On Rejection

Semantic considerations on rejection

Rejection of some beliefs when a more faithful information is acquired belongs among fundamental features of human (nonmonotonic) reasoning. However, this feature has been noticed usually more as a side effect than as a subject of value for a theoretical investigation. Recently rejections of rules attracted an attention of researchers in logic program updates. An important insight has been obta...

Outlier rejection for cameras on intelligent vehicles

This paper proposes an algorithm for rejecting false matches (known as outliers) in image pairs acquired with automobile-mounted cameras. Many intelligent vehicle applications require point correspondences for motion estimation and 3D reconstruction which can be affected by outliers. We use the property of automobile motion to reject outliers. Automobile motion mostly represented by two transla...

On Interference Rejection in Wireless Multichannel Systems

To meet the growing demands for service provisioning using wireless access, efficient utilization of the available radio spectrum is a key issue of great importance. To achieve high spectrum efficiency, use of spectral efficient modulation methods in combination with tight physical channel reuse are anticipated in future cellular communication systems. As a consequence, the link performance and...

On-line Multiprocessor Tasks Scheduling with Rejection

This paper deals with multiprocessor task scheduling with ready times, due dates and prespecified processor allocation. In the studied problem tasks are not initially all available in the scheduler and can be executed only by given ready times, respecting their due dates. Moreover, a task can be examined in order to be processed only when it enters the scheduler. The concept of rejection is int...
