    Movies Tags Extraction Using Deep Learning

    Get PDF
    Retrieving information from movies is becoming increasingly demanding due to the enormous amount of multimedia data generated each day. Not only it helps in efficient search, archiving and classification of movies, but is also instrumental in content censorship and recommendation systems. Extracting key information from a movie and summarizing it in a few tags which best describe the movie presents a dedicated challenge and requires an intelligent approach to automatically analyze the movie. In this paper, we formulate movies tags extraction problem as a machine learning classification problem and train a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) on a carefully constructed tag vocabulary. Our proposed technique first extracts key frames from a movie and applies the trained classifier on the key frames. The predictions from the classifier are assigned scores and are filtered based on their relative strengths to generate a compact set of most relevant key tags. We performed a rigorous subjective evaluation of our proposed technique for a wide variety of movies with different experiments. The evaluation results presented in this paper demonstrate that our proposed approach can efficiently extract the key tags of a movie with a good accuracy

    Spectral properties of non-conservative multichannel SUSY partners of the zero potential

    Full text link
    Spectral properties of a coupled N×NN \times N potential model obtained with the help of a single non-conservative supersymmetric (SUSY) transformation starting from a system of NN radial Schr\"odinger equations with the zero potential and finite threshold differences between the channels are studied. The structure of the system of polynomial equations which determine the zeros of the Jost-matrix determinant is analyzed. In particular, we show that the Jost-matrix determinant has N2N1N2^{N-1} zeros which may all correspond to virtual states. The number of bound states satisfies 0nbN0\leq n_b\leq N. The maximal number of resonances is nr=(N1)2N2n_r=(N-1)2^{N-2}. A perturbation technique for a small coupling approximation is developed. A detailed study of the inverse spectral problem is given for the 2×22\times 2 case.Comment: 17 pages, 4 figure

    Darboux transformations for quasi-exactly solvable Hamiltonians

    Full text link
    We construct new quasi-exactly solvable one-dimensional potentials through Darboux transformations. Three directions are investigated: Reducible and two types of irreducible second-order transformations. The irreducible transformations of the first type give singular intermediate potentials and the ones of the second type give complex-valued intermediate potentials while final potentials are meaningful in all cases. These developments are illustrated on the so-called radial sextic oscillator.Comment: 11 pages, Late

    Eigenphase preserving two-channel SUSY transformations

    Full text link
    We propose a new kind of supersymmetric (SUSY) transformation in the case of the two-channel scattering problem with equal thresholds, for partial waves of the same parity. This two-fold transformation is based on two imaginary factorization energies with opposite signs and with mutually conjugated factorization solutions. We call it an eigenphase preserving SUSY transformation as it relates two Hamiltonians, the scattering matrices of which have identical eigenphase shifts. In contrast to known phase-equivalent transformations, the mixing parameter is modified by the eigenphase preserving transformation.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figur

    Clarification of the relationship between bound and scattering states in quantum mechanics: Application to 12C + alpha

    Full text link
    Using phase-equivalent supersymmetric partner potentials, a general result from the inverse problem in quantum scattering theory is illustrated, i.e., that bound-state properties cannot be extracted from the phase shifts of a single partial wave, as a matter of principle. In particular, recent R-matrix analyses of the 12C + alpha system, extracting the asymptotic normalization constant of the 2+ subthreshold state, C12, from the l=2 elastic-scattering phase shifts and bound-state energy, are shown to be unreliable. In contrast, this important constant in nuclear astrophysics can be deduced from the simultaneous analysis of the l=0, 2, 4, 6 partial waves in a simplified potential model. A new supersymmetric inversion potential and existing models give C12=144500+-8500 fm-1/2.Comment: Expanded version (50% larger); three errors corrected (conversion of published reduced widths to ANCs); nine references added, one remove

    Influence of low energy scattering on loosely bound states

    Full text link
    Compact algebraic equations are derived, which connect the binding energy and the asymptotic normalization constant (ANC) of a subthreshold bound state with the effective-range expansion of the corresponding partial wave. These relations are established for positively-charged and neutral particles, using the analytic continuation of the scattering (S) matrix in the complex wave-number plane. Their accuracy is checked on simple local potential models for the 16O+n, 16O+p and 12C+alpha nuclear systems, with exotic nuclei and nuclear astrophysics applications in mind

    Many-body approach to proton emission and the role of spectroscopic factors

    Get PDF
    The process of proton emission from nuclei is studied by utilizing the two-potential approach of Gurvitz and Kalbermann in the context of the full many-body problem. A time-dependent approach is used for calculating the decay width. Starting from an initial many-body quasi-stationary state, we employ the Feshbach projection operator approach and reduce the formalism to an effective one-body problem. We show that the decay width can be expressed in terms of a one-body matrix element multiplied by a normalization factor. We demonstrate that the traditional interpretation of this normalization as the square root of a spectroscopic factor is only valid for one particular choice of projection operator. This causes no problem for the calculation of the decay width in a consistent microscopic approach, but it leads to ambiguities in the interpretation of experimental results. In particular, spectroscopic factors extracted from a comparison of the measured decay width with a calculated single-particle width may be affected.Comment: 17 pages, Revte

    Multi-channel phase-equivalent transformation and supersymmetry

    Get PDF
    Phase-equivalent transformation of local interaction is generalized to the multi-channel case. Generally, the transformation does not change the number of the bound states in the system and their energies. However, with a special choice of the parameters, the transformation removes one of the bound states and is equivalent to the multi-channel supersymmetry transformation recently suggested by Sparenberg and Baye. Using the transformation, it is also possible to add a bound state to the discrete spectrum of the system at a given energy E<0E<0 if the angular momentum at least in one of the coupled channels l2l\ge 2.Comment: 9 pages, revtex; to be published in Phys.
