[EN]The human face provides useful information during interaction; therefore, any system integrating Vision- BasedHuman Computer Interaction requires fast and reliable face and facial feature detection. Different approaches have focused on this ability but only open source implementations have been extensively used by researchers. A good example is the Viola–Jones object detection framework that particularly in the context of facial processing has been frequently used.

[EN]This paper presents a study on the facial feature detection performance achieved using the Viola-Jones framework. A set of classi- ers using two di erent focuses to gather the training samples is created and tested on four di erent datasets covering a wide range of possibili- ties. The results achieved should serve researchers to choose the classi er that better ts their demands.

[EN] This paper analyzes the detection and localization performance of the participating face and eye algorithms compared with the Viola Jones detector and four leading commercial face detectors. Performance is characterized under the different conditions and parameterized by per-image brightness and contrast. In localization accuracy for eyes, the groups/companies focusing on long-range face detection outperform leading commercial applications.

Questo lavoro di tesi è frutto di uno studio sull’addizione viniloga enenantioselettiva di sistemi 3-alchilidenossindolici a nitrotrirene utilizzando un catalizzatore bifunzionale in grado di attivare la posizione gamma del suddetto ossindolo, per mezzo di una reazione acidobase, e di attivare il nitrostirene attraverso interazione via legame a idrogeno. Questo progetto nasce come novità assoluta nel mondo dell’organocatalisi.

L'obiettivo di questa tesi sperimentale è quello di effettuare una reazione di addizione coniugata di Michael di sistemi 1,3-dicarbonilici atroposelettiva su substrati maleimmidici oppurtanamente sostituiti, catalizzata da derivati di alcaloidi naturali della Cinchona. Tale processo risulta importante ed innovativo in quanto si vuole ottenere una reazione di desimmetrizzazione atroposelettiva, contemporaneamente dell'asse prochirale e dei due atomi di carbonio del doppio legame della maleimmide stessa. Partendo dalla reazione di addizione del 2-acetilciclopetanone sulla (N-(2-tert- Butil)fenil)maleimmide, mediante reazioni di screening sono state determinate le condizioni ottimali. Si è poi proceduto a verificare l'estendibilità della reazione verso differenti substrati. Infine si è verificata la stabilità dell'asse di rotazione bloccato neosintetizzato. La sintesi di tali composti è importante per la possibilità di poter successivamente derivatizzare i gruppi sostituenti, in modo da creare building blocks per lo sviluppo di molecole ben più complesse.

The work described in this thesis deals with the development of the asymmetric organocatalytic conjugate addition reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to ortho-quinone methides. Due to their instability, these synthetically appealing intermediates have not been fully exploited in catalytic asymmetric settings. In this work, the instability of ortho-quinone methides is overcome by their generation in situ under mild basic conditions, starting from the corresponding sulfonyl derivatives. The bifunctional catalysts used are able to activate both substrates for the reaction, by means of a synergic action of the two catalytic sites, inducing at the same time high enantioselection in the addition step. The reaction leads to the generation of a 2-alkylphenolic framework, featuring a chiral centre at the benzylic position. In particular, the employment of acetylacetone and Meldrum acid as nucleophiles has allowed the obtainment of 4H-chromenes and chroman-2-ones in good yields and generally excellent enantioselectivities. These compounds are synthetic precursors of several natural products, some of which showing interesting biological activity, and of some active pharmaceutical ingredients used in commercial drugs.

A minimal marginal bone loss around implants during early healing has been considered acceptable. However, the preservation of the marginal bone is related to soft tissue stability and esthetics. Implant designs and surfaces were evaluated to determine their impact on the behavior of the crestal bone. The purpose of this study is to evaluate histologic marginal bone level changes around early loaded, chemically modified, sandblasted acid-etched-surfaced implants with a machined collar (MC) or no MC (NMC).
