چکیده

■ High-definition vector imaging (HDVI) is a data-adaptive approach to synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) image reconstruction based on superresolution techniques originally developed for passive sensor arrays. The goals are to produce more informative, higher-resolution imagery for improving target recognition with UHF and millimeter-wave SAR and to aid the image analyst in identifying targets in radar imagery. Algorithms presented here include twodimensional minimum-variance techniques based on the maximum-likelihood method (Capon) algorithm and a two-dimensional version of the MUSIC algorithm. We use simulations to compare processing techniques, and we present results of wideband Rail SAR measurements of reflectors in foliage, demonstrating resolution improvement and clutter rejection. Results with airborne millimeter-wave SAR data demonstrate improved resolution and speckle reduction. We also discuss the vector aspect of HDVI, i.e., the incorporation of non-pointlike scattering models to enable feature detection. An example of a vector image is presented for data from an airborne UHF radar, using the broadside flash model to reveal greater information in the data.

Boundedness of linear order-homomorphisms in $L$-topological vector spaces

A new definition of boundedness of linear order-homomorphisms (LOH)in $L$-topological vector spaces is proposed. The new definition iscompared with the previous one given by Fang [The continuity offuzzy linear order-homomorphism, J. Fuzzy Math. 5 (4) (1997)829$-$838]. In addition, the relationship between boundedness andcontinuity of LOHs is discussed. Finally, a new uniform boundednessprincipl...

Some properties of continuous linear operators in topological vector PN-spaces

The notion of a probabilistic metric  space  corresponds to thesituations when we do not know exactly the  distance.  Probabilistic Metric space was  introduced by Karl Menger. Alsina, Schweizer and Sklar gave a general definition of  probabilistic normed space based on the definition of Menger [1]. In this note we study the PN spaces which are  topological vector spaces and the open mapping an...

Boundedness and Continuity of Fuzzy Linear Order-Homomorphisms on $I$-Topological\ Vector Spaces

In this paper, a new definition of bounded fuzzy linear orderhomomorphism on $I$-topological vector spaces is introduced. Thisdefinition differs from the definition of Fang [The continuity offuzzy linear order-homomorphism. J. Fuzzy Math. {bf5}textbf{(4)}(1997), 829--838]. We show that the ``boundedness"and `` boundedness on each layer" of fuzzy linear orderhomomorphisms do not imply each other...

The Estimation of Renal Function with 99 m Tc - DTPA and 99 m Tc - MAG 3

The estimation of glomerular filtration rate and effective renal plasma flow based on camera-based methods for diagnostic and prognostic are studied by manually ROIs drawing on dynamic renal scintigraphy. The manually ROIs drawing may reduce the convenience and reliability. This paper proposes a estimation of glomerular filtration rate and effective renal plasma flow based on camera-based metho...

The Role of MRSI in Target Volume Definition for Radiation Therapy of Prostate Cancer

Introduction: Recently, magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI), as a functional imaging method, has been used for clinical target volume definition. In this study, we used this method to define the target volume in prostate radiotherapy. Material and Method: In this study, we used images of 20 prostate cancer cases. MRSI and MRI images were fused with CT images. Then, treatment plannin...
