Visual saliency by keypoints distribution analysis

2011

In this paper we introduce a new method for Visual Saliency detection. The goal of our method is to emphasize regions that show rare visual aspects in comparison with those showing frequent ones. We propose a bottom up approach that performs a new technique based on low level image features (texture) analysis. More precisely, we use SIFT Density Maps (SDM), to study the distribution of keypoints into the image with different scales of observation, and its relationship with real fixation points. The hypothesis is that the image regions that show a larger distance from the mode (most frequent value) of the keypoints distribution over all the image are the same that better capture our visual a…

Un football des champs et un football des villes : analyse géographique du service football dans un cadre régional

2006

National audience; Le football représente une des formes d'activités de loisir les mieux représentées en France. Au regard de la population concernée par la discipline, il est légitime de la qualifier de service. Cet article propose une lecture géographique de l'offre du service football (les clubs) et de la demande exprimée par les pratiquants. La spatialisation des composants de ce service sportif dans un cadre régional (la Franche-Comté) a pour objectif d'apporter des éléments de connaissance permettant d'ajuster au mieux l'offre des clubs à la demande sociale.

Multi-Scale Modelling of Segmentation : Effect of Music Training and Experimental Task

2016

While listening to music, people, often unwittingly, break down musical pieces into constituent chunks such as verses and choruses. Music segmentation studies have suggested that some consensus regarding boundary perception exists, despite individual differences. However, neither the effects of experimental task (i.e. realtime vs annotated segmentation), nor of musicianship on boundary perception are clear. Our study assesses musicianship effects and differences between segmentation tasks. We conducted a real-time task experiment to collect segmentations by musicians and non-musicians from 9 musical pieces; in a second experiment on non-realtime segmentation, musicians indicated boundaries …

Zrównoważona konsumpcja: istota - formy - nabywcy

2016

Multidimensional in esse the act of consumption, if the buyer takes into account the principles of sustainable development, become a challenge - also social and political. The patterns of strong and weak sustainable consumption fulfill in different degree the ethical warrant of intergenerational justice, then their effectiveness depends on the scalę of lifestyles change. Previous studies of sustainable consumption forms and consumers segments reveal polarization of purchasing decisions: proecologically or socially motivated, and an „intention-behavior gap”, hindering the prediction of market behavior. This problem can be reduced by the segmentation based on the single act of purchase analys…

Analysis of microtomographic images of porous heterogeneous materials

2015

In this work, we study the phases of image processing chain of microtomographic imag- ing in order to obtain reliable results while optimizing the time spent on denoising and segmentation. We consider that the decisions made at the early phases of the processing chain are most important and the selection made there essentially determine the overall quality of imaging process. We also compare here various denoising method qualita- tively, however, we think that the pure noise removal ability is not the only requirement for noise removal in microtomographic images. By proper denoising we can affect selec- tion of segmentation methods and, thus, also the quality of the analysis. Additionally, …

Dualismo tra occupati: evidenze empiriche per il caso Italiano

2005

Questo articolo testa l'esistenza di dualismo dal punto di vista salariale tra lavoratori, applicando un modello di mistura di regressioni. I risultati mostrano differenze di rendimento elevate tra lavoratori a settori "primari" e "secondari".
