Title: The Application of Microsimulation to Risk Modelling
Speaker: Mr Daniel Keep
Day: Wednesday 28/10/2009
Location: Building 3. Common Staff Room
Time: 11.30-12.30
Abstract: People naturally fear what they don't understand and nothing is more mysterious than the future. It is no wonder, then, that so much time and effort is expended in attempting to model it. For nearly three years, I have been working with Dr. Ian Piper and other researchers from UNSW to develop a simulations based on microsimulation for the modelling of risk. In my talk, I will cover the work we have already done in modelling epidemics and terrorist activities, the technology used to build these models and work planned for the future.

Title: The Application of Microsimulation to Risk Modelling
Speaker: Mr Duc Thanh Nguyen
Day: Wednesday 4/11/2009
Location: Building 3. Common Staff Room
Time: 11.30-12.30
Abstract: Abstract: Human detection from still images and videos is a crucial step of human motion analysis that currently receives much attention in computer vision area. This presentation is to provide a comprehensive review on recent developments of human detection and then present a detection method employing local contour-appearance features. Experimental results and comparison with other state-of-the-art human detection methods will be presented. Finally, trends and future directions will be indicated and discussed by way of posing some of the remaining key problems.
