in this paper, we propose a new numerical method for solution of urysohn two dimensional mixed volterra-fredholm integral equations of the second kind on a non-rectangular domain. the method approximates the solution by the discrete collocation method based on inverse multiquadric radialbasis functions (rbfs) constructed on a set of disordered data. the method is a meshless method, because it i...

a two-dimensional model of al, si ordering in alkali feldspar is formulated and used to calcul~tea ccurately the configurational entropy for the model. for this purpose, a new method called independent basic unit or ibu is introduced. to compare the results with the exact values, this method is applied to the onedimensional model of albite. the results given by ibu are found to be accurate to t...

This paper presents an automatic face recognition system, which bases on two-dimensional hidden Markov models. The traditional HMM uses one-dimensional data vectors, which is a drawback in the case of 2D image processing, as part of the information is lost during the conversion. The article presents the full ergodic 2D-HMM and used it to identify faces. The experimental results demonstrate that...

Feature extraction is one of key technologies of the palmprint identification. In the light of the characteristics subspace palmprint identification technology, the two-dimensional principal component analysis, two-dimensional fisher linear discriminant and two-way two-dimensional principal component analysis algorithm is deeply analyzed. Based on two-dimensional subspace palmprint identificati...

A method to compute the bound state eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a Schrödinger equation or a spinless Salpeter equation with central interaction is presented. This method is the generalization to the three-dimensional case of the Fourier grid Hamiltonian method for one-dimensional Schrödinger equation. It requires only the evaluation of the potential at equally spaced grid points and yield...

A new two-dimensional panel technique has been developed to solve Laplacian flows, which eliminates the edge effect present in traditional panel methods. Such a method is very useful for applications where the velocity induced by the panels is required at arbitrary locations. Particle based flow solvers are a prime example. The method, however, requires considerably more computational effort. I...

Indexing techniques usually are used in modelbased object recognition and ray tracing algorithms. In this paper we present a new method for estimating the threedimensional position of a subject (resp. object) in a circumscribed space based on an indexing method. We construct two and three-dimensional indices of a space, which are used to estimate the three-dimensional position by an interpolati...

In this paper we propose a two-dimensional (2D) Laplacianfaces method for face recognition. The new algorithm is developed based on two techniques, i.e., locality preserved embedding and image based projection. The 2D Laplacianfaces method is not only computationally more efficient but also more accurate than the one-dimensional (1D) Laplacianfaces method in extracting the facial features for h...
