Generic Object Recognition Using Form & Function

By: Louise Stark,Kevin Bowyer

This monograph provides a detailed record of the ?GRUFF? research project. The goal of the GRUFF project is to develop techniques for robotic vision systems to recognize objects by reasoning about their intended function rather than matching to a pre-defined database of 2-D object appearances or 3-D object shapes. The contributions of this work are: a demonstration of the feasibility of the ?form and function? approach to reasoning about 3-D shapes; a demonstration of the concept of using a small number of knowledge primitives as component building blocks in creating a function-based definition of an object category; and an indexing mechanism to make processing for recognition more efficient without any substantial decrease in correctness of classification. Results are given for the analysis of over 500 3-D shape descriptions created with a solid modeling tool and over 200 shape descriptions extracted from real laser range finder images.

Dust of the Zulu

Ngoma Aesthetics after Apartheid

By: Louise Meintjes

In Dust of the Zulu Louise Meintjes traces the political and aesthetic significance of ngoma, a competitive form of dance and music that emerged out of the legacies of colonialism and apartheid in South Africa. Contextualizing ngoma within South Africa's history of violence, migrant labor, the HIV epidemic, and the world music market, Meintjes follows a community ngoma team and its professional subgroup during the twenty years after apartheid's end. She intricately ties aesthetics to politics, embodiment to the voice, and masculine anger to eloquence and virtuosity, relating the visceral experience of ngoma performances as they embody the expanse of South African history. Meintjes also shows how ngoma helps build community, cultivate responsible manhood, and provide its participants with a means to reconcile South Africa's past with its postapartheid future. Dust of the Zulu includes over one hundred photographs of ngoma performances, the majority taken by award-winning photojournalist TJ Lemon.

Understanding Nature

Understanding Nature

Ecology for a New Generation

By: Louise M. Weber

Understanding Nature is a new kind of ecology textbook: a straightforward resource that teaches natural history and ecological content, and a way to instruct students that will nurture both Earth and self. While meeting the textbook guidelines set forth by the Ecological Society of America, Understanding Nature has a unique ecotherapy theme, using a historical framework to teach ecological theory to undergraduates. This textbook presents all the core information without being unnecessarily wordy or lengthy, using simple, relatable language and discussing ecology in ways that any student can apply in real life. Uniquely, it is also a manual on how to improve one’s relationship with the Earth. This is accomplished through coverage of natural history, ecology, and applications, together with suggested field activities that start each chapter and thinking questions that end each chapter. The book includes traditional ecological knowledge as well as the history of scientific ecological knowledge. Understanding Nature teaches theory and applications that will heal the Earth. It also teaches long-term sustainability practices for one’s psyche. Professor Louise Weber is both an ecologist and a certified ecopsychologist, challenging ecology instructors to rethink what and how they teach about nature. Her book bridges the gap between students taking ecology to become ecologists and those taking ecology as a requirement, who will use the knowledge to become informed citizens.

Have Starship, Will Travel

By: Ramona Louise Wheeler

The Final Frontier changes at the flickering rate of tomorrow's headlines, and the speed of light is much too slow for interstellar civilisation. Starmen and their intraspace ships link a thousand races on ten thousand worlds, so you'd think a starman would be treated with a little respect, but some things will never change. Ray -- Captain Ray Harris, master starpilot, loves to travel but hates to land anywhere. Ray especially hates planets, and starships don't earn money on the ground — but that's where the freight is, like it or not. Rokey -- Ray's copilot and alien partner, Rokey, is not a career starman, but a 250-year-old scholar, and he does miss one planet dear to his heart — his distant homeworld of Wozur. Sometimes Rokey still yearns for the family and the life he knew there, when he lived in the spotlight at the pinnacle of interstellar civilisation — until he remembers why he made the painful decision to exile himself. Exiled to the life of a starship trucker onboard the Yankee Shadow, on the run with a brilliant, dedicated young starman who loves to fly — but hates planets. Whether rescuing women from exploding vehicles or rescuing entire alien races from extinction in their ongoing quest to deliver the goods, Ray and Rokey always end up earning their pay — and their respect — the hard way."--Back cover.

Ismael and His Sisters

Ismael and His Sisters

By: Louise Stern

Siblings Ismael, Rosie and Cristina are deaf, and so are many in their Maya village. The deaf and hearing alike communicate in sign language, forming a tightly-knit community with an unsophisticated, simple lifestyle. But when Ismael gets into a fight at the local fiesta and flees the village, leaving Rosie and Cristina to fend for themselves, the daily rhythms of village life are disrupted, and all that they trust in comes under threat. Ismael and His Sisters is a remarkable debut novel from the acclaimed author of Chattering. It conjures up a world set apart, made visceral through its concentrated language, where sign language bridges exterior and interior worlds and gives a physical shape to the way we experience the world. It explores the interplay between the powerful forces within us and the dark elemental forces beyond our control, exposing the 'bottomless, hostile ocean' in which we all flounder. This is an extraordinary novel about the power of familial bonds, the barriers we build out of language, the dark elemental forces that threaten to overwhelm us, and above all, what it is like to be human.
