The prior statistics of object colors is of much interest because extensive statistical investigations of reflectance spectra reveal highly non-uniform structure in color space common to several very different databases. This common structure is due to the visual system rather than to the statistics of environmental structure. Analysis involves an investigation of the proper sample space of spe...

As devices become more susceptible to transient faults that can affect program correctness, processor designers will increasingly compensate by adding hardware or software redundancy. Proposed redundancy techniques and those currently in use are generally applied uniformly to a structure despite non-uniformity in the way errors within the structure manifest themselves in programs. This uniform ...

In this paper, we propose a novel method to test if a non-uniform filter bank can achieve perfect reconstruction via a tree structure. The set of decimators is first sorted in an ascending order. A non-uniform filter bank can achieve perfect reconstruction via a tree structure if and only if some or all of the channels corresponding to the maximum decimation ratio can be grouped into one channe...

in this paper, eringen’s nonlocal elasticity and timoshenko beam theories are implemented to analyze the bending vibration for non-uniform nano-beams.  the governing equations and the boundary conditions are derived using hamilton’s principle. a generalized differential quadrature method (gdqm) is utilized for solving the governing equations of non-uniform timoshenko nano-beam for pinned-pinned...

in this paper the author considers a general method, based on time domain samples for spectral manipulation of time limited signals. first, the original signal is divided into some frames in the time domain. then, by presenting a suitable theoretical and computational algorithm, and using a method for improving the speed of convergence, we find the local bandwidth of each frame; thereby, each f...

Periscope is a distributed automatic online performance analysis system for large scale parallel systems. It consists of a set of analysis agents distributed on the parallel machine. This article presents the support in Periscope for analyzing inefficiencies in the memory access behavior of the applications. It applies data structure specific analysis and is able to identify performance bottlen...
