Fashion, Textiles and the Origins of Industrial Revolution
(2016-03-31)This article outlines an argument about the origins of the Industrial Revolution in textiles. It arises from the research project Spinning in the Era of the Spinning Wheel, 1400-1800, a study of spinning in England from ... -
Fashioning Consumers : Ackermann’s Repository of Arts and the Cultivation of the Female Consumer
(Edinburgh University Press, 2018-01-31)Consumption has served as one of the key explanatory frameworks for economic and social change in eighteenth-century Britain. The influence of consumption on debates surrounding political and moral economy has been undeniable, ... -
Fast and accurate spike sorting of high-channel count probes with KiloSort
(2016-12-10)New silicon technology is enabling large-scale electrophysiological recordings in vivo from hundreds to thousands of channels. Interpreting these recordings requires scalable and accurate automated methods for spike sorting, ... -
Fast Beam Training for FDD Multi-User Massive MIMO Systems With Finite Phase Shifter Resolution
(2021-01-01)A fast beam training scheme for the massive antenna arrays is a key to frequency division duplex (FDD) mmWave systems, as channel reciprocity between the down-link (DL) and up-link (UL) channels does not hold in general, ... -
A fast bipolar H2 outflow from IRAS 16342-3814 : An old star reliving its youth
(2012-03)Some evolved stars in the pre-planetary nebula phase produce highly collimated molecular outflows that resemble the accretion-driven jets and outflows from pre-main-sequence stars. We show that IRAS 16342-3814 (the Water ... -
Fast Girls, Foreigners and GIs : An Exploration of the Discursive Strategies Through Which the Status of Pre-Marital (Hetero) sexual Ignorance and Restraint Was Upheld During the Second World War
(2009-11-30)This paper explores contradictions within qualitative data gathered among women and men whose young adulthood coincided with the Second World War. These data were generated as part of an ESRC-funded project which investigated ... -
A Fast Intra/Inter Mode Decision Algorithm of H.264/AVC for Real-time Applications
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)A novel fast Intra/Inter mode decision algorithm for H.264/AVC is proposed in this paper. By reducing the calculations incurred in both intra- and inter-prediction in video encoding, the computational complexity is ... -
A Fast Mode Decision Algorithm in Spatial and Temporal Scalable Video Coding
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2009)To decrease the computational complexity of adaptive inter-layer prediction and improve the encoding efficiency in spatial and temporal scalable video coding, a mode decision algorithm is proposed by exploiting the part ... -
A fast mode decision algorithm of adaptive inter-layer prediction in scalable video coding
(2009)A fast mode decision algorithm is proposed to solve the computation complexity for enhancement hierarchical-B pictures with adaptive inter-layer prediction in H.264/AVC scalable extension, scalable video coding. This method ... -
Fast mode decision for Hierarchical-B pictures in scalable video coding
(2011-08-01)To decrease the computational complexity of adaptive inter-layer prediction and improve the encoding efficiency in scalable video coding, a mode decision algorithm is proposed by exploiting the part of used candidate modes ... -
Fast mode decision for inter-prediction in H.264/AVC
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2007) -
Fast mode selection to reduce the encoding complexity of H.264/AVC
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)Fast mode selection is one of the hottest research topics for H.264/AVC finalized in 2003. Since the computational complexity is still a major challenge for real-time applications, simplification of mode selection is ... -
A fast partial parse of natural language sentences using a connectionist method
(Morgan Kaufmann Publishers Inc., 1995)The pattern matching capabilities of neural networks can be used to locate syntactic constituents of natural language. This paper describes a fully automated--hybrid system, using neural nets operating within a grammatic ... -
Fast wall-following exploration with two cooperating mobile robots
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010)In this paper two cooperating robots are used to explore an unknown environment. The new technique aims to decrease the exploration time and the energy consumption. It combines the wall-following exploration algorithm and ... -
Fat Cities and Food Deserts: : Exploring a socio-spatial continuum
(2007-11-30)Abstract: Just as in Australian cities, European urban areas are suffering an increasing spatial, social, economic and political divide between the food enabled and those whose health is suffering from poor food choices. ... -
