"Clark Board Elects Simon As Chairman", November 26, 1968
No full textNewspaper article discussing the election of Edward L. Simon to Clark College's Board of Trustees as its chairman. Simon was the general auditor of Atlanta Life Insurance Company and was a Clark College alumnus. Four new members were also appointed to the board: Vernon Jordan, J. C. Daugherty, Major Jones, and Charles Kindelberger. Jordan was the director of Voter Education for the Southern Regional Council, Daugherty was a member of the Georgia legislature, Jones was the president of Gammon Theological Seminary, and Kindelberger was a professor of economics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 2 pages
Distributed fusion of PHD filters via exponential mixture densities
No full textIn this paper, we consider the problem of Distributed Multi-sensor Multi-target Tracking (DMMT) for networked fusion systems. Many existing approaches for DMMT use multiple hypothesis tracking and track-to-track fusion. However, there are two difficulties with these approaches. First, the computational costs of these algorithms can scale factorially with the number of hypotheses. Second, consistent optimal fusion, which does not double count information, can only be guaranteed for highly constrained network architectures which largely undermine the benefits of distributed fusion. In this paper, we develop a consistent approach for DMMT by combining a generalized version of Covariance Intersection, based on Exponential Mixture Densities (EMDs), with Random Finite Sets (RFS). We first derive explicit formulae for the use of EMDs with RFSs. From this, we develop expressions for the probability hypothesis density filters. This approach supports DMMT in arbitrary network topologies through local communications and computations. We implement this approach using Sequential Monte Carlo techniques and demonstrate its performance in simulations

Simon Winchester, Map that changed the world
No full textreviewThe author, noted writer Simon Winchester (who graduated with a Geology degree from Oxford University), makes no secret of the fact that this text is an unabashed tribute to his hero, William Smith, a nineteenth century surveyor and canal digger whose passionate hobby was geology. In the course of Smith\u27s vocation and avocation he went on to create what became the first geologic map of the British Isles in 1815 and to become the individual who many believe to be the father of modem geology
