FMCW radar is a popular technique for sensors. A Direct Digital Synthesiser (DDS) commonly used to generate the required linear frequency sweep. DDS devices are widely-available and easy configure in terms of key parameters sweep bandwidth pulse duration. They step-approximation which increment parameter also needs be defined. However, there little information available literature guide designe...

Insects in Kentucky bluegrass seed production fields in Oregon, Idaho, and Washington were sampled just before harvest and their association with ergot conidia of Claviceps purpurea Fr. (Tul.) was evaluated during 1996-1998. A diversity of insects was observed at all three locations. The most abundant beneficial insects collected with sweep nets were Nysium spp., Nabis spp., ichneumonid wasps, ...

We discuss a non-reversible, lifted Markov-chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm for particle systems in which the direction of proposed displacements is changed deterministically. This sweeps through directions analogously to popular MCMC sweep methods or spin indices. Direction-sweep can be applied wide range original reversible non-reversible Markov chains, such as Metropolis event-chain algori...

lstituto Beni Culturali (Institute for Cultural Heritage) is the cultural institution of Regione Emilia Romagna. IBC web site [6] has been completely revised in cooperation with Hypermedia Open Center [S], the laboratory of the Electronics and Information Department at Politecnico di Milano. We adopted W2000 model for requirements analysis and for the analysis and organization of the applicatio...

braconidae (hymenoptera) communities at high altitudes in alfalfa fields of kerman province (iran) were analyzed. the communities were sampled by sweep netting in 2014 and 2015. samples were taken from three altitudinal transects: 1900–2300 m, 2400–2700 m and 2800–3100 m. a total of 1773 braconid specimens belonging to seven subfamilies were collected. alpha, beta and gamma diversities were ana...

Voronoi diagrams are among the most important data structures in geometric modeling. Among many efficient algorithms for computing 2D Voronoi diagrams, Fortune’s sweepline algorithm (Fortune, 1986 [5]) is popular due to its elegance and simplicity. Dehne and Klein (1987) [8] extended sweepline to sweepcircle and suggested computing a type of transformed Voronoi diagram, which is parallel in nat...

Two new results are added to the theory of Time Delay Spectrometry (TDS). The rst is the discovery of a fundamental property of the complex linear frequency sweep. This property allows for perfect reconstruction of the desired spectrum. The second result is a reenement to the deenition of space equivalent bandwidth. Implementation issues are addressed and a computer simulation is described whic...

This paper considers how to adapt geometric algorithms, developed for content-based music retrieval of symbolically encoded music, to be robust against time deformations required by real-world applications. In this setting, music is represented by sets of points in plane. A matching, pertinent to the application, involves two such sets of points and invariances under translations and time scali...

Topological predicates between spatial objects have always been a main area of research on spatial data handling, reasoning, and query languages. The focus of research has definitely been on the design of and reasoning with these predicates, whereas implementation issues have been largely neglected. Besides, design efforts have been restricted to simplified abstractions of spatial objects like ...

This paper presents an algorithm to compute an approximation to the general sweep boundary of a 2D curved moving object which changes its shape dynamically while traversing a trajectory. In eeect, we make polygonal approximations to the trajectory and to the object shape at every appropriate instance along the trajectory so that the approximated polygonal sweep boundary is within a given error ...
