Your restaurant scenario is a bit too straightforward a test. Introduce any amount of hidden information, one character knowing something that another character does not, and you'll see how it very much does not simulate different poin

Lots of ways to make it fail. Not to be rude but you're late to the party. Transit questions is my favorite. Ask it what stations lines 1 and 2 have in common (city of your choice). Nearly 100% of the time there's at least one wro

It does because the motion of the other objects is embedded in their position over the previous few frames. On the contrary, it is precisely filtering on moving objects such that the velocity vector is directly on a collision path with the

A fairly straight forward algorithm I thought of and have been tempted to test. Take the last few frames of video. Scale and skew them according to perspective transform based on steering wheel angle and road speed. Average them together. W

Hold up. The metro card side of the story doesn't make sense. Why would it relocate to Maspeth Queens, a place that is right in the middle of the transit desert not reachable by subway at all. It's the exact opposite of 370 Jay. N

Screw it I'll bite. You have both far and away missed my point (which is quite a rigorous definition). Anything you do or believe for which you can explain why is not emotion, it is reason. Emotion therefore are exactly those thoughts

It is easy to demonstrate that $10 is more than $100. For example, there are more people walking around with $10 than there are with $100. This indicates that $10 is the more popular, sought after, valuable of the two.
