No full textJanuary 20, 1849 Advice of Council of Virginia regarding the claim of John M. Seely, submitted to the House of Delegates on March 6th. the Council supported the governor's position that Seely's bill was overpriced and less was owed for the painting work completed on the Capitol, governor's house, and bellhouse
Bohne-Seely Farm House P.1
No full textBohne-Seely farm house in Mt. Pleasant area. Lisa Monig--Courtesy. "Bohne-Seely farm house named to State Register of Historic Sites"- The Bohne-Seely farmhouse two miles north of Mt. Pleasant on Highway 89 was one of four sites named to the State Register of Historic Sites at the last meeting of the Governor\u27s Historic and Cultural Sites Review Committee on July 26. The home was built in 1886 four years after Henry M. Bohne homesteaded the property. Christian Olsen and a Mr. Christopherson were the stone masons. The Sanpete oolite limestone used in the construction, reportedly came from the Manti Temple quarry. In the 1890\u27s Bohne abandoned the property and went to Canada. The property was deeded to William H. Seely in 1898 and remained in the Seely family until acquired by its present owner, Orson Lauritzen of L and M Enterprises, in 1967

On a three-dimensional gait recognition system
No full textThe University of Southampton Multi-Biometric Tunnel is a high performance data-capture and recognition system; designed with airports and other busy public areas in mind. It is able to acquire a variety of non-contact biometrics in a non-intrusive manner, requiring minimal subject cooperation. The system uses twelve cameras to record gait and perform three-dimensional reconstruction; the use of volumetric data avoids the problems caused by viewpoint dependence - a serious problem for many gait analysis approaches. The early prototype by Middleton et al. was used as the basis for creating a new and improved system, designed for the collection of a new large dataset, containing gait, face and ear. Extensive modifications were made, including new software for managing the data collection experiment and processing the dataset. Rigorous procedures were implemented to protect the privacy of participants and ensure consistency between capture sessions. Collection of the new multi-biometric dataset spanned almost one year; resulting in over 200 subjects and 2000 samples.Experiments performed on the newly collected dataset resulted in excellent recognition performance, with all samples correctly classified and a 1.58% equal error rate; the matching of subjects against previous samples was also found to be reasonably accurate. The fusion of gait with a simple facial analysis technique found the addition of gait to be beneficial -- especially at a distance. Further experiments investigated the effect of static and dynamic features, camera misalignment, average silhouette resolution, camera layout, and the matching of outdoor video footage against data from the Biometric Tunnel. The results in this thesis prove significant due to the unprecedented size of the new dataset and the excellent recognition performance achieved; providing a significant body of evidence to support the argument that an individual's gait is unique.L.

View Invariant Gait Recognition
No full textRecognition by gait is of particular interest since it is the biometric that is available at the lowest resolution, or when other biometrics are (intentionally) obscured. Gait as a biometric has now shown increasing recognition capability. There are many approaches and these show that recognition can achieve excellent performance on large databases. The majority of these approaches are planar 2D, largely since the early large databases featured subjects walking in a plane normal to the camera view. To extend deployment capability, we need viewpoint invariant gait biometrics. We describe approaches where viewpoint invariance is achieved by 3D approaches or in 2D. In the first group the identification relies on parameters extracted from the 3D body deformation during walking. These methods use several video cameras and the 3D reconstruction is achieved after a camera calibration process. On the other hand, the 2D gait biometric approaches use a single camera, usually positioned perpendicular to the subject’s walking direction. Because in real surveillance scenarios a system that operates in an unconstrained environment is necessary, many of the recent gait analysis approaches are orientated towards viewinvariant gait recognition
