Orthophoto imagery is a valuable layer in a GIS because it provides a generic, inexpensive, and accurate base map. However, in cities with tall buildings it is difficult to create a seamless database of orthophoto imagery. Traditional methods for orthophoto rectification disregard buildings. In this paper, we describe a fully automated process, developed by ASI, that creates true orthophotograp...

OBJECTIVES For a reliable interpretation of left-right difference in Vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP), the amount of sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) contraction has to be considered. Therefore, we can ensure that a difference in amplitude between the right and left VEMPs on a patient is due to vestibular abnormality, not due to individual differences of tonic muscle activity, fatigu...

The feasibility of employing azulene-like molecules as a new type of high performance substitution-free molecular rectifier has been explored using NEGF-DFT calculation. The electronic transport behaviors of metal-molecule-metal junctions consisting of various azulene-like dithiol molecules are investigated, which reveals that the azulene-like molecules exhibit high conductance and bias-depende...

Quantum mechanics dictates the band-structure of materials that is essential for functional electronic components. With increased miniaturization devices, it becomes possible to exploit full potential quantum through principles superposition and entanglement. We propose a new class rectifiers can leverage entanglement dramatically increase performance by coupling two small spin chains an effect...

This paper deals with automatic Single View Reconstruction (SVR) of multi-planar scenes characterized by a profusion of straight lines and mutually orthogonal line-pairs. We provide a new shape-from-X constraint based on this regularity of angles between line-pairs in manmade scenes. First, we show how the presence of such regular angles can be used for 2D rectification of an image of a plane. ...
