High Rise Building: The Mega Sculpture Made Of Steel, Concrete and Glass
PublikacjaHigh rise building has transformed from providing not only the expansion of floor space but functioning as mega sculpture in the city. The shift away from economic efficiency driven need is only expected to grow in the future. Based on literature studies; after analysing planning documents and case studies, it was examined whether the presumption that gaining the maximum amount of usable area is the only driving factor; or if the...

Paintings
PublikacjaThe painting as a curtain (...) A contradiction is therefore what constitutes a painting, and ambiguity is its right. As a young artist, I intuitively defined the work of art as a boundary. Over the years that intuition changed into a conviction that the particular form of art which is painting at the same time reveals and hides; it exists at this intersection of functions as a see-through curtain. We don’t know why there are some...

Ensembling noisy segmentation masks of blurred sperm images
PublikacjaBackground: Sperm tail morphology and motility have been demonstrated to be important factors in determining sperm quality for in vitro fertilization. However, many existing computer-aided sperm analysis systems leave the sperm tail out of the analysis, as detecting a few tail pixels is challenging. Moreover, some publicly available datasets for classifying morphological defects contain images limited only to the sperm head. This...

The function of the sculpture in public space and its reception occupants of the city
PublikacjaSculpture has been with people for thousands of years. Its destiny, subject and scale have changed over the centuries. Public art, along with sculpture, began to appear in a new form (not only to commemorate important figures and events) only in the 1960s. This paper aims to answer what functions are currently performed by the sculptures located in a public space and how they are perceived by the inhabitants of the city.

Nodal cooperation equilibrium analysis in multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks with a reputation system
PublikacjaMotivated by the concerns of cooperation security, this work examines selected principles of state-of-the-art reputation systems for multi-hop ad hoc networks and their impact upon optimal strategies for rational nodes. An analytic framework is proposed and used for identification of effective cooperation-enforcement schemes. It is pointed out that optimum rather than high reputation can be expected to be sought by rational nodes.
