Ample subvarieties and q-ample divisors
(ElsevierAdvances in Mathematics, 2012-03-20)
We introduce a notion of ampleness for subschemes of any codimension
using the theory of q-ample line bundles. We also investigate certain geometric
properties satisfied by ample subvarieties, e.g. the Lefschetz ...
Video quality requirements for South African Sign Language communications over mobile phones.
(2012)
This project aims to find the minimum video resolution and frame rate that supports intelligible cell phone based video communications in South African Sign Language.
Introduction to Python Programming, Part 1
(2012-04)
A first half of a first course on how to program in Python. This set of six files comprises the slides from first 6 weeks of our 12 week first year course on Python Programming. It is an introduction aimed at students who ...
Voxel-space shape grammars
(2012)
The field of Procedural Generation is being increasingly used in modern content generation for its ability to significantly decrease the cost and time involved. One such area of Procedural Generation is Shape Grammars, a ...
Analyzing the impact of mobile technology on mobile-centric youth in South Africa
(2012)
Our research documents the successful development of a system for stakeholders in the low-income urban environment, to facilitate the dissemination of information through enhanced mobile technology. The research project ...
A simulation model for evaluating national patient record networks in South Africa.
(2012)
This study has shown that modelling and simulation is a feasible approach for evaluating NPR solutions in the developing context. The model can represent different network models, patient types and performance metrics to ...
Building heritage collections using games on social networks
(2012)
An application on a social network may provide a means to avoid the cost, decrease time and increase scale of operation of heritage preservation by motivating users to supply and process the data. This project uses a ...
Expert system adjudication of hospital data in HIV disease management
(2012)
HIV Disease Management Programs (DMP's) are comprehensive programs that are designed to manage the HIV infected patient's treatment in an integrated manner.
5D Covariance Tracing for Efficient Defocus and Motion Blur
(2012-11-16)
The rendering of effects such as motion blur and depth-of-field requires costly 5D integrals. We dramatically accelerate their computation through adaptive sampling and reconstruction based on the prediction of the anisotropy ...
Monitoring the Execution of Temporal Plans for Robotic Systems
(2012-10-04)
To achieve robustness in dynamic and uncertain environments, robotic systems must monitor the progress of their plans during execution. This thesis develops a plan executive called Pike that is capable of executing and ...
