Trolleys, crashes, and perception-a survey on how current autonomous vehicles debates invoke problematic expectations.

Ongoing debates about ethical guidelines for autonomous vehicles mostly focus on variations of the 'Trolley Problem'. Using variations of this ethical dilemma in preference surveys, possible implications for autonomous vehicles policy are discussed. In this work, we argue that the lack of realism in such scenarios leads to limited practical insights.

Interactive video retrieval evaluation at a distance: comparing sixteen interactive video search systems in a remote setting at the 10th Video Browser Showdown.

The Video Browser Showdown addresses difficult video search challenges through an annual interactive evaluation campaign attracting research teams focusing on interactive video retrieval. The campaign aims to provide insights into the performance of participating interactive video retrieval systems, tested by selected search tasks on large video collections. For the first time in its ten year history, the Video Browser Showdown 2021 was organized in a fully remote setting and hosted a record number of sixteen scoring systems.

Interactive video search tools: a detailed analysis of the video browser showdown 2015.

Interactive video retrieval tools developed over the past few years are emerging as powerful alternatives to automatic retrieval approaches by giving the user more control as well as more responsibilities. Current research tries to identify the best combinations of image, audio and text features that combined with innovative UI design maximize the tools performance. We present the last installment of the Video Browser Showdown 2015 which was held in conjunction with the International Conference on MultiMedia Modeling 2015 (MMM 2015) and has the stated aim of pushing for a better integration of the user into the search process.

[Preventing cardiovascular diseases through a screening modelling applicable to wide population groups: results from the first phase of the project].

Objective: evaluate, through active call, lifestyles of an asymptomatic population in order to identify hyperglycaemic subjects and/or high-blood pressure sufferers to dispatch to their GP to perform suitable checking, and subjects to invite to a cardiovascular disease prevention programme because of their lifestyles.

Setting And Participants: between January 2009 and July 2012, all healthy residents in the Local Health Authority of Este (ULSS 17 Este) aged 45-59 years were invited to join a cardiovascular disease prevention programme.

Design: all participants were evaluated through an administered lifestyle questionnaire.
