IM2GPS: estimating geographic information from a single image

8th January

Google Tech Talks August 5, 2008 ABSTRACT Estimating geographic information from an image is an excellent, difficult high-level computer vision problem whose time has come. The emergence of vast amounts of geographically-calibrated image data is a great reason for computer vision to start looking globally on the scale of the entire planet! In this paper, we propose a simple algorithm for estimating a distribution over geographic locations from a single image using a purely data-driven scene matching approach. For this task, we will leverage a dataset of over 6 million GPS-tagged images from the Internet. We represent the estimated image location as a probability distribution over the Earth's surface. We quantitatively evaluate our approach in several geolocation tasks and demonstrate encouraging performance (up to 30 times better than chance). We show that geolocation estimates can provide the basis for numerous other image understanding tasks such as population density estimation, land cover estimation or urban/rural classification.

[UPDATED INFORMATION] An Open Letter to Eminem

8th January

READ for information! If you have any good beats for me to use, send them to ben[AT]boh3m3.net I'm loyal to what's true and good and if it resonates with my message I'll use it if I can. I don't know how many people will submit, so I can't make any promises. If you want to support what I'm doing, go to http://www.boh3m3.net and look for the yellow button or tell all your friends. I need your help to get the word out. I can't do this by myself! I need people to spread the word to everyone they can so we can give him no choice but to listen! I'm doing this for free and without condition to express myself and if it bores me, I'm going to drop it for something else my heart wants to follow. Confident, but no longer cocky. Look for a video within two or three hours explaining all of this. HERE on youtube, first. WOOPS! Forgot to add the damn lyrics! Sorry about the spelling errors, I was focused on the message. An Open letter to Eminem. Dear Marshall I hope this isn't gonna be too harsh but I MARCH to the TUNE Of the thoughts that you LOOM With the method you LAy and I PRAY That some DAY I can SAY "See what I did there, that's Marshall's way" he taught me to say Why I'm feeling so gay What I mean to say, is that I'm happy Cause I'm slappy With the rhythm Of my thoughts going crappy Not to be sappy But I heard what you said And I bled the wrong colors so long because my head's been nappy without a back-beat, Without the rhythm of my feet Hitting pavement, Hearing statements See where my head went? I know you do that too. Let me pay rent With my head dent The SCAR I got when I was a kid Runnin to HARD and too FAR into a TAble with a NAIL stiking out Been there, done that So maybe you know now that I've got some clout. I've got the goddamn A.D.D. Mixed with the O.C.D. And like YOu, I was FOOled and in school and at work I was dribbling drool Tryin to listen to the teacher's boring ass fucking rules See what I did there? I can't help but curse a lot at the world too Not because of you But because of their rules Because they say do this not that And if you step out of line once I've got a baseball bat That's as fat as the cat Sitting top of the pyramid like a brand new grand Poop Czar With the dick-shaped cigar In his mouth and a car That runs on dead dinoSAURS And planes that soar Over us peasants sitting in OUR cars "Hey look at that, Dean! PEASANTS!" But I need your help That's what this shit's all about Lend me a hand I wasn't ever your biggest fan Cause I didn't understand But I've been where you are and I want to be the band Playing you the tune Of the LOON that I know you are inside You might be locked up, I've got the keys in my stride. I'm not holding ransom, I just want your aid And if you won't even help me I'll still get paid maybe not laid cause I'm fat Got the dick of a gnat But I'm getting off topic Gotta learn to control that I'm going to bed with this shit in my head And a notebook I bled onto with a number two pencil I'll sit by my phone as long as I'm home Till I go to Ralphs and earn my fuckin own Working 40 hour work weeks Instead of EXPLOd-ing I'll be in the deli unLOADING deli sliced meat du-jour Upon every hapless Houre(whore) Untill I hear from ya.

Scaling Information Access to Serve Billions of the World's Poorest People

8th January

Google Tech Talks June, 3 2008 ABSTRACT Have you heard that Google wants to wire up the entire African continent? Or that broadband will be ubiqitous throughout developing countries in ten years? Or that poor kids with connected laptops will teach each other? Or that the latest fiber optics cable being installed will lower Internet costs overnight? Just like many other realms of human activity, access to information and communication is dramatically different between privileged people and the world's poor. Six out of seven people worldwide have no access to the Internet. It is important to have a realistic understanding of the manifold hurdles and constraints that face those who want to serve the bulk of humanity that is currently beyond the "World Wide" Web. The WiderNet Project, a non-profit service program in the School of Library and Information Science at the University of Iowa, mixes practical research with capacity building activities to identify best practices in deploying ICT in developing countries. Over 4,000 people have been through their practical, hands-on training programs in sub-Saharan Africa. Their volunteers have provided over 1,200 refurbished computers and $1.5 million in hardware and software donations to partners across the continent. And they have developed an off-line digital library that contains over 1,200 Web sites and CD-ROMs (over ten millions documents) for those with little or no Internet connectivity. Cliff Missen, the project director, will present information on the scale of the challenges and the three challenges of scaling technology to serve millions of people: computer face time, information access, and human capacity. Speaker: Cliff Missen Cliff has over 20 years professional experience in computers, networking, multimedia design, and applications development. At The WiderNet Project, he combines this with his long-term interest in international development. His first visit to Africa was with a medical team in 1982, and he continues to teach and promote appropriate water well drilling technology through the U.S. non--profit organization Wellspring Africa.

Pineal Gland & DMT [ Real Information ]

8th January

Short documentary movie based on the book of Rick Strassman, M.D. - DMT - The Spirit Molecule. Rick Strassman was permitted to embark on the first human research with psychedelic, hallucinogenic, or entheogenic substances in the 1990s in the United States after 20 years' intermission in the field. In the intermission period it has only been legally possible to research on animals. Strassman's studies investigated the effects of N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), a powerful entheogen, or psychedelic, that he theorizes is a substance produced by the human brain in the pineal gland (without any conclusive proof), and an active ingredient in ayahuasca. Ayahuasca is any of the various psychoactive infusions or decoctions prepared from the Banisteriopsis spp. vine, native to the Amazon Rainforest (which is also called ayahuasca). The resulting drinks are pharmacologically complex and used for shamanic, folk-medicinal, and religious purposes. Occidental ethno-biologists have noted a variety of 200-300 plants used in the different brews made by the Ayahuasceras. It is an open question whether Ayahuasca should be noted as one particular shamanic medicinal brew, or that it should be noted as an entire medicinal tradition alongside, for instance, Ayurveda or Tibetan Medicine. During the project's five years, he administered approximately 400 doses of DMT to 60 human volunteers. This research took place at the University of New Mexico's School of Medicine in Albuquerque, New Mexico where he was tenured Associate Professor of Psychiatry. Strassman has conjectured that when a person is approaching death, the pineal gland releases DMT, accounting for much of the imagery reported by survivors of near-death experiences. Strassan wrote about the research program in his book DMT: The Sprit Molecule.

The entire "Disclosure Project" is an organization that was developed by the honorable Mr. Steven M. Greer and it includes over 400 military, government, and other fields of propulsion technological development for clandestine sects of the "shadow government" which is kept hidden away from the mainstream populace for so-called national security issues.
