11. COMPARISON OF TWO DIMENSION-REDUCTION METHODS FOR NETWORK SIMULATION MODELS
Series: Journal of Research (NIST JRES)
Report Number: 116-5
Published: 10/5/2011
Authors: Kevin L Mills, James J Filliben
Abstract: Experimenters characterize the behavior of simulation models for data communications networks by measuring multiple responses under selected parameter combinations. The resulting multivariate data may include redundant responses reflecting aspects of ...

12. Service Life Prediction for Sealants
Published: 9/29/2011
Authors: Christopher C White, Donald Lee Hunston, Kar Tean Tan, James J Filliben
Abstract: Previous industry consensus postulated that four elements of the weather: Temperature, Humidity, Ultraviolet Radiation, and Mechanical loading were responsible for the majority of the changes observed in sealants exposed to outdoor weathering. The N ...

13. PREDICTING MACROSCOPIC DYNAMICS IN LARGE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS
Published: 7/18/2011
Authors: Kevin L Mills, James J Filliben
Abstract: In this paper, we outline an approach that can be used to predict macroscopic dynamics when new components are deployed in a large distributed system. Our approach combines two main methods: scale reduction and multidimensional data analysis techniqu ...

14. Comparison of segmentation algorithms for fluorescence microscopy images of cells
Published: 6/14/2011
Authors: Alden A Dima, John T Elliott, James J Filliben, Michael W Halter, Adele P Peskin, Javier Bernal, Marcin Kociolek, Mary C Brady, Hai C. Tang, Anne L Plant
Abstract: Segmentation results from nine different segmentation techniques applied to two different cell lines and five different sets of imaging conditions were compared. Significant variability in the results of segmentation was observed that was due solely ...

15. Robust Iris Recognition Baseline for the Grand Challenge
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7777
Published: 5/17/2011
Authors: Yooyoung Lee, Ross J Micheals, James J Filliben, P Jonathon Phillips
Abstract: Due to its distinctiveness, the human iris is a popular biometric feature used to identity a person with high accuracy. The “Grand Challenge” in iris recognition is to have an effective algorithm for subject verification or identification under a bro ...

16. Characterization of the Range Performance of a 3D Imaging System (NIST TN 1695)
Series: Technical Note (NIST TN)
Report Number: 1695
Published: 5/9/2011
Authors: Geraldine S Cheok, Kamel Shawki Saidi, Marek Franaszek, James J Filliben, Nicholas Scott
Abstract: A 3D imaging instrument is a non-contact measurement instrument used to rapidly obtain 3D information about a scene or object. The use of and the applications for these instruments have grown tremendously in the last decade. The expanded use of 3D ...

17. Optimization of Particle Sizes in High Volume Fly Ash Blended Cements
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Published: 2/2/2011
Authors: Dale P Bentz, Chiara F Ferraris, James J Filliben
Abstract: One major objective of the sustainable construction movement is to decrease the energy and carbon dioxide footprints of concrete. Since the production of portland cement is a major contributor in both of these areas, concretes with increasing quanti ...

19. AN EFFICIENT SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS METHOD FOR NETWORK SIMULATION MODELS
Published: 12/7/2010
Authors: Kevin L Mills, James J Filliben
Abstract: Simulation models for data communications networks encompass numerous parameters that can each take on millions of values, presenting experimenters with a vast space of potential parameter combinations. To apply such simulation models experimenters f ...
