Face Recognition Research Based on Fully Convolution Neural Network
2017 2nd International Conference on Mechatronics and Information Technology (ICMIT 2017) Face Recognition Research Based on Fully Convolution Neural Network YangWang1,a,Jiachun Zheng1,b,* 1Information Engineering College,Jimei University,Xiamen 361021,China [email protected], [email protected]. Keywords: Face recognition; Caffe; CNN; feature extraction Abstract: Face recognition technology has always been a hot topic, and has a widely application in our daily life. In recent years, with the rapid development of deep learning and the birth of various frameworks, face recognition is provided a new platform and ushered in a new opportunity. In this paper, a fully Convolution Neural Network(CNN) based on the Caffe framework and GPU is put forward for face recognition. The accuracy rate of it reaches 99% in the test set. Compared with the traditional extraction feature combined with the classifier method, CNN has a unique advantage, and doesn’t need to manually extract features. 1. Introduction In 2006, Geoffrey Hinton, a professor of machine learning, published a paper on the world's top academic journal Science, which led to the development of deep learning in the field of research and application. In 2011, Microsoft proposed a voice recognition system based on neural network, the existing results completely changed by the results of voice recognition system. Google and Baidu also launched their own network model. The NEC Research Institute first proposed neural networks into natural language processing. In 2012, Alex used the deeper convolution neural network model to achieve the best results in the Image Net game, reducing the original error rate by 9%, making a big step forward in the study of image recognition. -
Public Space Analysis on Spontaneously Formed University
International Conference on Humanities and Social Science (HSS 2016) Public Space Analysis on Spontaneously Formed University Towns on the Basis of Students’ Behaviors to Attend and Dismiss the Class —A Case Study of Shigulu Block in Jimei District, Xiamen City Min-feng YAO1, 2, Sha LIU2 and Run-shen LIU2 1School of Transportation Engineering, TongJi University, Shanghai, China 2School of Architecture, Huaqiao University, Xiamen, Fujian, China Keywords: Behaviors, University town, Jimei School Village, Shigulu Block. Abstract. Jimei School Village is a university town with a history of nearly one hundred years. Its “spontaneous” formation is distinctly different from that of the prevailing “planning-construction” university towns. Under the turning point of public space optimization in Jimei District, this paper took the behaviors of students in the university town to attend and dismiss the class as the breakthrough point to analyze characteristics in the block, so as to understand the demands of students in this special university town for public space. The paper summarized possible shortcomings in Jimei School Village and regarded this as the basis for optimization and reconstruction of the school village. It provided a case for researches on “spontaneous” university towns. History and Current Status of Jimei School Village and Shegulu Blocks Jimei School Village Jimei School Village is located in Jimei District, Xiamen City. It is the general term for all types of schools and cultural institutions in Jimei. The name of Jimei School Village originated in the 1920s. In order to avoid adverse impacts of warlords on students, schools in Jimei made a petition to the State Department to admit Jimei schools as “school villages with permanent peace”, so as to ensure a peaceful learning environment. -

City Branding: Part 2: Observation Towers Worldwide Architectural Icons Make Cities Famous
City Branding: Part 2: Observation Towers Worldwide Architectural Icons Make Cities Famous What’s Your City’s Claim to Fame? By Jeff Coy, ISHC Paris was the world’s most-visited city in 2010 with 15.1 million international arrivals, according to the World Tourism Organization, followed by London and New York City. What’s Paris got that your city hasn’t got? Is it the nickname the City of Love? Is it the slogan Liberty Started Here or the idea that Life is an Art with images of famous artists like Monet, Modigliani, Dali, da Vinci, Picasso, Braque and Klee? Is it the Cole Porter song, I Love Paris, sung by Frank Sinatra? Is it the movie American in Paris? Is it the fact that Paris has numerous architectural icons that sum up the city’s identity and image --- the Eiffel Tower, Arch of Triumph, Notre Dame Cathedral, Moulin Rouge and Palace of Versailles? Do cities need icons, songs, slogans and nicknames to become famous? Or do famous cities simply attract more attention from architects, artists, wordsmiths and ad agencies? Certainly, having an architectural icon, such as the Eiffel Tower, built in 1889, put Paris on the world map. But all these other things were added to make the identity and image. As a result, international tourists spent $46.3 billion in France in 2010. What’s your city’s claim to fame? Does it have an architectural icon? World’s Most Famous City Icons Beyond nicknames, slogans and songs, some cities are fortunate to have an architectural icon that is immediately recognized by almost everyone worldwide. -

Guidance Notes on Application for Mainland University Study Subsidy Scheme 2021/22
M3 Guidance Notes on Application for Mainland University Study Subsidy Scheme 2021/22 1. Mainland University Study Subsidy Scheme The Mainland University Study Subsidy Scheme (MUSSS) aims to support Hong Kong students in pursuing undergraduate studies in the Mainland and ensure that no students will be deprived of post-secondary education opportunity due to a lack of means. The MUSSS comprises two components: “means-tested subsidy” (eligible students who have passed a means test will receive either a full-rate subsidy or a half-rate subsidy, depending on their needs) and “non-means-tested subsidy”. For the 2021/22 academic year, the full-rate subsidy and half-rate subsidy are HK$16,800 and HK$8,400 per annum respectively. The “non-means-tested subsidy” offers a flat rate subsidy of HK$5,600. The subsidy is granted on a yearly basis. The subsidised period is the normal duration of the undergraduate programme pursued by the student concerned in a designated Mainland institution. Eligible applicants can only receive either a means-tested subsidy or a non-means-tested subsidy in a given academic year. The MUSSS is not subject to any quota. For the 2021/22 academic year, there are 189 designated Mainland institutions (see Attachment I), of which 127 have participated in the 2021/22 Admission Scheme and 62 the others. The MUSSS is administered by the Education Bureau (EDB) of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government. The Student Finance Office (SFO) under the Working Family and Student Financial Assistance Agency is responsible for conducting means tests for families applying for the “means-tested subsidy”, while an agency appointed by the EDB assists in verifying students’ admission status, disbursing subsidy, etc. -
