3D Point Capsule Networks
In this paper, we propose 3D point-capsule networks, an auto-encoder designed
to process sparse 3D point clouds while preserving spatial arrangements of the
input data. 3D capsule networks arise as a direct consequence of our novel
unified 3D auto-encoder formulation. Their dynamic routing scheme and the
peculiar 2D latent space deployed by our approach bring in improvements for
several common point cloud-related tasks, such as object classification, object
reconstruction and part segmentation as substantiated by our extensive
evaluations. Moreover, it enables new applications such as part interpolation
and replacement

Integrating Existing Software Toolkits into VO System
Virtual Observatory (VO) is a collection of interoperating data archives and
software tools. Taking advantages of the latest information technologies, it
aims to provide a data-intensively online research environment for astronomers
all around the world.
A large number of high-qualified astronomical software packages and libraries
are powerful and easy of use, and have been widely used by astronomers for many
years. Integrating those toolkits into the VO system is a necessary and
important task for the VO developers.
VO architecture greatly depends on Grid and Web services, consequently the
general VO integration route is "Java Ready - Grid Ready - VO Ready". In the
paper, we discuss the importance of VO integration for existing toolkits and
discuss the possible solutions. We introduce two efforts in the field from
China-VO project, "gImageMagick" and " Galactic abundance gradients statistical
research under grid environment". We also discuss what additional work should
be done to convert Grid service to VO service.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figures, will be published in SPIE 2004 conference
