چکیده

In this paper we present a volume data model amenable to querying volumes in databases. Unlike most existing volume models, which are directed towards specific applications (notably, volume displaying) and are therefore directed towards executing with the greatest possible efficiency a small set of operations, we are interested in defining a volume algebra through which generic query conditions can be composed. We argue that a general volume model should have two characteristics: (1) it should consider volumes as first class data types that can be returned as results of queries, and (2) it should model volumes as continua, hiding the discrete nature of the measurements inside the representation.

An Interpolated Volume Data Model

Representing volume data is an important task in many fields, from medicine [1] to physics and geology. Volumes are generated by collecting discrete measurements over a finite region of space, and this collection process leads naturally to two observations: first, what is usually called a volume is in reality a function f : V → M from a volume V to a measurement space M ; second, the volume—whi...

Handling Interpolated Data

This paper addresses fundamental issues related to the modeling of geometric data embedded in high-dimensional spaces. This covers several application fields, including moving objects where trajectories are described in a threeor four-dimensional space, and digital elevation models (DEMs). We show that moving objects and DEMs are specific instances of a broader class of complex spatial data tha...

Reaction Dynamics of NH2+OH on an Interpolated Potential Energy Surface

QCT calculations were performed to study the behavior of energized NH2OH formed by association collision of NH2 radical with OH radical. A potential energy surface that describes the behavior of the title reaction has been constructed by interpolation of ab initio data. H2O, HON, HNO, NH3, O, H2NO, cis or trans-HONH, and H products and two vibrationally energized NH2OH and NH3O adducts were obs...

A Rectangular Finite Volume Element Method for a Semilinear Elliptic Equation

In this paper we extend the idea of interpolated coefficients for semilinear problems to the finite volume element method based on rectangular partition. At first we introduce bilinear finite volume element method with interpolated coefficients for a boundary value problem of semilinear elliptic equation. Next we derive convergence estimate in H 1-norm and superconvergence of derivative. Finall...
