In this present paper, the main aim of the authors are to present extended k-gamma, k-beta functions and extended k-beta distribution where k > 0. These newly defined functions are the generalized forms of the extended gamma, beta functions and extended beta distribution. Also, we further generalize the said functions and some of their properties.

A new radiation scheme is proposed that uses the correlated-k distribution (CKD) method. The definition of the k-distribution function, the transformation between frequency space and k space, and the upper limit of the absorption coefficient in cumulative probability space (CPS) are discussed. The corresponding relation between each interval in CPS and the heating rate profile provides a method...

Ship detection and classification with space-borne SAR has many potential applications within the maritime surveillance, fishery activity management, monitoring ship traffic, and military security. While ship detection techniques with SAR imagery are well established, ship classification is still an open issue. One of the main reasons may be ascribed to the difficulties on acquiring the require...

AN APPROACH TO ANALYZING HISTOLOGY SEGMENTATIONS USING SHAPE DISTRIBUTIONS Jasper Zhang David E. Breen, Ph. D. Histological images are the key ingredients in medical diagnosis and prognosis in today’s medical field. They are imagery acquired by analysts from microscopy to determine the cellular structure and composition of a patient’s biopsy. This thesis provides an approach to analyze the hist...

The multilook polarimetric maximum likelihood classifier based on the Wishart distribution supposes no variation of the backscattering of the underlying scene. For clutters verifying the « product model », we here present the use of a K-distribution and compare this classifier to the one based on the Wishart distribution. A simple way to obtain a full polarimetric filter by filtering a set of a...
