  • A Vision-Based Navigation System for Tamsui Historical Buildings
    A Vision-Based Navigation System for Tamsui Historical Buildings Wen-Chuan Wu1, Zi-Wei Lin1, and Yi-Hui Chen2 1Dept. of Computer Science & Information Engineering, Aletheia University, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. E-mail: [email protected] Tel: +886-2-26212121 2Dept. of Information Science & Applications, Aisa University, Taichung, Taiwan, R.O.C. E-mail: [email protected] Tel: +886-4-23323456 Abstract—This paper proposes a vision-based navigation system for Tamsui historical buildings. Most travelers in Tamsui take a picture of the historical buildings by using their mobile phone's camera. Our system is designed to automatically extract the color and edge features out of images, and then search similar images from an image database by comparing with these features. For the searched buildings, their contextual navigation and 3D model will be displayed or projected in a screen. This makes the navigation process easier and more interesting. Experimental results showed that the proposed scheme retrieves the target building images effectively and accurately. Fig. 1 The simple architecture of a typical CBIR system. I.

  • Analysis of the Spatiotemporal Transformation of Fort San Domingo in Tamsui, Taiwan, from the Perspective of Cultural Imagination
    This paper is part of the Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Defence Sites: Heritage and Future (DSHF 2016) www.witconferences.com Analysis of the spatiotemporal transformation of Fort San Domingo in Tamsui, Taiwan, from the perspective of cultural imagination C.-Y. Chang Ministry of the Interior, Architecture and Building Institute, Taiwan, ROC Abstract The timeline of transformation of Fort San Domingo shows that between the 1630s and 1860s it was used as a military defense; from the 1860s–1970s as a foreign consulate and then from the 1980s–2010s as a historical site. We can see different and contradictory explanations of the cultural imagination of remembrance, exoticism and the symbolism of anti-imperialism from the historical context of this military building. Keywords: spatiotemporal transformation, Fort San Domingo, Tamsui, cultural imagination. 1 Introduction Fort San Domingo is rather young compared to forts built in Europe, yet it has a different historical meaning for this island located in Eastern Asia. Fort San Domingo (聖多明哥城) was one of the earliest Grade I heritage sites first appointed under the Cultural Heritage Preservation Act in 1982. It is the most well preserved fortress that can be dated back to the golden age of expeditions made by the Dutch East India Company during the colonial era. Moreover, Fort San Domingo is also the first heritage that has been transformed into a modern museum. Named the Tamsui Historical Museum of New Taipei City, the fort and its surrounding historical buildings were listed as a Potential World Heritage Site in Taiwan by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage.

  • Violence and Predation, Mainly in the Form of Piracy, Were Two Of
    violence and predation robert j. antony Violence and Predation on the Sino-Vietnamese Maritime Frontier, 1450–1850 iolence and predation, mainly in the form of piracy, were two of V the most persistent and pervasive features of the Sino-Vietnamese maritime frontier between the mid-fifteenth and mid-nineteenth cen- turies.1 In the Gulf of Tonkin, which is the focus of this article, piracy was, in fact, an intrinsic feature of this sea frontier and a dynamic and significant force in the region’s economic, social, and cultural devel- opment. My approach, what scholars call history from the bottom up, places pirates, not the state, at center stage, recognizing their impor- tance and agency as historical actors. My research is based on various types of written history, including Qing archives, the Veritable Records of Vietnam and China, local Chinese gazetteers, and travel accounts; I also bring in my own fieldwork in the gulf region conducted over the past six years. The article is divided into three sections: first, I discuss the geopolitical characteristics of this maritime frontier as a background to our understanding of piracy in the region; second, I consider the socio-cultural aspects of the gulf region, especially the underclass who engaged in clandestine activities as a part of their daily lives; and third, I analyze five specific episodes of piracy in the Gulf of Tonkin. The Gulf of Tonkin (often referred to here simply as the gulf), which is tucked away in the northwestern corner of the South China Sea, borders on Vietnam in the west and China in the north and east.
