They address this in the paper, but from the opposite angle (ho):
It should be noted that our dipping scheme assumes that the
object has no vertical _caps_ in any orientation. A cap is a vertical
cavity that forms a vessel, in which water can be accumulated if
the object is elevated vertically and air can be trapped, generating
air pockets when the object is dipped in the opposite orientation.
Most caps, if they exist, would be small and would have a minor
effect akin to noise on the dip transform. Nevertheless, caps can be
detected by dipping and then lifting back the object with the liquid
trapped in the cap, yielding two different water levels. Flipping the
object vertically allows detecting air pockets as they become caps.

- falsedan 9y agoThanks, I forget that quoted text is horrible on HN on mobile.
- mkl 9y agoYou're not quoting text, you're formatting it as code. Just put "> " instead of indenting.
- tripzilch 9y agoaren't there some pretty basic CSS rules to even make the formatted code look better on a narrow screen mobile? something like `white-space: pre-wrap`, IIRC? maybe I should look into how to add custom CSS rules to a particular site (HN), can you do that native in firefox, or does it need a plugin?
