Abstract:

The work in this thesis aims at studying the problems related to the robustness of a face recognition system where specific attention is given to the issues of handling the image variation complexity and inherent limited Unique Characteristic Information (UCI) within the scope of unfamiliar identity recognition environment. These issues will be the main themes in developing a mutual understanding of extraction and classification tasking strategies and are carried out as a two interdependent but related blocks of research work. Naturally, the complexity of the image variation problem is built u

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to increase knowledge and understanding of how an identity is constructed on the internet and if it is different from the everyday identity. To analyze this, I have studied the theories of how identity is constructed in everyday life and then applied this on the empirical data that I have collected. In this study, I have chosen to pursue a qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews to gather the empirical data. In the study, six informants participated and all of them has an active social life both on and off the internet. The results that I have found i

Abstract:

This dissertation deals with current political immigration debates, the conversations about the philosophical concept of recognition, and intercultural encounters in contemporary German literature. By reading contemporary literature in connection with philosophical, psychological, and theoretical works, new problem areas of the liberal promise of recognition become visible. Tied to assumptions of cultural essentialism, language use, and prejudice, one of the main findings of this work is how the recognition process is closely tied to narrative. Particularly within developmental psychology it i

Abstract:

Every day we encounter a variety of people, and we need to recognize their identity to interact with them appropriately. The most common ways to recognize a person's identity include the recognition of a face and of a voice. Recognizing a face or a voice is effortless, but the neural mechanisms that enable us to do so are complex. The face of a same person can look very different depending on the viewpoint and it can be partly occluded. Analogously, a voice can sound very different when it is saying different words. The neural mechanisms that enable us to recognize a person's identity need to

In this paper, the author looks at the impact of the policy of federal recognition on a Los Angeles basin Native community: the Gabrielino Tongva. The first section, the literature review focuses on the difficulties of defining “indigenousness” in the academic and political realms, as well as looking at Native scholars’ conceptualization of this unique and multifaceted identity. After a consideration of the theoretical framework of the study, the crossroads between anthropology and public policy analysis, the author presents the tools she used in her study, namely: participant observation, key

Abstract:

This thesis explores the philosophy and politics of recognition. Specifically, it examines the connections between identity, feminism and recognition politics. The thesis draws on feminist and post-structuralist theories of the subject to challenge contemporary models of recognition, especially as formulated by Axel Honneth and Charles Taylor. Consequently, the overarching aim of the thesis is threefold: (I) to establish an appropriate model of the subject; Cll) to identify the most promising form of contemporary feminism; and (Ill) to develop a distinctive understanding of recognition which c

Abstract:

Seeing Subjects plots a literary history of modern Britain that begins with Dorian Gray obsessively inspecting his portrait’s changes and ends in Virginia Woolf’s visit to the cinema where she found audiences to be “savages watching the pictures.” Focusing on how literature in the late-19th and 20th centuries regarded images as possessing a shaping force over how identities are understood and performed, I argue that modernists in Britain felt mediated images were altering, rather than merely representing, British identity.

Abstract:

Hegel's discussion of the development of self-consciousness in the Phenomenology of Spirit has often been used as a model for political liberation. Political philosophy and feminism in particular, often assume that the precondition for political change is the subject's autonomous position. This is an assumption coloured by Kojeve's reading of Hegel. Kojeve's interpretation of the Hegelian narrative has, in turn, influenced feminist theorists of self, such as Simone de Beauvoir, J essica Benjamin, and Luce Irigaray. Since these feminist theories of self approach Hegel through Kojeve they establ

This thesis examines the development of identity of people with learning difficulties. It concentrates on an aspect which has hitherto not received significant attention, that is the importance of recognition of work in the developmental process. In order to do this the thesis defines work in a particular way, based on the work of E Jaques. It defines work in terms of the decision making process which leads to an external transformation of the world. It is the recognition of this transformation by another person which affirms the actor and enhances a sense of self. For this recognition to be e

Frequently monitoring the identity of a person connected to a secure system is an important component in a cyber-security system. Identity Assurance (IA) mechanisms which continuously confirm and verify users’ identity after the initial authentication process ensure integrity and security. Such systems prevent unauthorized access and eliminate the need of an authorized user to present credentials repeatedly for verification. Very few cyber-security systems deploy such IA modules. These IA modules are typically based on computer vision and machine learning algorithms. These algorithms work effe

Multi-touch tablets allow users to interact with computers through intuitive, natural gestures and direct manipulation of digital objects. One advantage of these devices is that they can offer a large, collaborative space where several users can work on a task at the same time. However the lack of privacy in these situations makes standard password-based authentication easily compromised. This work presents a new gesture-based authentication system based on users' unique signature of touch motion. This technique has two key features.

