The ring strain energies of carbomeric-cycloalkanes (molecules with one or more acetylene spacer units placed into carbon single bonds) are assessed using a series of isodesmic, homodesmotic, and hyperhomodesmotic chemical equations. Isodesmic bond separat ...
This paper revisits theories of weak signal analysis using the concepts of 'framing' and 'meta-framing' to provide an enriched methodological environment for management and decision-making in turbulent contexts. This attempt takes place within the effort t ...
The grazing function g is introduced—a synchrobetatron optical quantity that is analogous (and closely connected) to the Twiss and dispersion functions β, α, η, and η′. It parametrizes the rate of change of total angle with respect to synchrotron amplitude ...
The database of satellite images covering the earth is growing extremely quickly and represents an important amount of data. The extension of this huge amount of data with images from very different sources and time of acquisition can provide a wide range ...
This paper discusses practical implementation of a generic camera model for a wide variety of common cameras equipped with catadioptric, fish-eye, short- or long focal length lenses. A unified approach of deriving approximate model parameters followed by a ...
This invention discloses new methods and security devices for authenticating documents and valuable products which may be applied to any support, including transparent synthetic materials and traditional opaque materials such as paper. The invention relate ...
We present a fast method to detect humans from stationary surveillance videos. Traditional approaches exploit background subtraction as an attentive filter, by applying the still image detectors only on foreground regions. This doesn't take into account th ...
Being currently performed on highly complex and expensive equipments, active optical alignment of single mode 10 Gb/s transmitters and receivers is proving to be the bottleneck process for high volume manufacturing. In order to alleviate this production bu ...
In this paper, Digital Holographic Microscopy (DHM) is presented as a powerful tool for quality control of micro-optical components. It will be shown that not only the single-shot full field-of-view nanometer axial resolution makes DHM an ideal solution fo ...
We present a reflective multiple-fold approach to visible imaging for high-resolution, large aperture cameras of significantly reduced thickness. This approach allows for reduced bulk and weight compared with large high-quality camera systems and improved ...
