chemical imaging Conference


This week in San Francisco is conducting the conference " IS & T / SPIE Electronic Imaging ." The same covers many topics related to the acquisition electronics and image processing.

We had the opportunity to attend some talks on Monday and they share the following notes.

Several companies are investigating how to improve images by choosing the fixing of "flight time" or "Time of Flight" TOF imaging. This method is to illuminate a scene with a modulated light source, which is usually performed with infrared LEDs. The variation in the time of the light entering the camera on a given pixel is compared with modulation used in the light emitter. The phase difference between them is proportional to the time it took the light to reach the camera after bouncing the object. In this way you get a picture in which the intensity of each pixel indicates the distance from this to the camera. The method allows three-dimensional images using a single camera. Remain to be solved several problems, for example due to multiple bounces of light, or errors due to differences in reflectivity of different materials. New algorithms can solve some of these issues, such as operating at two different frequencies bounce effects can be compensated. Another

use video card or GPU (Graphics Processing Units), data processing in general. A new acronym is found GPGPU (General-purpose computing on graphics processing units). Some new video cards have hundreds of processors or "cores" that under certain conditions can greatly facilitate the implementation of parallel computations. While the idea origial of this hardware to accelerate image processing, especially in the context of video games, it is clear that these applications go far beyond this, and as software and hardware advances will increasingly be used but in certain industrial and scientific applications, especially on issues that can be divided easily into a large number of simple calculations (easily parallelizable).

Games Where Your Avatar Can Get Pregnant

create high-strength metallic glass



We learned through slashdot researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the California Institute of Technology developed a new material which has unique mechanical properties. The same is an alloy of palladium. The amorphous material is glass but has a mechanical strength to fracture extremely high.

What Song Should My Basketball Team Run Out To

Computer human face competition




We learned through an article in WIRED that a new computer built by IBM faced two champions of the game show Jeopardy .

In the famous television program, participants must answer questions in several categories of general education. The computer does not have access to the internet, but if you have a large database. The challenge is not in memory, the computer has a large quantity, but rather to interpret the questions correctly.

In a demonstration held on January 13, the computer will beat the champions of the game. It remains to be seen as he will during the actual tournament, which Lleca out in February 2011.

This type of demonstration is similar to those made earlier by IBM in which special computer Deep Blue faced human chess champions.

Wrestling Ring Construction

the pantheon of scientists

I present the most recent list of scientists with the greatest impact in our time. Are ranked according to members of the pantheon have appeared in books, allowing scientists to compare different research fields such as mathematics, physics, and social sciences. The two creators of list are Adrian Veres and John Bohannon. Two pioneers in a new research field called culturomics (culturómica), which is the quantitative exploration of digital data records. The method used in this field is the analysis of millions of books and search for words or phrases in these books. Obviously nobody has time to read both, so take advantage of a relatively new technology: Google, Google Books particular . This service now has 15 million books, of which 4% were used for the study. These digitized books is easy to look up words and names.
first thing they did Veres and Bohannon was to compile a comprehensive list of scientists. Wikipedia served as a database where they got, using a special algorithm, the names. Then counted the number of occurrences of each of the names of scientists in the books Google Books. A greater number of citations per year means a name a place higher on the list.
Here it is:

Bertrand Russell 1872
name birth death miliDarwin
1970 1500
Charles Darwin 1809 1882 1000
Albert Einstein 1879 1955 878
Lewis Carroll 1832 1898 479
Claude Bernard 1813 1878 429
Oliver Lodge 1851 1940 394
Julian Huxley 1887 1975 350
Karl Pearson 1857 1936 346
Niels Bohr 1885 1962 289
Alexander Graham Bell 1847 1922 274
Max Planck 1858 1947 256
Francis Galton 1822 1911 255
Robert Oppenheimer 1904 1967 252
Louis Pasteur 1822 1895 237
Chaim Weizmann 1874 1952 236
Alfred North Whitehead 1861 1947 229
Marie Curie 1867 1934 189
Robert Koch 1843 1910 185
Isaac Asimov 1920 1992 183
James Jeans 1877 1946 182
Ray Lankester 1847 1929 175
Stephen Jay Gould 1941 2002 169
Norbert Wiener 1894 1964 163
Rachel Carson 1907 1964 152
Carl Sagan 1934 1996 152

Why Charles Darwin has exactly 1000 miliDarwin (mD), or 1 Darwin, and what this unit? Darwin is one of the most famous scientists, whose work has had a tremendous impact on our understanding of the world. To honor this, and Bohannon Veres named the unit of measure with his name. This measure is defined as the average annual frequency that the name "Charles Darwin" in books written in English since 1839, the year that Darwin turned 30.
In fact we can all use Google Books for research using a service called Ngram . You can see the use of words over time or compare several terms. For example, Batman vs. Superman:

seems that Superman has more fans than Batman ...

Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5 Uninstall

Freedom (Freedom analog)

In my classes I have discussed many times if the XXI Century executives are not receiving too much information that distracts from their main task: to think (and plan and execute strategies).

Too many e-mails a copy, SMS, too many metrics (Weekly, monthly, quarterly, .. balance score cards, ..), too much time spent on tasks that are not important and in the end it is important and urgent and re-classify between: I do, I delegate it to the trash, to the agenda. Before

read my last book of Seth Godin (Linchpin, of which I have spoken) thought this was due to our lack of efficiency and effectiveness of sophisticated tools such as "One Page Plan," Magic Matrices and strategy maps Kaplan and this in my classes I teach to use them.

Now I know that the issue is much more complex: although we know make a strategic plan on one sheet and is much easier to follow the evolution of our business (such as airline pilot or surgeon, who have at your eyes the vital parameters of their work), we spent hours reading emails that are not urgent in our iPhone / Blackberry / PC or tweeting irrelevant information, "distracting" what to do.

According to Seth, is our "lizard brain" for fear that doing what we do, to take risks, make mistakes, pushes us the easy, comfortable, which does not involve making decisions.

be to avoid this that has created software "Freedom", an application that Mackeros can buy for $ 10 and allows us to decide how long we want to be disconnected from the Internet, up to 8 hours. That is, during the set time, our MAC can not connect to the network and to do it or wait for the time that we have "given" or have to restart your Mac

Here you have the link to the website of Freedom and I beg you read what writers and other famous saying , which can finally finish a chapter or work properly: http://macfreedom.com/

What do you think?

Are we so hooked to the Internet we need a software Methadone, a software "patch" that prevents us from enjoying the service for a few hours?

Can You Get Syphilis On Back Of Tongue

electronic books mp3 players



The release of devices like the Kindle, iPad and a host of readers of books, have renewed interest in the books.
Consumer prices of these readers in general are above $ 100.

You can read digital books on devices more economical?

The answer is yes, assuming you have no problem in sacrificing image quality, you can actually read text on tiny screens such as those in MP3 players or digital cameras.
In fact, some newer MP3 players already have software to read eBooks.

Without having these players, we decided to do an experiment to see if you can download a book in a media player that is not originally designed to read e-books.

The following are the steps taken and results achieved.

A first step was to obtain fonts (fonts) small, so you can put much text on a tiny screen. In this experiment we use a free source called 04b03.

A second step was to convert text to images, (The player in question, insignia ns-4v17b, has the ability to play JPG on a small screen of 220 x 176 pixels).

In theory this should be easy, and think that maybe there is software that makes it automatically. We did not find anything. A program that seemed appropriate for this task is ImageMagick, which can convert text to images, but in practice this software is not easy to convert long texts on small images. (It may be possible if a pre-formatted text using some script)

Finding no suitable software, we decided to write a visual basic program that performs the following tasks:

1. Open a text file (downloaded from Project Gutenberg ) and load the text line by line.
2. Make the "word wrap" with a certain number of columns to ensure that the text in the image.
3. Print the text in parts in a box of images (PictureBox) using the font tiny.
4. Save each image in a separate BMP file of 220 x 176 pixels.

then proceeded to upload the images to the mp3 player (This is done using the utility that comes with the CD player)

After several attempts and calibrations we carry an entire book on mp3 player. The images are saved in JPG format, which is somewhat inefficient but no problem because the player has 4GB of memory.

The end result?

Very satisfying!
The generated pages are quite readable (see photo above), but could use a magnifying glass to avoid eyestrain.

Another experiment was to reformat the images to be seen in a camera. This requires generate JPG format to comply with DCF. A free program that does this is Image Creator, which was developed for use with Panasonic digital projectors. Instructables In explaining the steps .
The method works, but the program does not give too many chances to reduce the resolution of the images, which end up being quite large in relation to the resolution of the display of the camera.

In conclusion, the method is feasible and economical that many devices have a screen (cameras, MP3 players, digital photo viewers, etc.) can be used to read e-books. Obviously the most efficient is that the devices run software that directly display TXT files, which is already happening, for example in the folowing devices: Jwin


JXMP262 model-MP620 COBY model 4GRED
Archos 501516
model
All these are very economical and cost between 20-30 dollars on Amazon
