The use of non-telecentric imaging systems in quantitative phase digital holographic microscopy introduces strong inaccuracies. We show that even negligible errors in the radius and center of curvature of the remaining quadratic phase factor introduce big errors in the numerical phase measurements. The errors depend on the position of the object in the field-of-view. However, when a telecentric...

Fault diagnosis is crucial for ensuring the safe operation of complex engineering systems. These systems often exhibit hybrid behaviors, therefore, model-based diagnosis methods have to be based on hybrid system models. Most previous work in hybrid systems diagnosis has focused either on parametric or discrete faults. In this paper, we develop an integrated approach for hybrid diagnosis of para...

An important step in plant breeding programs is identification of parents that are geneticallydistant from each other, to find crossing combinations with better prospects of hybrid vigor. Thepotential of identifying genetically distant parents depends on genetic diversity of population. 58 linesof rice from diverse origins have been employed to study genetic variation in order to identify themo...

The article analyzes the essential features of concept "hybrid war", among which material and informational components are separately highlighted; named elements this class. It is substantiated that construction practical importance, since it depends on how state perceives hybrid threats reacts to them.
