2. 21. Active and Physics-Based Human Pose Reconstruction

   Author : Erik Gärtner; Matematik LTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computer vision; human pose estimation; reinforcement learning; physics-based human pose estimation; active learning;

   Abstract : Perceiving humans is an important and complex problem within computervision. Its significance is derived from its numerous applications, suchas human-robot interaction, virtual reality, markerless motion capture,and human tracking for autonomous driving. The difficulty lies in thevariability in human appearance, physique, and plausible body poses. READ MORE

6. 24. Digital Capability and Business Model Reconfiguration : a co-evolutionary perspective

   Author : Behrooz Golshan; Anita Mirijamdotter; Patrik Elm; Rana Mostaghel; Sandberg Johan; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Digital capability; Business Model Change; Interorganisational collaborations; Co-exploration and Co-exploitation; Informatik; Information Systems;

   Abstract : While IT-enabled innovations continue to disrupt long-lasting industries, emerging concepts and theories seek to explain implications of digitalisation on its value, competition and organisation. Over the past two decades, the notions of digital capability and business model reconfiguration as antecedents of organisational performance have become increasingly influential in the Information Systems literature.

   Abstract : The human body is capable of very rich and complex movements and gestures which we use in everyday life to manipulate, navigate and negotiate the world around us—it is our interface for human experience. However, as technology advances it simultaneously shrinks, moving closer to our bodies, intertwining with the many facets of our lives and positions itself between our experiences of the physical environments around us.
