The spinning class, taught by Laurence Lasker, a private detective in Chicago who lives in New Buf- falo, is a high intensity workout on a stationary bi- cycle that has a 40-pound front wheel. The workout is set to music in which participants pedal at vari- ous speeds, all the while doing various exercises. “The real competition in the workout isn’t with each other, but with yourself,” said Lasker, who teaches the spinning class at Gold’s and is a mem- ber of the Coast Guard Auxiliary in Michigan City. “This is the least I can do for these guys who give so much to our country,” said Lasker. “The Coast Guard is a terrifi c organization. I’m on the water all summer long and I see what these guys do.” Along with the physical workout, Polzin said one of her goals was to build camaraderie. “Team build- Before each workout at the Naval Armory on Trail Creek, members of the ing is part of what we’re doing.

For 34-year-old Petty Offi cer Scott O’Brien of Dayton, Texas, one of the older members of the unit, the spinning workout was a chance to test himself. O’Brien has been in the Coast Guard for 15 years, but has been assigned to Michigan City for less than a year. “I want to do my 20 and get out,” said O’Brien. “I’m looking to be a game warden in Texas.” O’Brien is the unit’s training petty offi cer, making sure new arrivals are properly acquainted with the equip- ment assigned to the Michigan City station. He, too, was assigned to the Gulf area at the Grand Isle, La., station not far from New Orleans and also has spent time at the station in Hilo, Ha- waii, and was involved in drug interdiction efforts in the Caribbean. “Being assigned here gives me a unique look at the Great Lakes,” said O’Brien. He said he was especially interested in the spin- ning class because “I hope to lose about 50 pounds.” Away from the station, he has gotten involved with students at Knapp Elementary School in Michigan City, where his wife is a teacher.

Richards) For Petty Offi cer Tim Jones, 22, of El Paso, Texas, the Coast Guard is a temporary career, a stop along the way to something else. Jones, who grew up in El Paso, Texas, has been in the Coast Guard for four years. He most recently was assigned to a station in Paris Landing, Tenn.

Ma.

The Gated Multimodal Unit (GMU) model is intended to be used as an internal unit in a neural network architecture whose purpose is to find an intermediate representation based on a combination of data from different modal- ities. The GMU learns to decide how modalities influence the activation of the unit using multiplicative gates. It was evaluated on a multilabel scenario for genre classification of movies using the plot and the poster. The GMU improved the macro f-score performance of single-modality approaches and outperformed other fusion strategies, including mixture of experts models. Along with this work, the MM-IMDb dataset is released which, to the best of our knowledge, is the largest publicly available multimodal dataset for genre prediction on movies. 1 INTRODUCTION Representation learning methods have received a lot of attention by researchers and practitioners because of its successful application to complex problems in areas such as computer vision, speech recognition and text processing (LeCun et al., 2015).

INTRODUCTION Statistics Canada (STC) is in its fifth year of a multi-year project to implement a central metadata repository in support of its on-line data dissemination activities. The Integrated Metadatabase (IMDB), being implemented in phases, stores information on each of STC’s nearly 400 active surveys. The system was implemented in November 2000 and improvements have been made gradually since then. Another milestone was attained in the fall of 2002 with the implementation of hyperlinks from data release articles in The Daily on STC’s web site to the IMDB record(s) describing the survey(s) from which the data are produced. The information presently available in the IMDB consists of a general description of the survey, its target population, its methodology - segmented into 10 components - and of measures of the accuracy of the statistics produced. The present development phase aims at storing in the IMDB the names and definitions of the statistical variables produced by each survey, along with the classifications used. At first, only variables disseminated through CANSIM, STC’s corporate data dissemination database, will be covered.
