The script below should be run for all 6 training areas of interest (AOIs): AOI_2_Vegas, AOI_3_Paris, AOI_4_Shanghai, AOI_5_Khartoum, AOI_7_Moscow, AOI_8_Mumbai. In this example, we rescale the image to the 2nd and 98th percentile of pixel values when converting to 8-bit. This is accomplished via the create_8bit_images.py script. While we lose a significant amount of information by utilizing only a subset of the multispectral bands, for ease of exploration we extract the 8-bit RGB imagery from the 16-bit multispectral imagery, where RGB corresponds to bands 5, 3, 2, respectively. The pan-sharpened 8-band multispectral images (PS-MS) are prepared the same for both challenges, so we will utilize this data for training and testing. In SpaceNet 5 the RGB 3-band pan-sharpened imagery utilized the Maxar DRA (Dynamic Range Adjusted) product which seeks to equalize color scales, and yields an 8-bit image. The RGB 3-band pan-sharpened imagery (PS-RGB) for SpaceNet 3 was distributed in the native 16-bit data format. SpaceNet 3 and SpaceNet 5 data formats are slightly different, due to extra post-processing performed on the SpaceNet 5 imagery. Attach docker container: docker attach cresi_container 3.

In support of this rather complex challenge, this post walks readers through the steps necessary to prepare the data for the first step in our baseline: creating training masks for a deep learning segmentation model. There is still plenty of time to get involved with the SpaceNet 5 Challenge that seeks to determine route travel times along roadways directly from satellite imagery.

These were decided very early on, even before the script as you know it had been conceived. How do you come up with the names of the characters?Ī. Hopefully it will be an interesting read! ![]() Here is our latest update with a Q&A format featuring some of your most popular questions. Know about the "incomplete" segment: it's a early access game what did your expect? Developers are doing this to release chapters to get feedback. At least this game tried to combine the RPG turn based gameplay, the arcade styled top down shooter and adult visual novel style into this hybrid, I'll give the developers props for trying something new when other adult games can't (not really their fault to be honest.).Īnd the second thing it got ♥♥♥♥ for is the "story" and how its "incomplete", the developers said this themselves that the story is a parody, if I think about it, I find this stupid to complain that a PORN game has bad story, like come on have you ever seen any videos from any porn site that had a good story? Pretty much any adult game might have a generic or mediocre story, but at least there not bad and that includes Subverse, I genuinely find it okay, because it doesn't take it seriously. ![]() Know let's talk about the "Criticism" and my counter arguments:There are a few reasons it got way to much ♥♥♥♥, one was because It had "boring/bad" gameplay: I don't how to say this lightly, but most if many adult games are just visual novels or text scroll games. ![]() Replayability is here in the form of score attacks once you complete each pitch. Fans of this trademark no longer have to worry after the bland time that was Hours of Darkness. Speaking of which there are plenty of callbacks and references to the series proper. Just like when an RPG magically appeared in a poof of smoke to take down a Blood Dragon. The DLC will also keep you on your toes at some sections due to Guy and a few producers making up the story and surroundings as they go. There were never enough of these and Dead Living Zombies will make sure to remind you every minute. Other set pieces are exaggerated to a ridiculous degree with one prime example being explosions. Which includes decent comedy between Guy Marvel and whomever he engages with. There are a collection of zombified beings that will appear, including a zombie bigfoot, but the first two zombies I mentioned will be the ones you interact with the most.Īs I loosely touched upon there are commentaries and satires to chuckle at. There are ones that will swarm you and act like typical zombies, hot heads have glowing spots in their cranium that serves as an explosive weak point, and ones that will throw goo at you and explode once defeated. The zombies themselves aren’t too diverse either. ![]() While this isn’t a terrible problem or a new one, it’s just something I noticed easily. Some parts are even recycled and reused assets from the base game. The handful of levels or script ideas you have to complete are pretty straightforward, linear and don’t offer a terrible amount of variety. In this regard the zombie killing is quite fun for the ninety or so minutes it lasts for. Gameplay is the standard Far Cry formula and all the mechanics return. Occasionally the person he’s obsessively pitching these to will provide their own commentary while you play. Guy’s glee and naivety will take you through each of his scripts as isolated levels with no interconnecting story. Some are even a satirical or teasing take on famous staples and pop culture. You know the one filming a movie and asking the Deputy to act as a star? Either way this dude is going around to various movie makers and producers while pitching scripts of his that involve strictly zombies. You may even remember him as the obnoxious director in a few side missions to the campaign. Dead Living Zombies falls somewhere between Hours of Darkness and Lost on Mars in terms of greatness and barely made me happy I purchased the aforementioned season pass.ĭead Living Zombies tells the pathetic tale of Guy Marvel before the events of the main game. Far Cry 5’s mechanics definitely work well with the living dead, but the total package here never really amounts to anything you can’t find on a great map made in Far Cry Arcade. Having defeated all the “pitches” I can say the experience is fun but pointless. It’s a tired and clichéd genre and only Ubisoft’s wit and satire would make or break Dead Living Zombies. As one who’s purchased all of this in advance, I wasn’t expecting much with the final drop involving zombies. The conclusion to Far Cry 5’s season pass comes to a point where one great and one horrible DLC have launched. ![]() Type hints help you build and maintain a cleaner architecture. With the type annotation, P圜harm knows that text is a string, and can give specific suggestions based on this: This in turn allows IDEs to offer better code completion and similar features. They make it much easier to statically reason about your code. This works, but as there is no standard for docstrings (despite PEP 257 they can’t be easily used for automatic checks. Traditionally, you would use docstrings if you wanted to document the expected types of a function’s arguments. You also saw an example of one of the advantages of adding types to your code: type hints help catch certain errors. The previous section gave you a little taste of what type checking in Python looks like. Instead you check for the presence of a given method or attribute.