We address the problem of super-resolution of point sources from binary measurements, where random projections of the blurred measurement of the actual signal are encoded using only the sign information. The threshold used for binary quantization is not known to the decoder. We develop an algorithm that solves convex programs iteratively and achieves signal recovery. The proposed algorithm, whi...

We propose an extension of the mixture of factor (or independent component) analyzers model to include strongly super-gaussian mixture source densities. This allows greater economy in representation of densities with (multiple) peaked modes or heavy tails than using several Gaussians to represent these features. We derive an EM algorithm to find the maximum likelihood estimate of the model, and...

The classical Black–Scholes hedging strategy of a European contingent claim may require rapid changes in the replicating portfolio. One approach to avoid this is to impose a priori bounds on the variations of the allowed trading strategies, called gamma constraints. Under such a restriction, it is in general no longer possible to replicate a European contingent claim, and super-replication is a...

A Steer-By-Wire (SBW) control scheme is proposed for enhancing the lateral stability and handling capability of a super lightweight vehicle by using the energy optimal control method. Tire dissipation power and virtual power, which is the product of yaw moment and the deviation of actual yaw rate from the target yaw rate, were selected as performance measures to be minimized. The SBW control sc...

In this research work we have developed a mathematical model for predicting the success class [flop , hit , super hit] of the Indian movies, for doing this we have develop a methodology in which the historical data of each component [e. G actor , actress, director, music ]that influences the success or failure of a movie is given is due weightage and then based on multiple thresholds calculated...

Pointwise localization of individual fluorophores is a critical step in super-resolution localization microscopy and single particle tracking. Although the methods are limited by the localization errors of individual fluorophores, the pointwise localization precision has so far been estimated using theoretical best case approximations that disregard, for example, motion blur, defocus effects an...

trichomoniasis, the most widespread sexually transmitted disease is caused by trichomonas vaginalis. this parasite is site specific for the genitourinary tract and recruitment of macrophages as well as polymorphonuclear nutrophils (pmn) to the site of infection is the first line of defense as a component of non-specific resistance and immunity. in this study, balb/c mice were infected with 10 i...

This is a philosophical ‘position paper’, starting from the observation that we have an intuitive grasp of a family of related concepts of “possibility”, “causation” and “constraint” which we often use in thinking about complex mechanisms, and perhaps also in perceptual processes, which according to Gibson are primarily concerned with detecting positive and negative affordances, such as support...

This paper presents an in-depth analysis of properties of patterns, generated by the Recursive Auto-Associative Memory, based on the idea that representational features can be detected by a classification network. The intension of this analysis is to examine the actual reasons for the success of connectionist processes acting on super-positional activity vectors generated in the fashion describ...
