Il periodo natalizio ogni anno si rinnova nelle varie tradizioni che si attuano all'interno delle famiglie a seconda del periodo storico nel quale stiamo vivendo. Questo momento, magico e malinconico, iconico ed allo stesso tempo comune, nel senso che ci accomuna ad uno stesso sentore, è difficile da ignorare. Per le strade, nelle case, nelle piazze risuona questa sensazione che difficilmente si può ritrovare in altri periodi dell'anno. Proprio queste sensazioni attraverso delle storie vengono raccontate e ambientate in luoghi fantastici o in ambienti reali che sono studiati e descritti in modo che il lettore riesca ad immedesimarsi nel racconto. Racconti che non hanno età e che vogliono raccontare diversi modi di vivere il periodo natalizio. L'idea nasce proprio da uno di questi racconti che nella notte tra il 24 ed il 25 dicembre mi arriva alla mail. Non ricordo esattamente l'anno, all'inizio penso che sia il solito messaggio di auguri, ma quando inizio a leggere capisco che era qualcosa di diverso. C'era un messaggio, il tentativo di trasmettere un'emozione e di far passare qualche minuto diverso in quella giornata. Rispondo al mittente del messaggio ringraziandolo del pensiero, anche perché non pensavo si cimentasse nella scrittura, dato che lo conoscevo come fotografo di professione, e torno a preparare da mangiare per il pranzo di Natale. L'anno successivo il rituale si ripete, un altro racconto, completamente diverso, un'altra ambientazione, un altro messaggio, altri modi di narrare il Natale. Anche questa volta ringrazio e inizio a pensare che forse non fosse casuale l'invio queste storielline. Anno dopo anno quando si avvicina il Natale una storia è in costruzione, un'ambientazione, un messaggio universale e condiviso, un mezzo semplice nato unicamente per fare gli auguri che però ho subito pensato dovesse avere una diffusione maggiore. Il problema divenne come creare questo mezzo, provare a pubbli-carla sul giornale, però ci potevano essere dei problemi, ed intanto gli anni passavano, finché non ho proposto all'autore una raccolta delle storielline. Un libro, illustrato da artisti che potessero valorizzare le varie storie, un esperimento letterario dove viene descritto come un'unica persona vede il Natale ed allo stesso modo, anno dopo anno, come l'ha visto mutare a seconda dei suoi sentimenti, di quello che viveva, di quello che provava all'interno della sua visione. Così nasce "Visioni Natalizie" dall'unione di una narrazione sempre diversa, ma dello stesso autore, Giacomo Mozzi, e di opere di artisti che hanno voluto cimentarsi con la sua particolare visione del Natale. Alla fine tutti noi abbiamo una storia che vorremmo leggere o perché no anche talvolta vivere per Natale e Giacomo ha provato a farcela immaginare attraverso la sua fantasia. Silvia Landi

Throughout much of machine vision’s early years the infrared imagery has suffered from return on investment despite its advantages over visual counterparts. Recently, the ?scal momentum has switched in favor of both manufacturers and practitioners of infrared technology as a result of today’s rising security and safety challenges and advances in thermographic sensors and their continuous drop in costs. This yielded a great impetus in achieving ever better performance in remote surveillance, object recognition, guidance, noncontact medical measurements, and more. The purpose of this book is to draw attention to recent successful efforts made on merging computer vision applications (nonmilitary only) and nonvisual imagery, as well as to ?ll in the need in the literature for an up-to-date convenient reference on machine vision and infrared technologies. Augmented Perception in Infrared provides a comprehensive review of recent deployment of infrared sensors in modern applications of computer vision, along with in-depth description of the world’s best machine vision algorithms and intel- gent analytics. Its topics encompass many disciplines of machine vision, including remote sensing, automatic target detection and recognition, background modeling and image segmentation, object tracking, face and facial expression recognition, - variant shape characterization, disparate sensors fusion, noncontact physiological measurements, night vision, and target classi?cation. Its application scope includes homeland security, public transportation, surveillance, medical, and military. Mo- over, this book emphasizes the merging of the aforementioned machine perception applications and nonvisual imaging in intensi?ed, near infrared, thermal infrared, laser, polarimetric, and hyperspectral bands.

Philosophy and Vision argues that clear thinking and imaginative understanding are necessary qualities as we try to deal with the problems that confront us in our daily life. The book discusses history, the environment, religion, personal and corporate morality, freedom, the concept of person, poetry, and post-modernism attempts to show that as a philosophic vision is brought to bear on all of these, we will grasp them more completely and more constructively. The issues which challenge most of us seldom have straightforward answers, but they require some answers, some response other than failing out of our emotions. Attempting to see these philosophically, to adopt a philosophic vision, is no panacea, but it may make the difference between being overwhelmed and being able to cope. The book has a crisp enjoyable style, and while it is a philosophical work it draws upon movies, fiction, poetry, and life's experiences in developing its arguments.

Visual perception is one of the most important sources of information for both humans and robots. A particular challenge is the acquisition and interpretation of complex unstructured scenes. This work contributes to active vision for humanoid robots. A semantic model of the scene is created, which is extended by successively changing the robot's view in order to explore interaction possibilities of the scene.

The Meritocratic Promise Of Classical Liberalism written by Peter Wedekind and has been published by Verlag Traugott Bautz this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on with Philosophy categories.
In an era of Market Triumphalism, this book follows the quest to address a myriad of prominent socio-economic pathologies in Western democracies – such as skyrocketing financial inequality, marketization, hereditary privileges, as well as dysfunctional types of merit-based justice – without surrendering their liberal foundation altogether in favor of an entirely different political framework. The author argues that classical liberalism should be regarded as a valuable doctrine worth keeping, and that the liberal tradition is not inevitably destined to succumb into the neoliberal and increasingly plutocratic as well as nepotistic manifestation responsible for the growing discontentment with the ‘liberal order’ during the past approximately four decades. Instead, the meritocratic promise inherent to classical liberalism must be taken more serious as a principle of justice and efficiency which – in turn – should be instrumentalized as an imperative for the provision of substantially greater equality of opportunity. The argument culminates in an advocacy for significantly higher levels of state regulations – for example via taxation to make higher education accessible to all sufficiently talented students independent of their family background – based on the claim that such interventions are justified if they bring about the levelled playing field necessary to a genuine meritocracy. Correspondingly, the author proposes policies more frequently associated with the postulates of social welfare egalitarians, however, he does so exclusively from within the pond of classical liberal principles.
