In this paper, we propose a distributed and parallel schema to implement the standard version of active appearance model segmentation approach proposed by Cootes. In the scheme distributed, we project to integrate the parallelism to implement the model operations. The parallel schema proposed is based on the data parallelism. The majority of operations of the model lend themselves well to the p...

We present a novel technique for processing image similarity search by using an approach that takes inspiration from text retrieval techniques. In our approach images are indexed by using visual terms taken from a visual lexicon obtained clustering regions of images in the dataset. A weighting and matching schema is defined that allow effective image retrieval to be performed by using inverted ...

This article attempts to establish an urban media storytelling model based on Greimas’ narrative model. Greimas’ narrative model is distinguished into Narrative Schema model and Actantial model. Of course, other contents that reproduced through urban media can also establish storytelling strategies using these. Moreover, it can also be utilized in establishing a storytelling that applies to the...

In this paper we describe the linguistic analysis of the rhetorical figure Antimetabole. We extend our analysis to cognitive processes, centering on Image Schemata as a structure of understanding. Representing elements in symmetry as force vectors we define a graphic representation that shows the balancing forces in multi-dimensions based on the Image Schema BALANCE. We also describe an ontolog...

Schema-consistent material that is aligned with an individual's knowledge and experience is typically more memorable than abstract material. This effect is often more extreme in older adults and schema use can alleviate age deficits in memory. In three experiments, young and older adults completed memory tasks where the availability of schematic information was manipulated. Specifying nonobviou...

introduction: although many researches showed that there are several psychiatric comorbidities in people suffering from migraine headache, few studies investigated the relationship between deep psychopathological structures and headache variables. the purpose of the present study was to elucidate the relationship between early maladaptive schemas and three dimensions of headache impact, pain in...

Image-based rendering (IBR) systems create photorealistic views of complex 3D environments by resampling large collections of images captured in the environment. The quality of the resampled images increases significantly with image capture density. Thus, a significant challenge in interactive IBR systems is to provide both fast image access along arbitrary viewpoint paths and efficient storage...

Previous research suggests an angry God image is a narrative schema predicting support for more punitive forms of criminal justice. However, this has not explored the possibility that racialization may impact one's image. We perform logistic regression on Wave V Baylor Religion Survey to examine correlation between and belief police shoot Blacks often because are violent than Whites (a context-...
