This paper proposes an adaptive over-segmentation meth-od for image copy-move forgery detection. Firstly, the Adaptive Over-Segmentation algorithm is proposed to adaptively segment the host image into non-overlapping and irregular blocks. Then the feature points are extracted and matched with each other to locate the labeled feature points which can approximately indicate the suspected forgery ...

The Letter issued by the Patriarch Dionysius of Constantinople was sent to Novgorod in 1467 and affirmed Gregory Bulgarian as only legal Kiev Metropolitan. It is known two handwritten copies, glued into same Gospel 16th century. research these copies let us ascertain that one them written 1460th had form document, not bookish copy. We can suppose ambassadors this Slavic version with Lithuania. ...

ing away from certain complications that we explore in subsequent sections, we derive the meaning in (102b) for the the copy raising example in (102a) and the meaning in (103b) for the related perceptual resemblance example in (103a): (102) a. John seems to me like he’s upset. b. ∃s .seem(s , upset(john)) ∧ PSOURCE = john ∧ PGOAL = speaker (103) a. John sounds to me like he’s upset. b. ∃s .soun...

Foreword Technology allows the monitoring of ever denser and longer serial biological and physical environmental data. This in turn allows the recognition of time structures, chronomes, including, with an ever broader spectrum of rhythms, also deterministic and other chaos and trends. Chronomics1 thus resolves the otherwise impenetrable “normal range” of physiological variation and leads to new...

Read-copy update (RCU) is a synchronization API that is sometimes used in place of reader-writer locks. RCU’s read-side primitives offer extremely low overhead and deterministic execution time. These properties imply that RCU updaters cannot block RCU readers, which means that RCU updaters can be expensive, as they must leave old versions of the data structure in place to accommodate pre-existi...

This report covers work of the Optics Division at Lincoln Laboratory for the period 1 January through 30 June 1974. The topics covered are laser technology and propagation and optical measuremerts and inst r urn ent ati on. Additional information on the optics program may be found in the semiannual technical summary reports to the Advanced Research Projects Agency.

The role of turbulence in the process of magnetic reconnection has been the subject of a great deal of study and debate in the theoretical literature. At issue in this debate is whether turbulence is essential for fast magnetic reconnection to occur in collisionless current sheets. Some theories claim it is necessary in order to provide anomalous resistivity, while others present a laminar fast...

Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) is a polyploid, outcrossing grass species native to North America and has recently been recognized as a potential biofuel feedstock crop. Significant phenotypic variation including ploidy is present across the two primary ecotypes of switchgrass, referred to as upland and lowland switchgrass. The tetraploid switchgrass genome is approximately 1400 Mbp, split betwe...