Abstract:

Scholars debate the importance of multiracial identity recognition as the increasing number of self-identified multiracial individuals challenges traditional racial categories. Two reasons justify the count of multiracial individuals on censuses. One is the right to self-identification, derived from personal autonomy. The other is social: the category allows governments to accurately assess affirmative action programs’ results and society’s acceptance of multiracialism.

This dissertation examines the emergence of norms and the process through which these influence state behaviour.

Hence, the ethnic or civic identity of Germany, France, Greece and Italy influenced their policy on recognition of the former Yugoslav republics of Slovenia, Croatia, FYROM (Macedonia) and Bosnia-Herzegovina. Nevertheless, the examination of these policies indicates that these preferences were tempered by security concerns and perceptions of threat. Hence, altho

Abstract:

The thesis argues that to find the places in media culture where the face transmits death, we need to look beyond the immobilised faces of the dead. Drawing on Walter Benjamin's philosophy of the image, the thesis sees the phenomenon of becoming unrecognisable as a particular practice of the image in which the face becomes a viable site for making death transmissible. It is argued that by paying attention to instances in media culture in which a face becomes unrecognisable, we can see how death is made visible as a dialectic between recognition and unrecognisability, appearance and disappearan

Abstract:

The principal aim of this thesis was to further understanding of the factors influencing decisions to seek treatment for Major Depressive Disorder. A review of the literature (Chapter 2) revealed a number of factors associated with help-seeking for mental health disorders. However, there was no existing theoretical model of decisions to seek treatment for MDD, and there was limited understanding of the psychological and emotional processes involved in seeking treatment for depressive symptoms. In Study 1 (Chapter 3), a qualitative study explored participants’ accounts of seeking treatment for

Abstract:

Turkish denial of the Armenian Genocide is the most persistent case of institutionalized genocide denial in recorded history (Stanton, 2010). Through conducting a multimodal critical discourse analysis based on Foucauldian theories of power and exploring the socio-political dimensions of cultural trauma, memory, and photography, this thesis examines genocide denial in the case of the Armenian Genocide and seeks to understand why the ways in which we choose to remember the past matters. Genocide denial provides a compelling case for identifying how discourses legitimize power, politically, judi

Full text

Abstract:

Vocal fundamental frequency (F0) and speech rate provide the listener with important information relating to the identity, sex, and age of the speaker. Furthermore, it has also been demonstrated that manipulations in F0 or speech rate can lead to accentuation effects in voice memory. As a result, listeners appear to exaggerate the representation of a target voice in terms of F0 or speech rate, and mistakenly remember it as being higher or lower in F0, or faster or slower in speech rate, than the voice originally heard. The aim of this thesis was to understand the effect of manipulations/shifts

Abstract:

This study explored how the recovery of victims of sexual abuse is shaped by services available. Using the philosophical underpinnings of critical theory within the framework of Honneth's recognition theory this study provides an understanding of participants' experiences and views of recovery from sexual abuse. The study was conducted with ten adult survivors of sexual abuse using semi-structured individual interviews and two focus groups with eight service providers. The analysis identified that the recovery from sexual abuse is the development of a positive sense of identity reflected by pa

Abstract:

L’ouvrage souhaite apporter des clarifications et des définitions à propos des artistes évoluant dans les cabarets toulousains. L’objectif est de détecter les « processus de légitimation » que ceux-ci mettent en oeuvre afin d’asseoir leur légitimité, sociale, culturelle, familiale, artistique, professionnelle. Couronnés d’une aura de mystère de par leur statut de travailleur, leur mode de vie, leur emploi du temps, leurs rites et codes, leur organisation en réseaux, leurs cercles sociaux et leurs carrières atypiques, le sens commun aurait tendance à les étiqueter de « particuliers », « différe

However，if online courses are not liked by autonomous learners，they may not complete the course in front of media during the process of online teaching. This will be a big issue for teaching on the internet. In order to identify learner status and deeply understand whether learners concentrate on learning from media image, it is necessary to develop facial rec
