ORB: An efficient alternative to SIFT or SURF
Feature matching is at the base of many computer vision problems, such as object recognition or structure from motion. Current methods rely on costly descriptors for detection a...

Amazon's Mechanical Turk
Amazon’s Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is a relatively new website that contains the major elements required to conduct research: an integrated participant compensation system; a larg...
Designing qualitative research
Objectives: This study investigated the relationship between sleep quality during pregnancy and preterm birth. \nMethods: This longitudinal study was conducted between Augus...
Phylogenies and the Comparative Method
Comparative studies of the relationship between two phenotypes, or between a phenotype and an environment, are frequently carried out by invalid statistical methods. Most regres...
Object Detection with Discriminatively Trained Part-Based Models
We describe an object detection system based on mixtures of multiscale deformable part models. Our system is able to represent highly variable object classes and achieves state-...
<i>Ab initio</i> effective core potentials for molecular calculations. Potentials for main group elements Na to Bi
A consistent set of ab initio effective core potentials (ECP) has been generated for the main group elements from Na to Bi using the procedure originally developed by Kahn. The ...
An Introduction To Compressive Sampling
Conventional approaches to sampling signals or images follow Shannon's theorem: the sampling rate must be at least twice the maximum frequency present in the signal (Nyquist rat...
Institutional Ecology, `Translations' and Boundary Objects: Amateurs and Professionals in Berkeley's Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, 1907-39
Scientific work is heterogeneous, requiring many different actors and viewpoints. It also requires cooperation. The two create tension between divergent viewpoints and the need ...
TCS: a computer program to estimate gene genealogies
Phylogenies are extremely useful tools, not only for establishing genealogical relationships among a group of organisms or their parts (e.g. genes), but also for a variety of re...