Īs an example, you can call len() on any Python object that defines a. Using duck typing you do not check types at all. This moniker comes from the phrase “if it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, then it must be a duck” (or any of its variations).ĭuck typing is a concept related to dynamic typing, where the type or the class of an object is less important than the methods it defines. ![]() Duck TypingĪnother term that is often used when talking about Python is duck typing. There are other tools, which you’ll see later, that perform static type checking using type hints. As the name says, type hints just suggest types. Unlike how types work in most other statically typed languages, type hints by themselves don’t cause Python to enforce types. However, PEP 484 introduced type hints, which make it possible to also do static type checking of Python code. Python will always remain a dynamically typed language. For instance, if you were to later say thing = 28.1f the compiler would raise an error because of incompatible types. It can never be assigned a value that is not a String object. In the second line, thing is assigned a value. The name can never be rebound to another type. The first line declares that the variable name thing is bound to the String type at compile time. The two sections Hello Types and Pros and Cons will give you a taste of how type checking works and recommendations about when it’ll be useful. If you want to just get a quick glimpse of how type hints work in Python, and see whether type checking is something you would include in your code, you don’t need to read all of it. This is a comprehensive guide that will cover a lot of ground. Adding static types to code, both your code and the code of others.In this tutorial, you’ll learn about the following: ![]() Recent versions of Python allow you to specify explicit type hints that can be used by different tools to help you develop your code more efficiently. Traditionally, types have been handled by the Python interpreter in a flexible but implicit way. In this guide, you will get a look into Python type checking.

If meningitis is diagnosed, treatment consists of antibiotics and sometimes antiviral drugs. The fluid is analyzed for the presence of pathogens in a medical lab. Meningitis is diagnosed with a lumbar puncture (commonly known as a "spinal tap"), in which a needle is inserted into the spinal canal to collect a sample of cerebrospinal fluid. Young children often exhibit less specific symptoms, such as irritability, drowsiness, or poor feeding. ![]() Other symptoms may include confusion or altered consciousness, vomiting, and an inability to tolerate light or loud noises. Common symptoms include fever, headache, and neck stiffness. Learning the symptoms of meningitis may help you or a loved one get prompt medical attention if you ever develop the disease. Meningitis can also rapidly become life-threatening, so it is classified as a medical emergency. Meningitis can lead to serious long-term consequences such as deafness, epilepsy, or cognitive deficits, especially if not treated quickly. The meninges membranes that protect the brain and spinal cord inside their cavities may become inflamed, generally due to a bacterial or viral infection. The abdominal cavity holds digestive organs and the kidneys, and the pelvic cavity holds reproductive organs and organs of excretion. The abdominopelvic cavity fills the lower half of the trunk and is subdivided into the abdominal cavity and the pelvic cavity. ![]() The pleural cavities hold the lungs, and the pericardial cavity holds the heart. ![]() The thoracic cavity fills the chest and is subdivided into two pleural cavities and the pericardial cavity.The ventral cavity is subdivided into the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities. \): Some of the major organs such as the spleen, stomach, pancreas, gallbladder, liver, lungs, and heart inside the ventral cavity of the human body Nowadays, Fastpasses can be booked months in advance depending on your ticket or vacation package. Attractions such as Avatar: Flight of Passage, Na’vi River Journey, Soarin’, and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train have their Fastpasses gone almost the moment they become available. Just imagine, if there were no Fastpass, queues would constantly move (relatively speaking), and wait times would likely be cut in half.Īlmost every attraction uses Fastpass, and many people, unfortunately, get excluded from this benefit. This interruption of the standby line increases your wait time immensely. However, when Fastpass is in an attraction, the standby queue is stopped several times to have the Fastpass line guests enter into the next queue location. Parks have indeed become increasingly crowded over the last two decades, which plays some role. Since 1999 and the start of Fastpass, wait times have increased considerably. Many people wonder why the standby queues at several popular attractions can have wait times over two hours or more. Thinking back years ago, I do not remember Cast Members using flashlights to direct guest traffic from land to land in the Magic Kingdom, but I guess the times have changed. So-called off-seasons are no longer a thing, and the theme parks (especially Magic Kingdom) pack guests in like sardines. The parks are more popular than they have ever been. Even queue-friendly attractions like the Peoplemover and Journey Into Imagination With Figment started to have longer than expected wait times. ![]() Speaking of lines, will Disney’s Fastpass return when we reach some sense of normalcy? Happily Ever After Fireworksīefore the pandemic, attractions at all four Walt Disney World theme parks always had long waits. Everyone is wearing masks, mobile food ordering is the new rule, there are no fireworks in the skies, and lines for many attractions sometimes extend to other park sections. Are the lines really that long or is it your imagination, hmm? Since the reopening of Walt Disney World in July 2020, things look different at the theme parks and resorts. ![]() He'll have to figure out for himself what it really means to be a man.

