Character Region Awareness for Text Detection [PDF]
Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2019 Scene text detection methods based on neural networks have emerged recently and have shown promising results. Previous methods trained with rigid word-level bounding boxes exhibit limitations in representing the text region in an arbitrary shape. In this

Municipal amalgamations and local housing prices
REGION, 2022 In this paper, we examine the relationship between housing prices and municipal amalgamations. Due to consumer preference for access over amenity value, there is a spatial disparity of housing prices, reflecting the value of land in specific locations ...

Regional Growth and Regional Decline [PDF]
, 2014 Since the early 1990s, there has been a renaissance in the study of regional growth, spurred by new models, methods, and data. We survey a range of modeling traditions, and some formal approaches to the hard problem of regional economics; namely, the joint consideration of agglomeration and growth. We also review empirical methods and findings based on

Assessing press releases as a data source for spatial research
REGION, 2022 Describing the distribution and development of socio-economic activities in space is frequently limited due to data availability, as official statistical data sources are often restricted to specific topics and geographical scales. Consequently, new and

Global contrast based salient region detection
Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2011 Reliable estimation of visual saliency allows appropriate processing of images without prior knowledge of their contents, and thus remains an important step in many computer vision tasks including image segmentation, object recognition, and adaptive ...

Region Attention Networks for Pose and Occlusion Robust Facial Expression Recognition [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2019 Occlusion and pose variations, which can change facial appearance significantly, are two major obstacles for automatic Facial Expression Recognition (FER). Though automatic FER has made substantial progresses in the past few decades, occlusion-robust and

Regional Science in a time of uncertainty
REGION, 2016 I have given this paper the title ‘Regional Science in a time of uncertainty’ because that is what it appears to be, very much a time of uncertainty. Uncertainty is always with us, but what I mean is the future is more uncertain than usual.
