  • Overcoming Obesity: an Initial Economic Analysis
    McKinsey Global Institute McKinsey Global Institute Overcoming obesity: An initial economic analysis obesity: An initial Overcoming November 2014 Overcoming obesity: An initial economic analysis Discussion paper The McKinsey Global Institute The McKinsey Global Institute (MGI), the business and economics research arm of McKinsey & Company, was established in 1990 to develop a deeper understanding of the evolving global economy. Our goal is to provide leaders in the commercial, public, and social sectors with the facts and insights on which to base management and policy decisions. MGI research combines the disciplines of economics and management, employing the analytical tools of economics with the insights of business leaders. Our “micro-to-macro” methodology examines microeconomic industry trends to better understand the broad macroeconomic forces affecting business strategy and public policy. MGI’s indepth reports have covered more than 20 countries and 30 industries. Current research focuses on six themes: productivity and growth; natural resources; labor markets; the evolution of global financial markets; the economic impact of technology and innovation; and urbanization. Recent reports have assessed job creation, resource productivity, cities of the future, the economic impact of the Internet, and the future of manufacturing. MGI is led by McKinsey & Company directors Richard Dobbs, James Manyika, and Jonathan Woetzel. Michael Chui, Susan Lund, and Jaana Remes serve as MGI partners. Project teams are led by a group of senior fellows and include consultants from McKinsey & Company’s offices around the world. These teams draw on McKinsey & Company’s global network of partners and industry and management experts. In addition, leading economists, including Nobel laureates, act as research advisers.

    Chen ZN, Ngo C-W, Zhang W et al. Name-Face Association in Web Videos: A Large-Scale Dataset, Baselines, and Open Issues. JOURNAL OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Vol.(No.):1-end Mon. Year Name-Face Association in Web Videos: A Large-Scale Dataset, Baselines, and Open Issues Zhineng Chen1,2 (陈智能), Chong-Wah Ngo2, (杨宗桦), Member, IEEE, Wei Zhang2 (张炜), Juan Cao3 (曹娟), and Yu-Gang Jiang4 (姜育刚) 1Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100190, China 2Department of Computer Science, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China 3Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100190, China 4School of Computer Science, Fudan University, Shanghai, 200433, China E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract Associating faces appearing in Web videos with names presented in the surrounding context is an important task in many applications. However, the problem is not well investigated particularly under large-scale realistic scenario, mainly due to the scarcity of dataset constructed in such circumstance. In this paper, we introduce a Web video dataset of celebrities, named WebV-Cele, for name-face association. The dataset consists of 75,073 Internet videos of over 4,000 hours, covering 2,427 celebrities and 649,001 faces. This is to our knowledge the most comprehensive dataset for this problem. We describe the details of dataset construction, discuss several interesting findings by analyzing this dataset like celebrity com- munity discovery, and provide experimental results of name-face association using five existing tech- niques.

  • City University of Hong Kong 香港城市大學
    CITY UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG 香港城市大學 Multimedia Content Understanding by Analyzing Perceived Signals: Face, Sentiment and Emotion 基於人臉、情感和情緒等感知信號的多媒 體內容解析 Submitted to Department of Computer Science 電腦科學系 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 哲學博士學位 by Pang Lei 龐磊 November 2015 二零一五年十一月 ii ABSTRACT Content understanding of unconstrained user-generated videos is a challenging task, due to the difficulty in mining semantics out of rich visual-audio signals in addition to the sparse and subjective text descriptions. This thesis addresses the challenge by multi-modal analysis of three perceived signals: face, sentiment and emotion, for cross-media exploratory browsing. Specifically, we study approaches in naming faces for video browsing, predicting sentiment underlying short video clips for question-answering, and emotion categorization for cross-modal retrieval. The results of analysis for the three signals are then integrated into a system for search navigation and exploration in large video archive. Face naming is challenging due to large variations of face appearances in uncon- strained videos. Instead of relying on accurate face labels for supervised learning, a rich set of relationships automatically derived from video content and knowledge from image domain and social cues is leveraged for unsupervised face labeling. The relationships refer to the appearances of faces under different spatio–temporal contexts and their visual similarities. The knowledge includes Web images weakly tagged with celebrity names and the celebrity social networks. The relationships and knowledge are elegantly encoded using conditional random field (CRF) for label inference. Two versions of face annotation are considered: within-video and between–video face labeling.
