  Abstract:Action recognition has been standing as an active research topic over the past years. Many efforts have been made and many methods have been proposed. However, there are still some challenges such as illumination condition, viewpoint, camera motion and cluttered background. In order to tackle these challenges, a discriminative representation is proposed by discovering key information of the input data. This task can be addressed by improvements of two major components: parameterized representation and discriminative classifier. The representation is parameterized with hidden variables and can be learned from training data. And the classifier can be trained to recognize actions based on the proposed representation. The contributions of this paper are as follows: (1) a novel probabilistic representation is utilized to capture the relative significant information of low level features; (2) a novel framework is proposed by combining the parameterized representation and discriminative classifier; (3) an alternating strategy is favorable to improve the performance of action recognition by updating the representation and the classifier alternatively. Experimental results on five well-known datasets demonstrate that the proposed method significantly improves the performance in action recognition. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd

  Abstract:Photonic integrated circuits that exploit nonlinear optics in order to generate and process signals all-optically have achieved performance far superior to that possible electronically - particularly with respect to speed. We review the recent achievements based in new CMOS-compatible platforms that are better suited than SOI for nonlinear optics, focusing on radio frequency (RF) and microwave based applications that exploit micro-resonator based frequency combs. We highlight their potential as well as the challenges to achieving practical solutions for many key applications. These material systems have opened up many new capabilities such as on-chip optical frequency comb generation and ultrafast optical pulse generation and measurement. We review recent work on a photonic RF Hilbert transformer for broadband microwave in-phase and quadrature-phase generation based on an integrated frequency optical comb. The comb is generated using a nonlinear microring resonator based on a CMOS compatible, high-index contrast, doped-silica glass platform. The high quality and large frequency spacing of the comb enables filters with up to 20 taps, allowing us to demonstrate a quadrature filter with more than a 5-octave (3 dB) bandwidth and an almost uniform phase response. © 2016 SPIE.
