Identifying the confidence level of activity recognition via HMM by Chang-hai WANG, Jian-zhong ZHANG, Jing-dong XU, Yu-wei XU

“…A context-based method to identify the confidence level of activ recognition was proposed,referred to as S-HMM(sliding window hidden Markov model),which reduced the confusion rate and facilitated the transfer learning.With S-HMM,the activity recognition sequence was modeled as HMM(hidden Markov model)and the corresponding probability was adopted as the confidence level.This ,S-HMM removed the dependency of the confidence level on the sample distribution in the feature space.S-HMM is extensively evaluated based on real-life activity data,demonstrat-ing a reduced confusion rate of 37% when compared to the state-of-the-art methods.…”

Abernathy, Matthew D. Fountain, Kali Hankerd, Christopher K. Yunker, Joseph T. Rakowski, Eric Quemeneur

“…To investigate whether tumor irradiation augments the immune response to MUC1 tumor antigen, we have tested the efficacy of tumor irradiation combined with an MVA-MUC1-IL2 cancer vaccine (Transgene TG4010) for murine renal adenocarcinoma (Renca) cells transfected with MUC1.Methods Established subcutaneous Renca-MUC1 tumors were treated with 8 Gy radiation on day 11 and peritumoral injections of MVA-MUC1-IL2 vector on day 12 and 17, or using a reverse sequence of vaccine followed by radiation. Growth delays were monitored by tumor measurements and histological responses were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. …”
