(2019-01-02)Object Detection is widely used in many applications such as face detection, detecting vehicles and pedestrians on streets, and autonomous vehicles. Object detection not only includes recognizing and classifying objects ...
-
(2009-12-17)Object recognition was studied by combining a continuous presentation paradigm and event related potentials (ERPs). Using the Random Image Structure Evolution program (RISE), the phase spectrum of object images was ...
-
(2010-06-14)The proliferation of wireless communication has driven up the demand for electromagnetic and circuit co-simulations. Electromagnetic field solvers such as CST Microwave Studio and Flomerics Microstripes have proprietary ...
-
(2017-06-30)Nonstandard cosmological models of two broad classes are examined: those in which there are more than four spacetime dimensions, and those in which there is a variable cosmological “constant” Λ. We test claims that a number ...
-
(2014-12-03)There are many observational methods for studying debris disks because of constraints imposed on observing their predominately infrared wavelength emission close to the host star. Two methods which are discussed here are ...
-
(2016-07-27)The search to directly image and characterize exoplanets that are initially hidden below the stellar and instrumental noise relies on the use of both extreme adaptive optics (AO) and a subsequent point spread function (PSF) ...
-
(2011-08-18)We consider the sensitivity of high luminosity neutrino experiments to light stable states, as arise in scenarios of MeV-scale dark matter. To ensure the correct thermal relic abundance, such states must annihilate to the ...
-
(2016-09-09)An issue of concern for maritime safety when operating a small to medium-sized sailboat is that the presence of hazards in the navigational route in the form of floating logs can lead to a severe collision if undetected. ...
-
Occupational therapy client-centred practice: a deeper sense of collaboration in client-centredness. (2010-11-16)This study addressed two questions: (a) how do the various discourses that are at work in everyday practice of occupational therapists inhibit or enhance a collaborative therapist-client therapeutic relationship and (b) ...
-
(2010-05-03)The purpose of this research is to gain understanding of the occurrence and origin of streamlined forms in central British Columbia. More than 50,000 landforms, primarily drumlins and crag-and-tail ridges, were digitally ...
-
(2015-08-14)This thesis is an application of the theory and method of the comparative world-systems approach to West Polynesia. This study examines the interactions between the archipelagos of Tonga, Fiji, and Samoa during the period ...
-
(2020-04-27)Deep-ocean pressure measurements are a necessary component for ocean characterization and oceanographic monitoring. Some principle applications such as tsunami detection and ocean floor subsidence are reliant on deep-ocean ...
-
(2016-07-12)Resolute Bay, a remote Arctic bay opening into Parry Channel, in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, hosts diverse populations of marine mammals and fish at various times each year. These animals migrate through the bay ...
-
(2018-09-28)This dissertation examines dog and idiot tropes—and, specifically, the conflation thereof—in William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury (1929), John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men (1937), and Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian, ...
-
(2012-07-20)During the latter half of the 11th century through to the end of the 13th century, Europe was experiencing what is considered by some historians as “the” medieval renaissance, otherwise referred to as the European Renaissance ...
-
(2018-11-22)The attribution of recent global warming to anthropogenic emissions is now well established. However, the relation of recent changes in other properties of the climate system to human activities is not as clearly understood. ...
-
(2017-11-27)The Social Cognitive Screening Battery (SCSB; Ross & Fabiano, 1985; Ross & Ross, 1995) and three statistical control measures (estimates of educational attainment, intelligence and depression) were assessed for their ability ...
-
(2013-07-24)The past decade has witnessed the fast development of peer-assisted video ondemand (PA-VoD) systems, which have attracted millions of online users. The efforts on improving the quality of video programs have never ceased ...
-
(2009-04-29)This report describes the evolution of a prototype portable amenity kiosk to be used by female outdoor sex workers. Following recommendations by Benoit and Millar (2001 pg. 96), I have worked collaboratively with Prostitutes ...
