This short paper investigates possibility of data recovery for classes of finite sequences under a special discretization of the spectrum range or a special discretization of the process range. It is shown that these sequences can be dense in the space of all sequences and that the uniqueness sets for them can be singletons.

We describe the principles of a device comprised of a static camera and rotating plane mirror that enables the passive recovery of 3D range information. The range recovery can be regarded as either structure from known motion or as virtual multi-camera stereo. Two advantages of the arrangement are that the camera-mirror system is compact and that range information can be recovered over a wide, ...

As anyone who has ever tried to tango knows, the first few steps are fairly easy and can lull someone into a false sense of accomplishment before the more complicated steps begin. Similarly, Argentina is in the midst of the first few steps of a recovery—the easy part. If Argentina wants to successfully complete this dance and have a sustained economic recovery, it needs to undertake the more di...

The purpose of this paper is to provide a discussion of the transformative potential of blended learning in the context of the challenges facing higher education. Based upon a description of blended learning, its potential to support deep and meaningful learning is discussed. From here, a shift to the need to rethink and restructure the learning experience occurs and its transformative potentia...

In this article, an equilibrated gradient recovery error estimator is introduced and analyzed. Regional and global error bounds are established under the equilibrium condition. Furthermore, the error estimator based on the ZZ patch recovery technique is analyzed theoretically. Stability and consistent properties are proved under mild assumptions. All results are valid for arbitrary grids.

Small UUVs have a wide variety of uses including inspection, instrument placement, specimen gathering and salvage. However the uses of these UUVs has been limited by two factors: 1. Cost – UUVs have been traditionally quite expensive, putting them well out of the reach of the traditional marine operator. 2. Wires – Most UUVs trail a cable for power, control, and video back to the operator. The ...

This research develops a gravity-based index of public school competition from private schools within local markets. Proponents of educational reform often call for policies to increase competition between schools. A major hurdle for researchers examining this issue is to determine a workable definition of “competition” by which they can measure the degree of competition within local markets. T...
