Reconsidering Neorealism: Bergsonism and Phenomenology
Full text linkIs it possible that the theories of André Bazin and of Gilles Deleuze is connected in neorealist cinema? With
no hesitation Bazin admitted that “neorealism is phenomenology,'' but he also asserted that Umberto D. (1952)
is a film of “duration”. In Bazin's theory on neorealism, phenomenology and Bergson's philosophy are not
opposed, but rather resonate as two poles. On the other hand, relying on Bergson's philosophy and Peirce's
semiotics, Deleuze distinguished movement images from temporal images in his attempt to classify images, and
considered neorealism to be a representative of temporal images.
In the process of analyzing perceptual images which movement image includes, he contrasted Bergson's
philosophy with phenomenology, and rejected the latter method because it gives certain privileges to “natural
perception”. From the point of iconographic study in Neorealism: Italian Postwar and Cinema (2022), Atsushi
Okada claimed that Bazin and Deleuze share the idea of medium-specificity by American art critic Clement
Greenberg. Examine how Their different positions of philosophies can be linked.departmental bulletin pape

Sign language recognition in videos using Vision Transformer
Full text linkThis study aims to build a recognition system for sign language video images using Vision Transformer to support communication for the hearing impaired. In the experiments, the system learned images of signs including actions and static signs and verified the accuracy. 82% accuracy was obtained in a 10-class experiment, suggesting the influence of insufficient data sets and model settings. Future work is needed to increase the amount of data and improve discrimination accuracy, as well as to investigate methods for discriminating subtle differences between signs that are similar in form and motion.departmental bulletin pape
