Students entering Ohio’s public universities this fall are the first four-year cohort expected to graduate under the state’s new American civic literacy requirement.

Nefertiti was made famous by a remarkable painted bust of her head found in Tell-el Amarna, Egypt, in 1912.The hypothesis about hidden rooms was first proposed more than a decade ago. A key advocate of the idea, archaeologist Nicholas Reeves, mentions clues that he believes may point to Nefertiti’s burial being nearby. These include “hidden” hieroglyphics…

More Information Humanoid robots must learn to balance, move, and interact with objects across an enormous range of situations, but the data available for this training has clear limits. Internet video shows diverse behavior but cannot capture precise physical states. Laboratory motion capture systems record accurate movement but usually cover only a narrow set of actions. This white paper examines HiPHI, a 617.5-hour whole-body human motion dataset captured with optical motion capture at sub-millimeter accuracy. It includes 245.7 hours of human-object interaction with synchronized object trajectories and meshes, and organizes coverage using FrameNet, a linguistic framework for human action. The…
