A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1
No full textSpectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1

Testing the randomness in the sky-distribution of gamma-ray bursts
No full textWe have studied the complete randomness of the angular distribution of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE). Because GRBs seem to be a mixture of objects of different physical nature, we divided the BATSE sample into five subsamples (short1, short2, intermediate, long1, long2) based on their durations and peak fluxes, and we studied the angular distributions separately. We used three methods, Voronoi tesselation, minimal spanning tree and multifractal spectra, to search for non-randomness in the subsamples. To investigate the eventual non-randomness in the subsamples, we defined 13 test variables (nine from the Voronoi tesselation, three from the minimal spanning tree and one from the multifractal spectrum). Assuming that the point patterns obtained from the BATSE subsamples are fully random, we made Monte Carlo simulations taking into account the BATSE's sky-exposure function. The Monte Carlo simulations enabled us to test the null hypothesis (i.e. that the angular distributions are fully random). We tested the randomness using a binomial test and by introducing squared Euclidean distances in the parameter space of the test variables. We concluded that the short1 and short2 groups deviate significantly (99.90 and 99.98 per cent, respectively) from the full randomness in the distribution of the squared Euclidean distances; however, this is not the case for the long samples. For the intermediate group, the squared Euclidean distances also give a significant deviation (98.51 per cent)
The ceremonies of Charles II's court
No full textPhDThis thesis examines the question of how the restored monarchy used the ceremonies of court in the
period 1660-1685. It is concerned with those rituals which took place regularly within the royal
palaces, that is to say the ceremonies of the Chapel Royal, of healing, of reception and audience,
dining and entertaining, and the rituals which took place within the privy apartments, including the
royal lever and coucher. The ways in which these rituals operated over the course of the reign are
considered - with close reference to their physical setting - as is their significance as expressions of
royal power.
The contention of the thesis is that the ceremonies of the Restoration court are a neglected subject
deserving of serious study, and that by examining them real insight can be gained into the changing
nature of monarchy, the personality of Charles II and the politics of his reign. The thesis argues,
contrary to traditional accounts of his reign, that Charles II took the formal exchanges of court life
very seriously, that their performance was intimately connected to the politics of the period and that
they were crucial to the way in which he projected his own majesty
Automatic Image Annotation and Object Detection
No full textWe live in the midst of the information era, during which organising and indexing information more effectively is a matter of essential importance. With the fast development of digital imagery, how to search images - a rich form of information - more efficiently by their content has become one of the biggest challenges. Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has been the traditional and dominant technique for searching images for decades. However, not until recently have researchers started to realise some vital problems existing in CBIR systems. One of the most important is perhaps what people call the semantic gap, which refers to the gap between the information that can be extracted from images and the interpretation of the images for humans. As an attempt to bridge the semantic gap, automatic image annotation has been gaining more and more attentions in recent years. This thesis aims to explore a number of different approaches to automatic image annotation and some related issues. It begins with an introduction into different techniques for image description, which forms the foundation of the research on image auto-annotation. The thesis then goes on to give an in-depth examination of some of the quality issues of the data-set used for evaluating auto-annotation systems. A series of approaches to auto-annotation are presented in the follow-up chapters. Firstly, we describe an approach that incorporates the salient based image representation into a statistical model for better annotation performance. Secondly, we explore the use of non-negative matrix factorisation (NMF), a matrix decomposition technique, for two tasks; object class detection and automatic annotation of images. The results imply that NMF is a promising sub-space technique for these purposes. Finally, we propose a model named the image based feature space (IBFS) model for linking image regions and keywords, and for image auto-annotation. Both image regions and keywords are mapped into the same space in which their relationships can be measured. The idea of multiple segmentations is then implemented in the model, and better results are achieved than using a single segmentation
