Parametric logarithmic type image processing for contrast based auto-focus in extreme lighting conditions

Corneliu Florea, Laura Florea (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

While most of state-of-the-art image processing techniques were built under the so-called classical linear image processing, an alternative that presents superior behavior for specific applications comes in the form of Logarithmic Type Image Processing (LTIP). This refers to mathematical models constructed for the representation and processing of gray tones images. In this paper we describe a general mathematical framework that allows extensions of these models by various means while preserving...

Partitioned iterated function systems with division and a fractal dependence graph in recognition of 2D shapes

Krzysztof Gdawiec, Diana Domańska (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

One of the approaches in pattern recognition is the use of fractal geometry. The property of self-similarity of fractals has been used as a feature in several pattern recognition methods. All fractal recognition methods use global analysis of the shape. In this paper we present some drawbacks of these methods and propose fractal local analysis using partitioned iterated function systems with division. Moreover, we introduce a new fractal recognition method based on a dependence graph obtained from...

PDF Enhancements Tools for a Digital Library

Hatlapatka, Radim, Sojka, Petr (2010)

Towards a Digital Mathematics Library. Paris, France, July 7-8th, 2010

This paper describes several innovative PDF document enhancements and tools that can be used when building a digital library. The main result presented in this paper is the PDF re-compression tool, developed using the jbig2enc encoder called pdfJbIm. This re-compression tool enables the size of the original bitonal PDFs to be, on average, downsized by one third. Some modifications to the jbig2enc encoder that increase the compression ratio even further are also described here. Together with another...

Piecewise linear classifiers preserving high local recognition rates

Hiroshi Tenmoto, Mineichi Kudo, Masaru Shimbo (1998)

Kybernetika

We propose a new method to construct piecewise linear classifiers. This method constructs hyperplanes of a piecewise linear classifier so as to keep the correct recognition rate over a threshold for a training set. The threshold is determined automatically by the MDL (Minimum Description Length) criterion so as to avoid overfitting of the classifier to the training set. The proposed method showed better results in some experiments than a previous method.

Probabilistic interpretation and random walk on spheres algorithms for the Poisson-Boltzmann equation in molecular dynamics

Mireille Bossy, Nicolas Champagnat, Sylvain Maire, Denis Talay (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Motivated by the development of efficient Monte Carlo methods for PDE models in molecular dynamics, we establish a new probabilistic interpretation of a family of divergence form operators with discontinuous coefficients at the interface of two open subsets of d . This family of operators includes the case of the linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation used to compute the electrostatic free energy of a molecule. More precisely, we explicitly construct a Markov process whose infinitesimal generator...
