Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LES MATERIAUX SONT ETUDIES PAR ANALYSE DE LA TEXTURE INTERNE DONNANT ACCES AUX PROPRIETES THERMIQUES, ELECTRIQUES ET MECANIQUES ET PAR ANALYSE DE LA FORME EXTERNE (FROTTEMENTS ET PROPRIETES CATALYTIQUES). LA PREMIERE PARTIE S'ATTACHE A LA CARACTERISATION DE LA FORME EXTERNE. LES MOYENS D'OBSERVATION SONT PRESENTES ET CRITIQUES. LES DIFFERENTS PARAMETRES DE MESURE LIES A LA RUGOSITE SONT EXTRAITS SOIT DE LA SURFACE, SOIT DE PROFILS VERTICAUX, SOIT DE SECTIONS HORIZONTALES. LEUR CARACTERISATION EST INSUFFISANTE ; IL EST DONC NECESSAIRE DE RECOURIR A L'EMPLOI DE FONCTIONS D'ABORD DE NATURE METRIQUE ET ENSUITE DE NATURE TOPOLOGIQUE. LES GRANULOMETRIES MORPHOLOGIQUES EN NIVEAUX DE GRIS PERMETTENT DE QUANTIFIER LES TAILLES DES ANFRACTUOSITES ET DES ASPERITES. ENSUITE, ON DEFINIT D'UNE MANIERE ANALOGUE LES FONCTIONS DE RUGOSITE, DONT UNE EST INDEPENDANTE DES ANAMORPHOSES. LES SURFACES NON PLANES SONT ETUDIEES A L'AIDE DE FONCTIONS DE MESURE DEPENDANT D'UN PARAMETRE DE HAUTEUR D'INONDATION. TROIS PROCESSUS SONT ALORS DEFINIS: L'IMMERSION, L'INONDATION PAR DEFAUT ET PAR EXCES EST RAPIDEMENT ECARTE PAR MANQUE DE STABILITE. L'IMMERSION RENSEIGNE SUR LE DEGRE DE SYMETRIE DU RELIEF ET DONNE DES COEFFICIENTS DE TAILLE DES PICS ET DES CREUX, TANDIS QUE L'INONDATION PAR DEFAUT CARACTERISE LA MICRORUGOSITE. DANS LA SECONDE PARTIE, UN EXEMPLE D'ANALYSE DE LA TEXTURE INTERNE EST DECRIT. UNE PROCEDURE DE SEGMENTATION AUTOMATIQUE DES CERMETS WC-CO EST PROPOSEE. PUIS, DES MESURES SONT REALISEES SUR LES IMAGES RESULTANTES ; ELLES SONT ALORS COMPAREES AUX MESURES EFFECTUEES SUR LES IMAGES SEGMENTEES PAR UN OPERATEUR QUALIFIE ; LES ECARTS DE MESURES SONT INFERIEURS AUX FLUCTUATIONS STATISTIQUES: LES RESULTATS SONT DONC PROBANTS

Download or read book Local Approximation Techniques in Signal and Image Processing written by Vladimir I︠A︡kovlevich Katkovnik and published by SPIE-International Society for Optical Engineering. This book was released on 2006 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with a wide class of novel and efficient adaptive signal processing techniques developed to restore signals from noisy and degraded observations. These signals include those acquired from still or video cameras, electron microscopes, radar, X-rays, or ultrasound devices, and are used for various purposes, including entertainment, medical, business, industrial, military, civil, security, and scientific. In many cases useful information and high quality must be extracted from the imaging. However, often raw signals are not directly suitable for this purpose and must be processed in some way. Such processing is called signal reconstruction. This book is devoted to a recent and original approach to signal reconstruction based on combining two independent ideas: local polynomial approximation and the intersection of confidence interval rule.

Download or read book Xenakis written by James Harley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-02 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Xenakis: His Life in Music is a full-length study of the influential contemporary composer Iannis Xenakis. Following the trajectory of Xenakis’s compositional development, James Harley, who studied with Xenakis, presents the works together with clear explanations of the technical and conceptual innovations that shaped them. Harley examines the relationship between the composer and two early influences: Messiaen and Le Corbusier. Particular attention is paid to analyzing works which were vital to the composer’s creative development, from early, unpublished works to the breakthrough pieces Metastasis and Pithoprakta, through the oft-discussed decade of formalization and the evolving styles of the succeeding three decades.

Download or read book Mood Choice in Complement Clauses written by Toth and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume investigates various approaches to mood distribution and mood variation in lexically selected complement clauses with special reference to Hungarian data. Its primary aim is to show that semantic factors play a crucial role in mood choice. The analysis focuses on the indicative/non-indicative opposition, the latter category includes the subjunctive, the imperative and the conditional. Critical discussion, revision and elaboration of previous semantic approaches pertaining to mood choice are presented, with particular emphasis on the applicability of the various analyses to mood phenomena in Hungarian. The author proposes two novel hypotheses about mood choice in Hungarian complement clauses.

Download or read book Applied Signal Processing written by Thierry Dutoit and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-06-10 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Signal Processing: A MATLAB-Based Proof of Concept benefits readers by including the teaching background of experts in various applied signal processing fields and presenting them in a project-oriented framework. Unlike many other MATLAB-based textbooks which only use MATLAB to illustrate theoretical aspects, this book provides fully commented MATLAB code for working proofs-of-concept. The MATLAB code provided on the accompanying online files is the very heart of the material. In addition each chapter offers a functional introduction to the theory required to understand the code as well as a formatted presentation of the contents and outputs of the MATLAB code. Each chapter exposes how digital signal processing is applied for solving a real engineering problem used in a consumer product. The chapters are organized with a description of the problem in its applicative context and a functional review of the theory related to its solution appearing first. Equations are only used for a precise description of the problem and its final solutions. Then a step-by-step MATLAB-based proof of concept, with full code, graphs, and comments follows. The solutions are simple enough for readers with general signal processing background to understand and they use state-of-the-art signal processing principles. Applied Signal Processing: A MATLAB-Based Proof of Concept is an ideal companion for most signal processing course books. It can be used for preparing student labs and projects.

This book was released on 1996-08-29 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the interface between two diverse areas of applied mathematics which are both 'customers' of the maximum likelihood methodology; emission tomography and hidden Markov models as an approach to speech understanding. Other areas where maximum likelihood is used in this volume include parsing of text (Jelinek), microstructure of materials (Ji), DNA sequencing (Nelson). Most of the participants were in the main areas of speech or emission density reconstruction.

Download or read book Multimodal User Interfaces written by Dimitros Tzovaras and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-27 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: tionship indicates how multimodal medical image processing can be unified to a large extent, e. g. multi-channel segmentation and image registration, and extend information theoretic registration to other features than image intensities. The framework is not at all restricted to medical images though and this is illustrated by applying it to multimedia sequences as well. In Chapter 4, the main results from the developments in plastic UIs and mul- modal UIs are brought together using a theoretic and conceptual perspective as a unifying approach. It is aimed at defining models useful to support UI plasticity by relying on multimodality, at introducing and discussing basic principles that can drive the development of such UIs, and at describing some techniques as proof-of-concept of the aforementioned models and principles. In Chapter 4, the authors introduce running examples that serve as illustration throughout the d- cussion of the use of multimodality to support plasticity.
