    Huang Zunxian, Qing China’s Pioneer Modernist Poet

    No full text
    Qing China's Diplomat Poet Huang Zunxian (Huang Tsun-hsien, 1848-1905) has the distinction of being Qing China's last great classical poet but is less well known as China's first modernist poet. A diplomat of strongly reformist bent, Huang served in the consulates of Japan, the United States, Great Britain and Singapore. His poetry is rich in allusions to three thousand years of Chinese literature yet also includes detail about the foreign societies he encountered and the scientific and technological transformations that were changing the world at such an astonishing rate. His postings in Meiji Tokyo, San Francisco's Chinatown, and fin-de-siècle, London provided material for poems which treat encounters with Japanese dress reform, American racism, and British Royalty. An ascent up the Eiffel Tower in an electric elevator affords an opportunity to muse upon pre-WW1 Europe's armaments build up. Huang's poetry represents the resolute engagement of a classical poet uniquely placed to respond to conditions of contemporary global modernity. His defence of Chinatown coolies inform an indignant response to U. S. Exclusion Laws while his London poems provide us with the fascinating and hitherto unexplored Chinese counterpoint to indigenous artistic responses among Anglo-American modernists, themselves undergoing radical formal experimentation by looking East

    Analyse des signaux multicomposante à modulation de fréquence linéaire par la transformation de Teager-Huang-Hough

    No full text
    A novel detection approach of linear FM (LFM) signals, with single or multiple components, in the time-frequency plane of Teager-Huang (TH) transform is presented. The detection scheme that combines TH transform and Hough transform is referred to as Teager-Huang-Hough (THH) transform. The input signal is mapped into the time-frequency plane by using TH transform followed by the application of Hough transform to recognize time-frequency components. LFM components are detected and their parameters are estimated from peaks and their locations in the Hough space. Advantages of THH transform over Hough transform of Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) are: 1) cross-terms free detection and estimation, and 2) good time and frequency resolutions. No assumptions are made about the number of components of the LFM signals and their models. THH transform is illustrated on multicomponent LFM signals in free and noisy environments and the results compared with WVD-Hough and pseudo-WVD-Hough transforms

Sichuan province: 1 ♀ (CHH, dissected), Liangshan Yi Autonomous Region, Muli County, Liziping, 2700m, 5.V. 2014, X.-D. Yang leg.. Remarks. The female holotype was collected from Yulongxueshan whilst the male paratypes were collected from Ludian, thus the association of male and female requires a confirmation from more material. In a recent expedition made by the first author, specimens of both sexes were collected from both localities. An examination of male and female genitalia proved the original association of male and female to be correct. Distribution.

    Automatic Gait Recognition

    No full text
    Gait is an emergent biometric aimed essentially to recognise people by the way they walk. Gait's advantages are that it is non-invasive, like automatic face recognition, and that it is less likely to be obscured than other biometrics. Gait has allied subjects including medical studies, psychology, human body modelling and motion tracking. These lend support to the view that gait has clear potential as a biometric. Essentially, we require to use computer vision techniques to derive a gait signature from a sequence of images. The majority of current approaches analyse an image sequence to derive motion characteristics which are then used for recognition; only one approach is feature based. Early results by these studies confirm that there is a rich potential in gait for recognition

    Barsine paraprominens Huang & Wang, 2018 (Figs 42, 168, 169) Barsine paraprominens Huang & Wang, 2018, Zootaxa, 4457 (1):190, figs 1, 2, 6, 7 (Type locality: “Pailong Village, Linzhi County, Linzhi Division, Xizang Autonomous Region, P. R. China ”). Material examined. Holotype (Figs 42, 168): ♂, “ 2130 m, 30. VII. 2017, Pailong Village, Linzhi County, Linzhi Division, Xizang Autonomous Region, P. R. China, leg. Si-yao Huang, Shu-qin Ji, Fu-hong Wei and Shi-fang Mo” (SCAU); paratype: ♂, same data as in the holotype (SCAU). Diagnosis. Forewing length is 12.5–14 mm in males. This species is most similar externally to B. wernerthomasi due to its rather large size, but can be easily distinguished by its medial line being connected to the antemedial line and the antemedial line being evenly curved and continuous (while that is angled in the cell and interrupted in B. wernerthomasi). The male genitalia of B. paraprominens differ from those of B. wernerthomasi by the thicker tip of the distal saccular process, and the presence of a broad cluster of cornuti in the distal diverticulum of vesica (that has robust granulation in B. paraprominens). Female is unknown. Distribution. China (SE Xizang) (Huang et al. 2018).Published as part of Volynkin, Anton V., Černý, Karel & Huang, Si-Yao, 2019, A review of the Barsine hypoprepioides (Walker, 1862) species-group, with descriptions of fifteen new species and a new subspecies (Lepidoptera, Erebidae, Arctiinae), pp. 1-82 in Zootaxa 4618 (1) on page 15, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4618.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/324820
