A review of feature extraction methods in vibration-based condition monitoring and its application for degradation trend estimation of low-speed slew bearing by Caesarendra, Wahyu, Tjahjowidodo, Tegoeh

“…The aim of the study is to find the proper features that represent the degradation condition of slew bearing rotating at very low speed (≈ 1 r/min) with naturally defect. The literature study of existing research, related to feature extraction methods or algorithms in a wide range of applications such as vibration analysis, time series analysis and bio-medical signal processing, is discussed. …”

Scalable near identical image and shot detection by Chum, O, Philbin, J, Isard, M, Zisserman, A

“…The second approach uses local feature descriptors (SIFT) and for retrieval exploits techniques used in the information retrieval community to compute approximate set intersections between documents using a min-Hash algorithm. The requirements for near-duplicate images vary according to the application, and we address two types of near duplicate definition: (i) being perceptually identical (e.g. up to noise, discretization effects, small photometric distortions etc); and (ii) being images of the same 3D scene (so allowing for viewpoint changes and partial occlusion). …”

《虬髯客传》的古今诠释 : 以《虬髯客传》、《虬髯翁》和《风尘三侠之红拂女》为例 = Retelling “The legend of curled beard” : examples from Tang, Ming and Contemporary... by 梁琇涵 Leong, Xiu Han

“…The Tang short story provides the base plot for all the other adaptations, portraying a majestic hero Curled Beard who is as wise as the second Tang Emperor Li Shi Min. The Ming play aims to persuade the rebels at that time to stop their rebellion by showing how the wise Curled Beard decide to expand his territory overseas and not overthrow the dynasty. …”
