Smoothness Still Matters

ثبت نشده
چکیده

Many factors influence a vehicle’s rate of fuel consumption. Among them are engine efficiency, speed, aerodynamics, and rolling resistance. When it comes to the influence that pavement characteristics have on fuel consumption, one of the major contributors is surface roughness which impacts rolling resistance; more energy is required to propel a vehicle over a rough surface than over a smooth surface.

On Throughput-Smoothness Trade-offs in Streaming Communication

Unlike traditional file transfer where only total delay matters, streaming applications impose delay constraints on each packet and require them to be in order. To achieve fast in-order packet decoding, we have to compromise on the throughput. We study this trade-off between throughput and smoothness in packet decoding. We first consider a point-to-point streaming and analyze how the trade-off ...

Equivalence of K-functionals and modulus of smoothness for fourier transform

In Hilbert space L2(Rn), we prove the equivalence between the mod-ulus of smoothness and the K-functionals constructed by the Sobolev space cor-responding to the Fourier transform. For this purpose, Using a spherical meanoperator.

On the Smoothness of Functors

In this paper we will try to introduce a good smoothness notion for a functor. We consider properties and conditions from geometry and algebraic geometry which we expect a smooth functor should has.

Smooth Foreground-Background Segmentation for Video Processing

We propose an efficient way to account for spatial smoothness in foreground-background segmentation of video sequences. Most statistical background modeling techniques regard the pixels in an image as independent and disregard the fundamental concept of smoothness. In contrast, we model smoothness of the foreground and background with a Markov random field, in such a way that it can be globally...
