AN EXTRACTION OF KEY VARIABLESFOR LONG-TERM TRENDS USING A MODIFIEDCROSS-IMPACT MATRIX

The traditional approach to forecasting lies in the assumption that, byapplying a set of powerful analytic tools, the future could be predictedaccurately enough to choose an appropriate strategic direction for it. Theprocess often involves ...

Computer Vision and Natural Constraints

Computer vision, the automatic construction of scene descriptions from image input data, has just entered its second decade. Approaches have varied widely, especially in the amounts of symbolic, domain-dependent knowledge and inference that...

Computer Vision Meets Educational Robotics

Educational robotics has gained a lot of attention in the past few years in K-12 education. Prior studies have shown enough shreds of evidence and highlight the benefits of educational robotics as being effective in providing impactful lear...

Calibration and Orientation of Cameras in Computer Vision

One of my greatest hates is the edited book with chapters from a number of different authors, some of which have evidently been written in haste against the final deadline, and most of which show marked divergence of content, opinion, notat...
