This approach addresses two difficulties simultaneously: 1)
the range limitation of mobile robot sensors and 2) the difficulty of detecting buildings in
monocular aerial images. With the suggested method building outlines can be detected
faster than the mobile robot can explore the area by itself, giving the robot an ability to
“see” around corners. At the same time, the approach can compensate for the absence
of elevation data in segmentation of aerial images. Our experiments demonstrate that
ground-level semantic information (wall estimates) allows to focus the segmentation of
the aerial image to find buildings and produce a ground-level semantic map that covers
a larger area than can be built using the onboard sensors.
We propose a technique that allows a person to design a new photograph
with substantially less effort. This paper presents a method that generates a composite image when a user types
in nouns, such as “boat” and “sand.” The artist can optionally design an intended image by specifying other
constraints. Our algorithm formulates the constraints as queries to search an automatically annotated image
database. The desired photograph, not a collage, is then synthesized using graph-cut optimization, optionally
allowing for further user interaction to edit or choose among alternative generated photos. An implementation of
our approach, shown in the associated video, demonstrates our contributions of (1) a method for creating specific
images with minimal human effort, and (2) a combined algorithm for automatically building an image library with
semantic annotations from any photo collection.
Modern, large scale, display systems are
migrating from traditional technologies such as
incandescent, fluorescent and mechanical to
sophisticated products based on LEDs. LED
displays offer power savings and a superior
visual experience in a range of products from
programmable signage to large-scale video
displays and commercial installations.
Modern C++ Design is an important book. Fundamentally, it demonstrates generic
patterns or pattern templates as a powerful new way of creating extensible designs in
C++--a new way to combine templates and patterns that you may never have dreamt was
possible, but is. If your work involves C++ design and coding, you should read this book.
Organized in a practical problem-and-solution format, More Exceptional C++ picks up where the widely acclaimed Exceptional C++ leaves off, providing successful strategies for solving real-world problems in C++. Drawing from years of in-the-trenches experience, Herb Sutter provides tested techniques and practical solutions for programmers designing modern software systems with C++, from small projects to enterprise applications.

This popular tutorial introduction to standard C++ has been completely updated, reorganized, and rewritten to help programmers learn the language faster and use it in a more modern, effective way.Just as C++ has evolved since the last edition, so has the authors approach to teaching it.
Playfair Cipher
1.not even the large number of keys in a monoalphabetic cipher provides security
2.one approach to improving security was to encrypt multiple letters
3.the Playfair Cipher is an example
4.invented by Charles Wheatstone in 1854,but named after his friend Baron Playfair
Playfair Key Matrix
1.a 5X5 matrix of letters based on a keyword
2.fill in letters of keyword (sans duplicates)
3.fill rest of matrix with other letters
Encrypting and Decrypting
-plaintext is encrypted two letters at a time
1. if a pair is a repeated letter, insert filler like X’
2. if both letters fall in the same row, replace each with letter to right (wrapping back to start from end)
3. if both letters fall in the same column, replace each with the letter below it (again wrapping to top from
bottom)
4. otherwise each letter is replaced by the letter in the same row and in the column of the other letter of the pair
With this example-driven book, you get a quick, practical, and thorough introduction to Java s API for XML Web Services (JAX-WS) and the Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS). Java Web Services: Up and Running takes a clear, no-nonsense approach to these technologies by providing you with a mix of architectural overview, complete working code examples, and short yet precise instructions for compiling, deploying, and executing a sample application. You ll not only learn how to write web services from scratch, but also how to integrate existing services into your Java applications. All the source code for the examples is available from the book s companion website.
