The proposed approach detects the topic-caption frames, and integrates them with silence clips detection results, as well as shot segmentation results to locate the news story boundaries. The integration of audio-visual features and text information overcomes the weakness of the approach using only image analysis techniques. On test data with 135 400 frames, when the boundaries between news stories are detected, the accuracy rate 85.8% and the recall rate 97.5% are obtained. The experimental results show the approach is valid and robust.展开更多

A multilayer boosted HMM ( MBHMM ) classifier for automatic audio-visual emotion recognition is presented in this paper. A modified Baum-Welch algorithm is proposed for component HMM learn- ing and adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) is used to train ensemble classifiers for different layers (cues). Except for the first layer, the initial weights of training samples in current layer are decided by recognition results of the ensemble classifier in the upper layer. Thus the training procedure using current cue can focus more on the difficult samples according to the previous cue. Our MBHMM clas- sifier is combined by these ensemble classifiers and takes advantage of the complementary informa- tion from multiple cues and modalities. Experimental results on audio-visual emotion data collected in Wizard of Oz scenarios and labeled under two types of emotion category sets demonstrate that our approach is effective and promising.展开更多

The physical capacity of patients with heart failure, assessed using the exercise test and the 6-minute walk test, is the measure of the patient’s overall functional ability to perform physical activities and tolerate exercise loads. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of cardiac rehabilitation on patients’ physical capabilities and to conduct a thorough comparison of data obtained via exercise testing and the 6-minute walk test before and after the rehabilitation programme. Methods: This was a descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study, conducted from 1 February 2021 to 31 June 2022. Included were heart failure patients who had participated in an outpatient cardiovascular rehabilitation programme. The collected data included anamnestic, clinical, paraclinical data, and the 6-minute walk test. Informed consent was obtained. Data analysis, word processing, and charting were performed using Microsoft Word 2016, Excel 2013, and Sphinx version 5.1.0.2. Data analysis was performed using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) version 24.0. Any difference less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: In a Senegalese study, heart failure patients undergoing rehabilitation in a cardiac unit represented 45.59% of all cases, with a prevalence rate of 3.21%. The average participant was 57.97 years old, with those aged 61 to 70 forming the largest group (35.5%). The study noted a male predominance (sex ratio of 2.1) and identified dyslipidaemia (80.6%) and sedentarism (71%), as prevalent cardiovascular risk factors. All participants initially suffered from NYHA stage 2 or 3 dyspnoea, yet 80.65% showed no symptoms following rehabilitation. Significant improvements were recorded in resting heart rate (from 79 to 67 bpm), and the 6-minute walk test distance (from 328 m to 470 m). Enhanced exercise tolerance and walking test outcomes were particularly notable in patients with LVEF ≥ 50%, women, non-obese individuals, those initially walking less than 300 m, achieving more than 3 METs, and non-smokers. Conclusion: The findings underscore the effectiveness of cardiovascular rehabilitation in improving symptoms, physical capability, and overall quality of life for heart failure patients in Senegal.展开更多

MPEG-4 AVOs are extracted and classified into different groups according to their priority values and scalable layers (visual importance). These priority values are mapped to the 1P DiffServ per hop behaviors (PHB). This scheme can selectively discard packets with low importance, in order to avoid the network congestion. Simulation results show that the quality of received video can gracefully adapt to network state, as compared with the ‘best-effort' manner. Also, by allowing the content provider to define prioritization of each audio-visual object, the adaptive transmission of object-based scalable video can be customized based on the content.展开更多

The average participant was 57.97 years old, with those aged 61 to 70 forming the largest group (35.5%). The study noted a male predominance (sex ratio of 2.1) and identified dyslipidaemia (80.6%) and sedentarism (71%), as prevalent cardiovascular risk factors. All participants initially suffered from NYHA stage 2 or 3 dyspnoea, yet 80.65% showed no symptoms following rehabilitation. Significant improvements were recorded in resting heart rate (from 79 to 67 bpm), and the 6-minute walk test distance (from 328 m to 470 m). Enhanced exercise tolerance and walking test outcomes were particularly notable in patients with LVEF ≥ 50%, women, non-obese individuals, those initially walking less than 300 m, achieving more than 3 METs, and non-smokers. Conclusion: The findings underscore the effectiveness of cardiovascular rehabilitation in improving symptoms, physical capability, and overall quality of life for heart failure patients in Senegal.

文摘Digital survival and development is not only an important part of the theory and practice of human rights in the digital society but also the purpose of protecting the digitally disadvantaged.Today,the rights approach to protecting the digitally disadvantaged ignores individual differences,the process of action,the quality of rights,and digital capability development which are of greatest concern to the capabilities approach.Therefore,it is inferior to the latter in terms of both content and effectiveness.From the perspective of the capabilities approach,the digitally disadvantaged manifest a combined state of weakened digital rights and digital disability.The exclusion of individual rights by technological rights,the lack of inherent capabilities due to individual differences,and the weak combination of structural imbalances are the essential logic of the problem of the digitally disadvantaged.Therefore,it is necessary to embed the capabilities approach as a value principle into the legal protection of the digitally disadvantaged and enhance the intrinsic capabilities by cultivating digital literacy within the dimension of rights.Additionally,it is also necessary to develop a comprehensive capability by combining digital power constraints and responsible allocation,diversified collaborative digital capability assessment,promotion and assistance,and national standardized,motivational,and preferential empowerment to ensure that the digitally disadvantaged unleash and develop their capabilities.
文摘The object-based scalable coding in MPEG-4 is investigated, and a prioritized transmission scheme of MPEG-4 audio-visual objects (AVOs) over the DiffServ network with the QoS guarantee is proposed. MPEG-4 AVOs are extracted and classified into different groups according to their priority values and scalable layers (visual importance). These priority values are mapped to the 1P DiffServ per hop behaviors (PHB). This scheme can selectively discard packets with low importance, in order to avoid the network congestion. Simulation results show that the quality of received video can gracefully adapt to network state, as compared with the ‘best-effort' manner. Also, by allowing the content provider to define prioritization of each audio-visual object, the adaptive transmission of object-based scalable video can be customized based on the content.
