The Unwritten Diary of Israel Unger
At the beginning of the Nazi period, 25,000 Jewish people lived in Tarnow, Poland. By the end of the Second World War, nine remained. Like Anne Frank, Israel Unger and his family hid for two years in an attic crawl space above the Dagnan flour mill in Tarnow. Their stove was the chimney that went up through the attic; their windows were cracks in the wall. Survival depended on the food the adults were able to forage outside at night. Against all odds, they emerged alive. Now, decades later, here is Unger’s “unwritten diary.” At the end of the war, following a time as people sans pays, the Unger family immigrated to Canada. After discovering a love of chemistry, Israel Unger had a stell...
Scale Space and Variational Methods in Computer Vision
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Scale Space Methods and Variational Methods in Computer Vision, SSVM 2009, emanated from the joint edition of the 5th International Workshop on Variational, Geometric and Level Set Methods in Computer Vision, VLSM 2009 and the 7th International Conference on Scale Space and PDE Methods in Computer Vision, Scale-Space 2009, held in Voss, Norway in June 2009. The 71 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on segmentation and detection; image enhancement and reconstruction; motion analysis, optical flow, registration and tracking; surfaces and shapes; scale space and feature extraction.
Scale Space and Variational Methods in Computer Vision
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third International Conference on Scale Space Methods and Variational Methods in Computer Vision, SSVM 2011, held in Ein-Gedi, Israel in May/June 2011. The 24 revised full papers presented together with 44 poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 78 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on denoising and enhancement, segmentation, image representation and invariants, shape analysis, and optical flow.
Pattern Recognition
On behalf of the organizing committee, we would like to welcome you to Da- nd stadt and DAGM 2010,the 32 Annual Symposium of the German Association for Pattern Recognition. The technical program covered all aspects of pattern recognition and, to name only a few areas, ranged from 3D reconstruction, to object recognition and medical applications. The result is re?ected in these proceedings, which contain the papers presented at DAGM 2010. Our call for papers resulted in 134 submissions from institutions in 21 countries. Each paper underwent a rigorous reviewing process and was assigned to at least three program committee m- bers for review. The reviewing phase was followed by a discussion pha...
Advances in Visual Computing
It is with greatpleasure that we present the proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Visual Computing (ISVC 2009), which was held in Las Vegas, Nevada. ISVC o?ers a common umbrella for the four main areas of visual c- puting includingvision,graphics,visualization,andvirtualreality.Thegoalisto provide a forum for researchers, scientists, engineers, and practitioners throu- out the world to present their latest research ?ndings, ideas, developments, and applications in the broader area of visual computing. This year, the program consisted of 16 oral sessions, one poster session, 7 special tracks, and 6 keynote presentations. Also, this year ISVC hosted the Third Semantic Robot Vision...
Energy Minimization Methods in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Energy Minimization Methods in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, EMMCVPR 2011, held in St. Petersburg, Russia in July , 2011. The book presents 30 revised full papers selected from a total of 52 submissions. The book is divided in sections on discrete and continuous optimization, segmentation, motion and video, learning and shape analysis.
Identification of Change Patterns for the Generation of Models of Work-as-Done using Eye-tracking
In this PhD a method was developed to identify systematic patterns of change in visual attention allocation (change patterns). The change patterns were then integrated into the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) for the generation of models of work-as-done. The change patterns were validated against known changes in visual attention allocation due to shifts in functions of work-as-done in several eye-tracking studies: three simulator studies, one field study and one experimental study. In total approx. 50 hours of eye-tracking data was analyzed. The results of the method were validated quantitatively and qualitatively. In the quantitative validation, the changes in visual attention allocation due to changes in functions were covered with a mean deviation of approx. 13 seconds averaged over all datasets (2% deviation relative to the recording lengths). In the qualitative validation, the change patterns produced were found to be plausible for the evaluated studies. Finally, it was demonstrated how the change patterns can be integrated into FRAM and potentially contribute to the understanding of emergent effects in industries with high levels of automation.
Energy Minimization Methods in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Energy Minimization Methods in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, EMMCVPR 2009, held in Bonn, Germany in August 2009. The 18 revised full papers, 18 poster papers and 3 keynote lectures presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 75 submissions.

Advances in Visual Computing
The two volume set LNCS 5875 and LNCS 5876 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Visual Computing, ISVC 2009, held in Las Vegas, NV, USA, in November/December 2009. The 97 revised full papers and 63 poster papers presented together with 40 full and 15 poster papers of 7 special tracks were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 320 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on computer graphics; visualization; feature extraction and matching; medical imaging; motion; virtual reality; face processing; reconstruction; detection and tracking; applications; and video analysis and event recognition. The 7 additional special tracks address issues such as object recognition; visual computing for robotics; computational bioimaging; 3D mapping, modeling and surface reconstruction; deformable models: theory and applications; visualization enhanced data analysis for health applications; and optimization for vision, graphics and medical imaging: theory and applications.
Kein Weltuntergang
Wofür kämpfen Helden? Sechzehn Autorinnen und Autoren haben mit ihren Kurzgeschichten versucht, diese Frage zu beantworten. Die Welt geht in dieser Anthologie nicht unter, doch es gibt so viel mehr, worum es sich zu kämpfen lohnt. Manche ergreifen ihr Schwert aus Liebe, werden von Gier zu den Waffen getrieben oder kämpfen gegen die Dämonen in ihrem Inneren.
