Ego-Motion Recovery and Robust Tilt Estimation for Planar Motion Using Several Homographies

In this paper we suggest an improvement to a recent algorithm for estimating the pose and ego-motion of a camera which is constrained to planar motion at a constant height above the floor, with a constant tilt. Such motion is common in robotics applications where a camera is mounted onto a mobile platform and directed towards the floor. Due to the planar nature of the scene, images taken with such

Conceptual Scoring of Lexical Organization in Bilingual Children With Language Impairment

The aim was to evaluate conceptual scoring of lexical organization in bilingual children with language impairment (BLI) and to compare BLI performance with monolingual children with language impairment (MLI). Word associations were assessed in 15 BLI and 9 MLI children. BLI were assessed in Arabic and Swedish, MLI in Swedish only. A number of syntagmatic (semantic link, different word class) and p

Retailising Space, Architecture, Retail and the Territorialisation of Public Space

In recent decades we have witnessed a proliferation of new kinds of retail space. Retail space has cropped up just about everywhere in the urban landscape, at libraries, workplaces, churches and museums. In short, retail is becoming a more and more manifest part of the public domain. The traditional spaces of retail such as city centres and outlying shopping malls are either increasing in size or

Passive houses in Sweden - Experiences from design and construction

The sector of residential buildings and service organizations uses 36% of the total energy in Sweden. In June 2006, it was decided by the Swedish parliament that the energy use in residential buildings and premises should decrease by 20% per heated unit area before 2020. To reach this goal, more energy efficient buildings must be produced as well as energy efficient improvements must be performed

Mammalian Molecular Systematics with Emphasis on the Insectivore Order Lipotyphla

Insectivore classification has been one of the most controversial problems in mammalian systematics. Evolutionary relationships among the six extant families, Talpidae (moles), Soricidae (shrews), Erinaceidae (hedgehogs), Tenrecidae (tenrecs), Chryosochloridae (golden moles), and Solenodontidae (solenodons), have remained uncertain based on morphological data. Animals classified within the order L

Development of a Novel Method for Evaluation of Interfacial Tension between Polymer Melts

A novel method for the evaluation of interfacial tension of high viscosity polymer melts is described. The method involves the tracking of the shape evolution of a highly deformed droplet of one material imbedded in a second one. This makes it possible to determine the interfacial tension over a relatively short time period. The imbedded material is initially either a fiber or a disk. The techniqu
