Driving an automobile taxes the driver in almost all of his sensory systems and uses his deduction power to the fullest. The mental state of the driver is vital to safe and correct driving. This paper focuses on identifying the emotional state of the driver based on his interactions with the automobile while driving and inferring when the driver is in an unpleasant state of mind. The driver's actions...
Computer simulation of tree development can provide important insight into real world tree behavior. Numerous models have been developed ranging from simple equations to complicated 3D geometrical models that allow for simulation of acquisition and allocation of carbohydrates. We introduce IMapple (Interactively Modeled Apple), a functional structural apple tree model that builds on the source-sink...
Plant growth models able to simulate phenotypic plasticity are increasingly required because (i) they should enable better predictions of the observed variations in crop morphology and production, and (ii) their parameters are expected to have a more robust genetic basis compared to conventional crop models, with possible implications for selection of quantitative traits such as interplant competition...
This article gives a brand new way to analyze circuit. Traditionally, people use equations to analyze electric circuit. Solving equation group cannot show the inner relationship of the circuit easily. This article tries to analyze circuit with diagram, which is more intuitive and more efficient. It's so efficient that sometime there is nearly no need to calculate any equations any more.
In the early years of college, students have the need to learn how to program in any programming language. It is important to see the differences between programming languages and their rules. We are proposing an interactive and self-study system for students to acquire the knowledge they need, from data structures to algorithms using multiple programming languages. The system gives the students some...

This article introduces .NET Gadgeteer platform under .NET Micro Framework Technology from the point of view of control application implementation in C# language. Gadgeteer Technology connects hardware components and software application inside the components. Gadgeteer is built on technologies .NET Micro Framework and is connected with the technology of various electronic devices. Article is dealing...
In Mixed-Realty (MR) space, the visual appearance (shape, texture, etc.) of a real object can be changed by superimposing a virtual object on it. Therefore, by creating systematic differences between visual and haptic perceptions using MR technology, we can analyze their influence on temperature perception. In our research group, we defined the changes in the visual information of a real object in...
No-reference objective stereo video quality assessment plays an important role in stereo video content production, especially to the sense of 2D-to-3D video conversion. The main problem needed to consider when designing an objective quality assessment model is to make the assessment result close to human perception. In this paper, a no-reference objective stereo video quality assessment method is...
It is vital for the transportation industry, which performs most of their work by automobiles, to reduce its number of traffic accidents. Many local governments in Japan have made potential risk maps of traffic accident spots. However, making such maps in wide areas and with the time information had been difficult because most of them are made based on an investigation. Utilizing long-term driving...
Most LED visual stimulators used in steady state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) brain-computer interface (BCI) use single LED sources to elicit SSVEP responses. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that different orientations would have different responses in different participants and aimed to develop a portable LED based stimulus design which consists of a small number of RGB LEDs arranged in...
In recent years, short-term single-object tracking has emerged has a popular research topic, as it constitutes the core of more general tracking systems. Many such tracking methods are based on matching a part of the image with a template that is learnt online and represented by, for example, a correlation filter or a distribution field. In order for such a tracker to be able to not only find the...
Due to the progressing growth of temporal data, data analysis and exploration become more and more difficult task; particularly in the medical domain. For this reason, it seems important to use Decision Support System (DSS) based on the decisional tool Knowledge Discovery in Data (KDD) and the visualization techniques for assisting user to get and understand information. Our research is based on the...
As for the insulation diagnosis of the electric power apparatus and the measurement of electromagnetic interference (EMI), a position location technique of the electromagnetic(EM) wave radiation source is required. Although there are many researches on the position location technique of the EM wave radiation source, it still remains the difficulties to readily understanding the result, i.e., the position...
A bibliographic database houses vital information pertinent to the research community. By extracting implicit hidden information in such data collections, social networks can be used to represent the various data inter-relationships.In this paper, we propose a new method for the discovery and visualization of research communities from bibliography information. We utilize the hierarchical overlapping...
