New antenna matrices for both scalar and vector measurement of microwave interferograms for the frequency 2.45 GHz were developed and used for an analysis of sources of measurement errors. Influence of mutual coupling between individual antennas in an antenna matrix on a measurement of microwave interferograms, particularly on a measurement of interferogram minimum values, was studied. Simulati...

Many algorithms have been developed to find sparse representation over redundant dictionaries or transform. This paper presents a novel method on compressive sensing (CS)-based image compression using sparse basis on CDF9/7 wavelet transform. The measurement matrix is applied to the three levels of wavelet transform coefficients of the input image for compressive sampling. We have used three di...

Compressive sensing can minimize the collection of redundant data in the acquisition step. However, it requires a huge amount of storage and creates a tremendous computation burden due to the size of random measurement matrix in compressive sensing theory for big data collection. The separable compressive sensing theory uses two-dimensional separable random measurement matrixes instead of a hug...

Polymer-clay nano-composite materials, in which nano-meter thick layers of clay dispersed in polymer matrix, have generally higher mechanical properties than normal polymeric materials. A new three-dimensional unit cell model has been developed for modeling three constituent phases including inclusion, interphase and matrix. The total elastic modulus of nano-composite is evaluated.  Numerical r...

Many computer vision problems (e.g. the estimation of the fundamental matrix, the homography matrix, or camera calibration as well as the factorization method) belong to the class of subspace problems which are well-known in signal processing. They essentially consist in dividing a vector space into a lower dimensional data space and an orthogonal error space, based on the information available...

different amounts of nanoclay were incorporated into the acrylic resin matrix at 0, 1, 3, and 5 wt.% loadings. the coatings were applied on low carbon steel plates. optical microscopy, sedimentation test, transmission electron microscopy, and x-ray diffraction were employed to investigate the dispersion of nanoclay in matrix. the corrosion resistance of coatings was evaluated by electrochemical...
