In this correspondence, we discuss periodic nonuniform sampling as described by Yen. Such a sampling scheme is more sensitive to additive white noise than uniform sampling. We give here an explicit formula for the noise amplification of periodic nonuniform sampling compared with uniform sampling.

This paper describes a method for periodic temporal super resolution, namely, reconstructing a one period image sequence with high frame-rate from a single quasi-periodic image sequence with low frame-rate. First, the periodic image sequence to be reconstructed is expressed as a manifold in the parametric eigenspace of the phase, namely, period-normalized time. Given an input image sequence, ph...

We describe and evaluate a pre-processing method based on a periodic spiral sampling of diffusion-gradient directions for high angular resolution diffusion magnetic resonance imaging. Our pre-processing method incorporates prior knowledge about the acquired diffusion-weighted signal, facilitating noise reduction. Periodic spiral sampling of gradient direction encodings results in an acquired si...

 A step-by-step algorithm for enhancement of periodic signals that are highly corrupted by additive uncorrelated white gausian noise is proposed. In each adaptation step a new parallel second-order section is added to the previous filters. Every section has only one adjustable parameter, i.e., the center frequency of the self-tuning filter. The bandwidth and the convergence factor of each secti...

We present a power spectral analysis of the Crab pulsar’s timing noise, mainly using radio measurements from Jodrell Bank taken over the period 1982-1989, an interval bounded by sparse data sampling and a large glitch. The power spectral analysis is complicated by nonuniform data sampling and the presence of a steep red power spectrum that can distort power spectra measurement by causing severe...

We study the role of the noise in the dynamics of two competing species. We consider generalized Lotka-Volterra equations in the presence of a multiplicative noise, which models the interaction between the species and the environment. The interaction parameter between the species is a random process which obeys a stochastic differential equation with a generalized bistable potential in the pres...

conclusions due to the long exposure to the loud noise during the day, hearing loss in drivers is significant. the left ear displays greater loss than the right ear. therefore, strategies to prevent hearing loss in drivers could include education, lifestyle changes and compliance issues related to hearing health, use of personal protective equipment, conducting periodic examinations and early t...

background: electronic portal imaging devices (epids) play an important role in radiation therapy portal imaging, geometric and dosimetric verifications. a successful utilization of epids for imaging and dosimetric purposes requires a reliable quality control process routine to be carried out regularly. in this study, two in-house phantoms were developed and analyzed for implementation in a qua...
