Since I’ve had my tx2000, I’ve wanted a way to customize the QuickPlay buttons that are on the unit, but HP certainly doesn’t make it easy. After doing some reading online and stumbling on to the forum thread at TabletPCReview.com, along with doing a little research of my own (and thanks to the user "danegreat"), I’ve been able to figure out a method of using two programs Launch and AutoItv3 to assign any functionality within Windows Mobility Center (for Windows Vista) to the keys. In this example, I will be assigning the keys to control the screen brightness. Interested in how to do this for yourself? Well, read on!

One of my main interests in learning about image processing and video coding has always been how high dynamic range images and videos are made. I ended up putting together a basic overview/tutorial presentation for one of the classes, which I have posted here in .doc and .ppt formats.

Having recently come across a paper by Shai Avidan and Ariel Shamir, and watching the totally awesome video about seam carving, I decided to try my hand at implementing their algorithm for myself. I’ve included a quick overview of what seam carving is, the MATLAB program I have created, a summary of the algorithm itself with some implementation details, as well as some notes on how to run my program, so without further ado…

If you would like to run this program on your copy of MATLAB, you will need to have the image processing …
