What crime have we committed?












38












$begingroup$



We start in a city that rhymes with angina,

the masculine form, add in what's drunk in China,

then take phylum's first six, of the minor kind,

components will make what in our hand we find.



We add to our hand where we initiated,

and what's in between, plus the two lower-rated,

now, this combination leads straight to a street,

we keep going southwards till we know we're beat.




What violent crime have we committed?

          Following on from NudgeNudge who got halfway with




          Ace - which is what is in our hand




          This can be shortened to




          A (this is just the standard abbreviation, and what is on the corner of the card)




          Adding where we initiated




          AQ (Regina = Queen = Q)




          Whats inbetween and the two lower rated




          A K Q J 10




          this combination leads straight to a street




          This is a broadway straight in poker (assuming it's not a royal flush, I guess)




          we keep going southwards till we know we're beat




          Following broadway southwards in Manhattan leads to Battery park




          So the answer is




          Battery

            why did you shorten in the second step? Doesn't change the next steps but still curious.

          Partial:



          We start in a city that rhymes with angina,




          Regina




          the masculine form,




          Regina is queen in latin, and king is rex.




          add in what's drunk in China,




          Tea, so t-rex




          then take phylum's first six,




          The phylum of t-rexes is chordata. First six letters are chord a.




          of the minor kind,




          That is, the Am chord.




          components will make what in our hand we find.




          The components of the Am chord are the notes A, C, E. So there's an ace in our hand?

          How to label and detect the document text images

          Image
          1 $begingroup$ This is what I mean as document text image: I want to label the texts in image as separate blocks and my model should detect these labels as classes. NOTE: This is how the end result should be like: The labels like Block 1, Block 2, Block 3,.. should be Logo, Title, Date,.. Others, etc. Work done: First approach : I tried to implement this method via Object Detection, it didn't work. It didn't even detect any text. Second approach : Then I tried it using PixelLink. As this model is build for scene text detection, it detected each and every text in the image. But this method can detect multiple lines of text if the threshold values are increased. But I have no idea how do I add labels to the text blocks. PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones = 'PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones' PIXEL_C...

          Tabula Rosettana

          Image
          Tabula multilinguis Rosettana in Museo Britannico ostenditur. Tabula Rosettana, [1] etiam titulo OGIS 90 agnita, est stela decreto de rebus sacris in Aegypto anno 196 a.C.n. lato inscripta. Tabula iuxta Rosettam Aegypti, urbem in delta Nili et ad oram maris Mediterranei iacentem, anno 1799 a milite Francico reperta est. Inventio stelae, linguis duabus scripturisque tribus inscriptae, eruditis Instituti Aegypti statim nuntiata est; ibi enim iussu imperatoris Napoleonis eruditi omnium scientiarum (sub aegide Commissionis Scientiarum et Artium) properaverant cum expeditione Francica. Qua a Britannis mox debellata, tabula Rosettana Londinium missa hodie apud Museum Britannicum iacet. Textus Graecus cito lectus interpretationi textuum Aegyptiorum (in formis hieroglyphica et demotica expressorum) gradatim adiuvit. Denique textum plene interpretatus est Ioannes Franciscus Champollion. Ab opere eruditorum cumulativo coepit hodiernus scripturae hieroglyphicae linguaeque Aegyptiae a...
