Super-resolution seeks to create a high-quality image of a scene from several lowquality images of the same scene. Though a literature of super-resolution applications exists, implementing super resolution successfully is apparently quite difficult. In fact, a student unsuccessfully attempted to implement super-resolution in a previous offering of this course. I will attempt the same task, but ...

In this paper we consider a simple kind of the statechart language which is supported by the CASE tool Rhapsody. This kind of statecharts is already modeled in [4] using graph transformation. In accordance to [4], we allow hierarchical composition (sub-states and super-states) and parallel composition (combination of states by conjunction). A sample statechart is shown by Figure 1. It models th...

Super-resolution algorithms are facing a number of issues, in that image registration is one of the major challenges. Here, we need to generate an improved resolution image that is reconstructed based on several geometrically warped, linearly blurred and noisy images. The ultimate goal is to compute a high-resolution image from low resolution image. For this an approach which makes use of geome...

Assume that binary rank-dependent expected utility (subjective expected utility is a special case) holds for gains and losses separately and that a commutative binary operation of joint receipt on consequences and gambles is linked to binary gambles via the rational property of segregation. This implies that utility U of joint receipt is either itself additive or is an exponential transformatio...

In this paper, we compare the properties of the traditional additive-based data envelopment analysis (hereafter, referred to as DEA) models and propose two generalized DEA models, i.e., the big M additive-based DEA (hereafter, referred to as BMA) model and the big M additive-based super-efficiency DEA (hereafter, referred to as BMAS) model, to evaluate the performance of the biomass power plant...

We simulate the transformation of a classical fluid into a quantum-like (super)-fluid by the application of a generalized quantum potential through a retroactive loop. This numerical experiment is exemplified in the case of a non-spreading oscillating wave packet in a harmonic potential. We find signatures of a quantum-like behavior which are stable against various perturbations.

As the community strives towards autonomous multi-robot systems, there is a need for these systems to autonomously form coalitions to complete assigned missions. Numerous coalition formation algorithms have been proposed in the software agent literature. Algorithms exist that form agent coalitions in both super additive and non-super additive environments. The algorithmic techniques vary from n...

SUMMARY In many problems one wants to model the relationship between a response Y and a covariate X. Sometimes it is diicult, expensive, or even impossible to observe X directly, but one can instead observe a substitute variable W which is easier to obtain. By far the most common model for the relationship between the actual covariate of interest X and the substitute W is W = X + U, where the v...
