National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Resilience, Tsukuba, Japan We analyzed strong-motion records at the ground and borehole in and around the Kanto Basin and the seafloor in the Japan Trench area from three nearby offshore earthquakes of similar magnitudes (Mw 5.8–5.9). The seafloor strong-motion records were obtained from S-net, which was established to enhance tsunami and earthquake early warnings after the 2011 great Tohoku-oki earthquake disaster. The borehole recor...

Omnimatte: Associating Objects and Their Effects in Video We pose a novel problem: automatically associating subjects in videos with ‘effects’ related to them in the scene. Given an input video (top) and rough masks of subjects of interest (middle), our method estimates an omnimatte – an alpha matte and foreground color that includes the subject itself along with all scene elements associated with it (bottom). The associated elements can be other objects attached to the subject or moving...

  Unlike most industries who have had major technological breakthroughs over the last one hundred years, the railroad industry has been stagnant in a lot of ways. Especially when it comes to track maintenance and repair; rail crews have been using the same technology –namely hydraulics and hand tools–to do the job. Although these methods have been industry-standard to this point, they come with severe negative factors working against them. From a pure production standpoint, both hydraulic ...

Richard Prebble: How to really spot the difference between a good and bad school 26 Jan, 2021 04:00 PM 5 minutes to read OPINION: I did not watch Joe Bidens inauguration. Instead I was attending the funeral for my brother Tom, professor emeritus of education. Tom had that rare quality, wisdom. I was struggling in physics. I asked my older brother for advice. "How is your lab table doing" Tom asked. In the science lab we sat four to a table. "No good" I replied. "Swap with a bo...
