As part of a survey of the remarkable diversity of Facetotecta (“y-larvae”) at an Okinawan (Japan) hotspot locality, a very small and relatively abundant species of this group, Hansenocaris lenticula sp. nov. (former...

Here we report the first example of associated short-faced bear fossils from South America. The specimens represent three individuals referable to the Ensenadan (early to middle Pleistocene) species Arctotherium angustid...

In this paper, an efficient algorithm for detecting frontalview faces in color images is proposed. The proposed algorithm has a special task; it detects faces in the presence of skin-tone regions such as human body, clot...

There s some very important meaning in the study of realtime face recognition and tracking system for the video monitoring and artifical vision. The current method is still very susceptible to the illumination condition,...

The present study includes a review of the geographic and stratigraphic distribution of short-faced bears (Ursidae, Tremarctinae) in South America. In addition, the authors discuss biogeographic hypotheses regarding the ...

We have developed a near-real-time computer system that can locate and track a subject's head, and then recognize the person by comparing characteristics of the face to those of known individuals. The computational appro...

We develop a face recognition algorithm which is insensitive to large variation in lighting direction and facial expression. Taking a pattern classification approach, we consider each pixel in an image as a coordinate in...

We present here a deciduous tooth recovered from the Blancan (Pliocene) Río Tomayate locality (Republic of El Salvador) and assign it to cf. Arctotherium (South American short-faced bears) based on its morphology and si...

This paper presents a robust eye detection algorithm for gray intensity images. The idea of our method is to combine the respective advantages of two existing techniques, feature based method and template based method, a...

Fil: Arao Galhardi, Renato de Almeida. Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales; México. El presente trabajo presenta las discusiones y resultados de reflexionar sobre la composición de una identidad étnica en el...

We consider the problem of automatically recognizing human faces from frontal views with varying expression and illumination, as well as occlusion and disguise. We cast the recognition problem as one of classifying among...

This study examines the relationship between use of Facebook, a popular online social network site, and the formation and maintenance of social capital. In addition to assessing bonding and bridging social capital, we ex...

Desde hace una década y media, las formas de hacer archivo y de intervención autoral en formatos web han invadido distintas esferas de acción de los sujetos, y han propiciado conductas de construcción identitaria y c...

The adaptation of French to sociocultural and linguistic contexts is no secret. This tendency to want to vernacularize French is found everywhere in French-speaking countries in Africa, as is the case in Cameroon, which ...

This article contains a case study over the 2012 presidential campaign in France. The author elucidates the political context, positioning techniques of the main candidates – Nicolas Sarkozy and Francois Hollande, basi...

ABSTRACT Objective Adjacent segment retrolisthesis is a common yet frequently overlooked complication after lumbar fusion, which may lead to reoperation. However, its risk factors, particularly those related to preoperat...

Dentists are one of the professions most at risk of infection transmission because dental care potentially produces many infectious aerosols for bacterial transmission. Using personal protective equipment and aerosol suc...

This study assesses effective training methods that support in-person, post-graduate, exam invigilators to build awareness of institutional policies as well as heighten their comfort and confidence with invigilating in t...

Deep learning offers a novel opportunity to achieve both high-quality and high-speed computer-generated holography (CGH). Current data-driven deep learning algorithms face the challenge that the labeled training datasets...

Abstract Background Globally transgender women (TW) are at heightened vulnerability for HIV infection. In Lima Peru, sharp increases in HIV prevalence are seen among TW ages 25 years and older highlighting the need for ...

BackgroundMedical vocational college freshmen face severe challenges to their psychological resilience from various stressful events upon their enrollment. This qualitative study aimed to explore the authentic experience...

HABERMAS, em um texto recente sobre os acontecimentos de 2001, colocou novamente em questão as relações entre fé e saber na modernidade. A visão moderna que a religião deve ser excluída da esfera pública encontra...
