Estimating Human Pose from Occluded Images (ACCV 2009)Jia-Bin Huang
We address the problem of recovering 3D human pose from single 2D images, in which the pose estimation problem is formulated as a direct nonlinear regression from image observation to 3D joint positions. One key issue that has not been addressed in the literature is how to estimate 3D pose when humans in the scenes are partially or heavily occluded. When occlusions occur, features extracted from image observations (e.g., silhouettes-based shape features, histogram of oriented gradient, etc.) are seriously corrupted, and consequently the regressor (trained on un-occluded images) is unable to estimate pose states correctly. In this paper, we present a method that is capable of handling occlusions using sparse signal representations, in which each test sample is represented as a compact linear combination of training samples. The sparsest solution can then be efficiently obtained by solving a convex optimization problem with certain norms (such as l1-norm). The corrupted test image can be recovered with a sparse linear combination of un-occluded training images which can then be used for estimating human pose correctly (as if no occlusions exist). We also show that the proposed approach implicitly performs relevant feature selection with un-occluded test images. Experimental results on synthetic and real data sets bear out our theory that with sparse representation 3D human pose can be robustly estimated when humans are partially or heavily occluded in the scenes.

Discussion: Alignment and Social Change
In the context of research, alignment and social change will be important topics to return to as you prepare for the next courses in the research sequence and continue your development as a scholar-practitioner.
Consider, for example, what criteria are used in your discipline to evaluate alignment of research components. And in what way will your future research contribute to your identity as scholar-practitioner who is dedicated to positive social change?
For this Discussion, you will consider criteria for evaluating alignment among the various components of a research study. You will also reflect on your role as a positive social change agent through research.
With these thoughts in mind:
By Day 4
Post
an explanation of the criteria you could use to evaluate alignment between data collection methods and other research components, such as the problem, purpose, research questions, and design. Then, reflecting on the course content, discuss the extent to which your newly acquired research knowledge and skills can support your role as an agent of positive social change. Be specific and provide an example(s).
Be sure to support your Main Issue Post and Response Post with reference to the week’s Learning Resources and other scholarly evidence in APA Style.

Success steps Strategy to Help Youth Through School and Into CareersDaniel Bassill
This presentation outlines strategies developed in a tutor/mentor program I led in Chicago from 1975 to 1992, and a second program that I led in Chicago from 1993 to 2011.
The steps are sequential, and concurrent. For instance, as an out-of-school-time program, youth are volunteers, as are tutors and mentors. A program must continuously work to attract and retain student and volunteer participation.
These are the first two steps. If students don't attend regularly, and return for multiple years, the other steps don't reach them.
This and other presentations created since the 1990s are intended to help leaders, volunteers, donors and policy-makers build and sustain, comprehensive, long-term, mentor-rich youth learning programs in every high poverty area of Chicago and other places.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

1. United Way Youth United Way
2010‐2011 Application Information
United Way’s Youth United Way Program provides a forum for local youth to develop leadership skills and
demonstrate the importance of youth civic involvement as a key component of community change. Their
mission is to expand the leadership qualities of students while contributing to Marion County by volunteering,
fundraising, and making a positive impact within already existing United Way initiatives and funded programs.
The initiative allows for juniors and seniors in high school to serve as volunteers and leaders. As a member of
the class you will be able to elect your own officers, participate in meetings, fundraisers and the United Way
allocation process. You will also have the opportunity to serve on the Campaign Cabinet as well as participate
in Day of Caring. Youth United Way serve as a volunteer group for United Way and the local community.
Some activities might include, but are not limited to: learning about Marion County, giving feedback on
community issues as it relates to teenagers, volunteering, running fundraising campaigns, website design and
connecting with community leaders.
Applicants need to be entering into their junior year of high school in the fall of 2010. Students applying
should be responsible, caring, and motivated by experience and learning. We do require a minimum of a 2.5
grade point average and leadership experience is not a necessity. In fact, we are interested in students who
have great potential, but have not yet had the opportunity to lead. We are looking for students who want to
get involved in their community and make a difference.
There is a monthly meeting requirement that is held on the first Monday of the Month from 6:00‐8:30 pm,
with a welcome reception in June and a Saturday orientation held in August. Attendance and involvement at
events and specific volunteer projects is also expected. The deadline for the application is May 7, 2010. For
