This document defines and provides examples of different types of matrices including row, column, rectangular, transpose, opposite, square, symmetrical, identical, reverse, and triangular matrices. It also covers matrix operations such as addition, multiplication, and inverse matrices. Key points are that a matrix is an arrangement of numbers or other items in rows and columns, and different types of matrices are classified based on their size, elements, and properties such as symmetry.
- The document describes an algorithm called seed-and-spawn that searches for matching local regions between two images by propagating an initial set of seed matches. It does this by spawning new matches from existing matches at different image scales and locations, continuously matching regions at coarser and finer scales.
- The algorithm takes an initial set of seed matches and refines them before adding them to a priority queue. It then repeatedly spawns new matches from the highest priority match and refines the spawns. Matches that satisfy criteria are added to the solution.
- The algorithm was evaluated on an object recognition benchmark and shown to significantly increase the discriminative power of a state-of-the-art local feature matching method.
This presentation covers tips and tricks for game developers and covers a little bit of everything for both work for hire developers, as well as those creating their own IP.
The document outlines security procedures for visitors and duties of security personnel. It instructs security to be courteous to visitors, confirm appointments, and have visitors declare electronic devices. Any misconduct should be reported. Visitors must sign in and details of devices recorded. Visitors should be escorted and not left alone.

This document provides a yearly scheme of work for Year 6. It outlines the weekly themes, learning outcomes, specifications, grammar/vocabulary, moral values and thinking skills, and textbook pages for each week. The scheme covers 10 weeks and includes units on personal relationships, the world of sport, bright ideas, and long ago stories. Each week focuses on developing students' listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills through lessons targeting pronunciation, vocabulary, comprehension, sentence construction, and description writing. Moral values such as honesty, diligence, and cooperation are also emphasized.

The document discusses open source software and innovation. It notes that open source has disrupted the software industry by being technically, economically, and strategically efficient. Open source is also an innovation driver where quality gains momentum. Big data, NoSQL databases, semantic data, and visualization tools are discussed in the context of supporting innovation. The OW2 Consortium provides long-term sustainability for open source technology innovation through technical support and governance.
The document presents an investment opportunity in the Russian automotive aftermarket industry. It proposes developing a chain of Automotive Retail Trade-Service Centers across Russia to capitalize on the gap between customer demand and the offerings of current industry players. The centers would provide a full range of automotive parts, services, and customer satisfaction in an integrated business model. Financial projections estimate the pilot cluster investment would be $17.2 million with a 44% ROI and 25% IRR over 5 years. The presentation seeks $3-45 million in investment for commercial real estate and operating capital to launch this retail chain.
The port of Montevideo exported over 750,000 tons of wood chips in 2008. Wood is harvested and chipped at mills before being transported by truck to the port, where two belt conveyors unload two trucks simultaneously into a vessel's hold. It takes approximately 65 trucks making 1,900 loads over 8 days to load an average of 38,500 tons of wood chips onto a vessel at a rate of 300 tons per hour.

The Flink family took a trip to Loch Ness in Scotland. While there, twins Tim and Sara became fascinated by the local legend of the Loch Ness Monster called Nessie. They hatched a plan to rent wetsuits and dive in the lake to try to find and photograph Nessie to earn some money. During their dive, they claimed to spot Nessie but Sara accidentally dropped and lost her camera at the bottom of the lake.
Este documento presenta estrategias para la búsqueda y uso de recursos educativos abiertos. Explica las 4Rs de los recursos abiertos: reutilización, revisión, remix y redistribución. También describe pasos para una búsqueda efectiva de información, incluyendo el uso de filtros, evaluación de fuentes confiables y almacenamiento de recursos encontrados. El objetivo general es que los estudiantes aprendan a identificar recursos educativos abiertos de calidad sobre la historia de la educación abierta.
This document discusses different stakeholders in open source software communities and their motivations. It notes that wetware, or the people involved, define open source projects more than the code itself. Stakeholders include sponsors, core contributors, other contributors, ecosystem partners, and end users, all of whom participate and contribute for different reasons. Alignment of vision, methods, leadership, and priorities is important for community health and sustainability.
I talked about using advanced time series methods to analyze cross channel advertising problems, like attribution analysis, cross channel budge allocation. I added an empirical study to analyze TV advertising and Search Advertising.
Este documento describe un proyecto para crear una red virtual de formación y documentación abierta utilizando recursos educativos abiertos (REA) a través de prácticas educativas abiertas. El proyecto busca ofrecer una plataforma para compartir REA, experiencias y formación; explorar y utilizar herramientas REA para crear una red con fines pedagógicos; y promover el uso y compartir de REA. Se propone utilizar herramientas como Prezi, Google+, Facebook, YouTube y Dropbox para este fin.
While some claim there is no management in free and open source software projects, the document argues that project management is still important for coordination, organization, planning, and motivation. It discusses how open source projects are started and transitioned, and some of the challenges for sustaining development, such as attracting and managing volunteers, documentation, and dealing with corporate involvement. The document advocates for different project management styles and coordination in open source projects while respecting their distributed and voluntary nature.
