Further results of recursive evaluation for compound distribution with the severity distribution of mixed type

Yang et al. [J.P. Yang, S.H. Cheng, Q. Wu, Recursive equations for compound distribution with the severity distribution of the mixed type, Science in China Series A 48 (2005) 594-609] investigated a recursive procedure for a kind of compound distributions with the number of claims belonging to (a,b)-family and the severity distribution of the mixed type. In this paper, we extend their results by assuming that the claim number belongs to a larger class. As applications, the excess-of-loss reinsurance treaty is discussed and concrete examples are considered in some detail.     

Activity recognition and intensity estimation in youth from accelerometer data aided by machine learning

Physical activity monitoring for youth is an area of increasing scientific and public health interest due to the high prevalence of obesity and downward trend in physical activity. However, accurate assessment of such activity remains a challenging problem because of the complex nature in which certain activities are performed. In this study, we formulated the issue as a machine learning problem—using a diverse set of 19 physical activities commonly performed by youth—via two approaches: activity recognition and intensity estimation. With the aid of training data, we implemented a distance metric learning method called DML-KNN that utilizes time-frequency features and is capable of effectively classifying both continuous and intermittent movement in youth subjects. Four different time-frequency feature extraction methods were then systematically evaluated. Our results show that the DML-KNN method performed competitively, especially when using features extracted by the Tamura method for intensity estimation, and by the Square Coefficient method for activity recognition.     

Online learning of dynamic multi-view gallery for person Re-identification

Person re-identification receives increasing attentions in computer vision due to its potential applications in video surveillance. In order to alleviate wrong matches caused by misalignment or missing features among cameras, we propose to learn a multi-view gallery of frequently appearing objects in a relatively closed environment. The gallery contains appearance models of these objects from different cameras and viewpoints. The strength of the learned appearance models lies in that they are invariant to viewpoint and illumination changes. To automatically estimate the number of frequently appearing objects in the environment and update their appearance models online, we propose a dynamic gallery learning algorithm. We specifically build up two datasets to validate the effectiveness of our approach in realistic scenarios. Comparisons with benchmark methods demonstrate promising performance in accuracy and efficiency of re-identification.
