Face Identification in the Internet Era
(2013-02-11)Despite decades of effort in academia and industry, it is not yet possible to build machines that can replicate many seemingly-basic human perceptual abilities. This work focuses on the problem of face identification that ... -
Face processing improvements in prosopagnosia: successes and failures over the last 50 years
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2014)Clinicians and researchers have widely believed that face processing cannot be improved in prosopagnosia. Though more than a dozen reported studies have attempted to enhance face processing in prosopagnosics over the last ... -
Face recognition: a model specific ability
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2014)In our everyday lives, we view it as a matter of course that different people are good at different things. It can be surprising, in this context, to learn that most of what is known about cognitive ability variation across ... -
Face Transfer with Multilinear Models
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2006)Face Transfer is a method for mapping videorecorded performances of one individual to facial animations of another. It extracts visemes (speech-related mouth articulations), expressions, and three-dimensional (3D) pose ... -
Face-Off: Facial Features and Strategic Choice
(Wiley, 2013-08-19)I study experimentally a single-shot trust game where players have the opportunity to choose an avatara computer-generated faceto represent them. These avatars vary on several dimensionstrustworthiness, dominance, and ... -
Face-Selective Nucleation of Calcite on Self-Assembled Monolayers of Alkanethiols: Effect of the Parity of the Alkyl Chain
(Wiley, 2003)In‐line for promotion: A study of self‐assembled monolayers of sulfanylalkanoic acids containing odd and even numbers of methylene groups supported on gold and silver has demonstrated that the crystallographic direction ... -
Facet-Selective Growth on Nanowires Yields Multi-Component Nanostructures and Photonic Devices
(American Chemical Society, 2013)Enhanced synthetic control of the morphology, crystal structure, and composition of nanostructures can drive advances in nanoscale devices. Axial and radial semiconductor nanowires are examples of nanostructures with one ... -
‘Face’ and the embodiment of stigma in China: The cases of schizophrenia and AIDS
(Elsevier BV, 2008)The majority of theoretical models have defined stigma as occurring psychologically and limit its negative effects to individual processes. This paper, via an analysis of how 'face' is embodied in China, deepens an ... -
Facilitating the participation of civil society in regional planning: Implementing quadruple helix model in Finnish regions
(Elsevier BV, 2022-01)The engagement of a wide range of stakeholders has become a key element in regional planning, particularly in the development of regional research and innovation strategies for smart specialization (RIS3) in Europe. The ... -
The Facilitation of Protein-DNA Search and Recognition by Multiple Modes of Binding
(2012-12-12)The studies discussed in this thesis unify experimental and theoretical techniques, both established and novel, in investigating the problem of how a protein that binds specific sites on DNA translocates to, recognizes, ... -
Facilitation stabilizes moisture-controlled alpine juniper shrublines in the central Tibetan Plateau
(Elsevier BV, 2015)The Tibetan Plateau hosts one of the world's highest undisturbed alpine juniper shrublines. However, little is known about the dynamics of these shrublines in response to climate warming and shrub-to-shrub interactions. ... -
Facilitative Boundary Leadership: Enabling Collaboration in Complex, Multi-Organizational Work
(2015-05-11)Increasing complexity, flatter organizational structures and rapidly changing environments require coordination and collaboration with individuals and teams across organizations. As teams navigate these complex organizational ... -

Facing the Limits of Fiction: Self-Consciousness in Jewish American Literature
(2013-03-15)This thesis explores the limits of fictional language by studying the work of Jewish American writer-critics, novelists who significantly engaged with literary criticism, and critics who experimented with the novel or short ... -
A factor analysis approach to examining relationships among ovarian steroid concentrations, gonadotrophin concentrations and menstrual cycle length characteristics in healthy, cycling women
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2013)STUDY QUESTION: How are ovarian steroid concentrations, gonadotrophins and menstrual cycle characteristics inter-related within normal menstrual cycles? SUMMARY ANSWER: Within cycles, measures of estradiol production ... -
Factor Prices and Productivity Growth During the British Industrial Revolution
(Elsevier, 2003)This paper presents new estimates of total factor productivity growth in Britain for the period 1770–1860. We use the dual technique and argue that the estimates we derive from factor prices are of similar quality to ... -
Factored Reasoning for Monitoring Dynamic Team and Goal Formation

Factored Sampling For Efficient Tracking of Large Hybrid Systems
(2005)This work presents a new approach to monitoring large dynamic systems. The approach is based on factored particles, which adapts particle filtering by factoring the system into weakly interacting subsystems and maintaining ... -
Factored Time-Lapse Video
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2007)We describe a method for converting time-lapse photography captured with outdoor cameras into Factored Time-Lapse Video (FTLV): a video in which time appears to move faster (i.e., lapsing) and where data at each pixel has ... -
Factorization and Precision Calculations in Particle Physics
(2015-05-06)We state and prove to all orders in perturbation theory a factorization theorem in Quantum Chromodynamics that concisely describes the separation of the physics associated with jet formation from that associated with the ...
