Therefore, acquiring a relative perception of these terms, with regard t...

Historical Map Registration via Independent Model Adjustment with Affine Transformations

This paper presents a methodology for historical map registration with a multi-image affine transformation estimated with a simultaneous Least Squares independent model adjustment. The method is based on two set of equations for (i) image-to-ground and (ii) image-to-image points and provides the rectification parameters with a global approach where all the unknowns are simultaneously estimated....

Perceptual Analysis of Fast and Irregular Transformations in Historical Urban Landscape (Case Study: Historical-Religious City of Ray and Shemiran District-Tehran)

On p-semilinear transformations

In this paper, we introduce $p$-semilinear transformations for linear algebras over a field ${bf F}$ of positive characteristic $p$, discuss initially the elementary properties of $p$-semilinear transformations, make use of it to give some characterizations of linear algebras over a field ${bf F}$ of positive characteristic $p$. Moreover, we find a one-to-one correspondence between $p$-semiline...
