Estimation of building shape by block size

Optimal block size for variance estimation by a spatial block bootstrap method

This paper considers the block selection problem for a block bootstrap variance estimator applied to spatial data on a regular grid. We develop precise formulae for the optimal block sizes that minimize the mean squared error of the bootstrap variance estimator. We then describe practical methods for estimating these spatial block sizes and prove the consistency of a block selection method by H...

A Bayesian Estimation of Building Shape Using MCMC

Body building: regulation of shape and size by PI3K/TOR signaling during development

Growth of organisms and their constituent parts responds to both intrinsic and extrinsic cues during development: organisms of a given species generally grow at a predictable rate and to a specific body size, but individuals can modify this program during development in response to environmental conditions. Recent experiments, using gene knockouts and targeted overexpression, have revealed the ...

Building-Block Identification by Simultaneity Matrix

We propose a BB identification by simultaneity matrix (BISM) algorithm. The input is a set of -bit solutions denoted by S. The number of solutions is denoted by n = |S|. The output is a partition of bit positions {0, . . . , − 1}. The BISM is composed of Simultaneity-Matrix-Construction and Fine-Valid-Partition algorithms. Algorithm SMC is outlined as follows (aij denotes the matrix element at ...

Optimal quadtree for variable block size motion estimation

In this paper, we present a new approach to find the best quadtree for variable block size (VBS) motion estimation. In this approach, the quantizer which encodes the prediction residual is also jointly optimized in a rate-distortion sense. The desired balance of the bit allocation between the motion vector coding and the residual error coding is achieved by a Lagrange multiplier approach for th...
