and prenatal alcohol exposure. We f...

In this article we consider the possible sets of distances in Polish metric spaces. By a Polish metric space we mean a pair (X, d), where X is a Polish space (a separable, completely-metrizable space) and d is a complete, compatible metric for X. We will consider two aspects. First, we will characterize which sets of reals can be the set of distances in a Polish metric space. We will also obtai...

We introduce a notion of Polish structure and, in doing so, provide a setting which allows the application of ideas and techniques from model theory, descriptive set theory, topology and the theory of profnite groups. We define a topological notion of independence in Polish structures and prove that it has some nice properties. Using this notion, we prove counterparts of some basic results from...

Three groups of data entry female visual display terminal (VDT) workers from Norway (n = 30), Poland (n = 33) and the USA (n = 29) were compared. Before intervention, the Norwegian group reported more neck pain compared with the Polish group. The Polish group reported less shoulder pain than both the U.S. and the Norwegian groups. The clinical examination documented fewer symptoms and signs of ...

AIM The aim of the study was to assess the self-reported oral health behaviour of Scandinavian and Polish medical students studying in Poland. METHODS Three hundred and fifty subjects took part in the questionnaire survey. They were the 4th to 6th year Scandinavian and Polish medical students attending the same medical school. Test-retest reliability demonstrated an accepted level of kappa > ...

In this article we propose an extension to the variation ngram based method of detecting annotation errors. We also show an approach to nding anomalies in the morphosyntactic annotation layer by using association rule discovery. As no research has previously been done in the eld of morphosyntactic annotation error correction for Polish, we provide novel results based on experiments on the large...

The aim of the present contribution was to examine the factors influencing the prosodic processing in a language with predictable word stress. For Polish, a language with fixed penultimate stress but several well-defined exceptions, difficulties in the processing and representation of prosodic information have been reported (e.g., Peperkamp and Dupoux, 2002). The present study utilized event-re...
