In studying the case studies of traditional architectures according to Christopher Alexander’s theory about “the nature of order” and the fifteen fundamental properties introduced, it is important to note that the ontology of the theory is based on human’s indigenous feeling about architecture, which subsequently implies these kind of studies to be based on people’s cognitive images induced fro...

as the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. this processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...

In this article, mutual relations between Haar and ReedMuller spectral and functional domains are presented. The new relations apply to any size of the transform matrices in the form of layered vertical and horizontal Kronecker matrices. They allow the direct conversions between Haar and Reed-Muller functions and their corresponding spectra.

We examine some implications of Kropotkin’s seminal work on mutual aid as a factor evolution to analyze how non-competitive life relations are understood in current biological theories. distinguish two research lines deriving from his work: one them studies intraspecific altruism and selfishness, the other is focused interspecific symbiotic relations. Furthermore, we use example pregnancy vivip...

In this paper, we generalize the fundamental relation between the derivative of the mutual information and the minimum mean squared error (MMSE) to multiuser setups. We prove that the derivative of the mutual information with respect to the signal to noise ratio (SNR) is equal to the MMSE plus a covariance induced due to the interference, quantified by a term with respect to the cross correlati...