The next thing you want to get in the habit of doing is checking if the file exists and asking permission before overwriting it. I would suggest an organization like this: The first step to avoiding data loss is to back it up in a separate place (on a different machine), and to keep your source data in a different folder from your output files. You must therefore be very careful and considerate when writing files. The most important thing for the novice programmer to understand is that if you write a file to a path that already exists, it will be overwritten, as in ERASED WITHOUT WARNING, AND WITH NO "UNDO" AVAILABLE. If (lastThree$ = "wav") or (lastThree$ = "WAV") We'll talk more about string functions like right$ more in a later chapter. WAV, if this is a requirement for my script to work correctly. ![]() If we're really going for quality, I would go a step further in the previous example and also check that the file ends in. ![]() wav file"ĮxitScript: "No wav file chosen, quitting" We still have to use an appropriate "open" command. Note that it just gives us a file path, it doesn't open it for us. Again, the dollar sign at the end of its name should indicate that it will return a string, representing the path to the desired file. Our scripts up until this point have not used a GUI.īut Praat does give us the option to use a GUI file picker for our scripts with the "chooseReadFile$" command. For example, on a Mac, you can double-click an app to open it (the GUI way), or you can open a console and type "open /Applications/Firefox.app". When you deal with the command line (aka the terminal / console / command prompt), you're interacting with the computer via some type of text entry method. It stands for Graphical User Interface, and refers to the windowed point and click environment we're all used to. Have we talked about what a GUI is yet? Well, it's a good term to know. What's the value of Column 1 row 2? How many rows are there? etc.) Open files via GUI: Allow the user to pick the file Otherwise, the commands in the "Open" menu are much more useful: They will create an object (like a Table object, or a Strings object), and Praat has a bunch of commands we can use to query and modify that information (i.e. If you just want to copy the text from a file "wholesale", then "readFile$" is a good thing to know about. That means that you'll have to manually chop up the file how you wish, which is not a whole lot of fun and not a good use of your time. Unless I'm mistaken, the "readFile" or "readFile$" commands will read in a text file, and leave the parsing to you. The chapter on files in the Praat Scripting Tutorial is one that I think is actually a bit lacking. Well I could keep a tab-separated spreadsheet of specific settings for those people, and use those values in the script. Let's say while marking up a file in a TextGrid, I found that I had to adjust the formant settings for different people. Also check out the commands for reading in spreadsheets, they are VERY useful. We should now have "Sound be" open and selected, and 'sound1' should contain a reference to its object number. Wd$ = homeDirectory$ + "/Documents/praatTutorial/sampleData/" (If you don't have the accompanying files, go to the Download page from the menu above) Build up your path in a smart way, and read in a sound file with the Read from file command. Let's keep working with the files in the folder praatTutorial/sampleData/. As far as I can tell all of these commands can be used in Praat scripts, taking a path as an argument. Make sure the object window is showing, and click the Open menu on the top bar. ![]() This means that typically when you read a file, you aren't changing it in any way, until you "write" (though in other programming languages you have to make sure to close the file or bad things can happen, Praat does this for us). When you "read" a file, you open it and copy its contents into memory. In a matter of seconds a spreadsheet with thousands of lines could be regenerated. Forgot to do something? Edit a line and run the script again. I had a bunch of folders full of wav files and TextGrids that I had carefully marked up, and I was happy that I could make a script to get and format the numbers for me. Are you excited? Call me what you will, but I was when I finally got my scripts opening files. ![]() The Yardzen team got to work reimagining this Berkeley backyard, taking into account all of Chris and Heather’s priorities.
