FFT-based Alignment of 2d Closed Curves with Application to Elastic Shape Analysis

September 10, 2015
Author(s)
Gunay Dogan, Javier Bernal, Robert Hagwood
For many shape analysis problems in computer vision and scientific imaging (e.g., computational anatomy, morphological cytometry), the ability to align two closed curves in the plane is crucial. In this paper, we concentrate on rigidly aligning pairs of

Improving the TENOR of Labeling: Re-evaluating Topic Models for Content Analysis

March 23, 2024
Author(s)
Zongxia Li, Andrew Mao, Jordan Boyd-Graber, Daniel Stephens, Emily Walpole, Alden A. Dima, Juan Fung
Topic models are a popular tool for understanding text collections, but their evaluation has been a point of contention. Automated evaluation metrics such as coherence are often used, however, their validity has been questioned for neural topic models

Cell Phone Forensics Tools: An Overview and Analysis

October 19, 2005
Author(s)
Richard Ayers, Wayne Jansen, Nicolas Cilleros, Ronan Daniellou
Cell phones and other handheld devices incorporating cell phone capabilities (e.g., Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) phones) are ubiquitous. Rather than just placing calls, certain phones allow users to perform additional tasks such as SMS (Short Message

Defining Flashover for Fire Hazard Calculations

June 1, 1999
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Paul A. Reneke, Richard W. Bukowski, Vyto Babrauskas
As the use of performance-based methods for evaluating the fire behavior of materials and systems becomes more widespread, objective criteria to judge fire behavior become more important. This paper reviews techniques for predicting the most common of

Comparison of Photovoltaic Module Performance Measurements

May 2, 2006
Author(s)
Arthur H. Fanney, Mark W. Davis, Brian P. Dougherty, D L. King, W E. Boyson, J A. Kratochvil
Computer simulation tools used to predict the energy production of photovoltaic systems are needed in order to make informed economic decisions. These tools require input parameters that characterize module performance under various operational and

Model of Multiroom Fire Spread.

July 1, 1983
Author(s)
T Tanaka
Some refinements have been made on a multi-room fire sread model. The primary improvements are: (a) that a model on excess fuel burning in arbitrary room has been introduced; (b) that a model for the prediction of gas concentrations has been added; (c)

Quasi-continuous voltage standard using sinusoidal and pulse-driven Josephson junction arrays

November 16, 2022
Author(s)
Dimitrios Georgakopoulos, Ilya Budovsky, Samuel P. Benz
… operation is that all the Josephson junctions must have quantum locking ranges with respect to the power of the radio … (RF) bias and for the pulse-driven JJAs flat first quantum step. We anticipate that the new system will make … standards, programmable Josephson voltage standard, quantum electrical standards, voltage generation …
