The brain – computer interface (BCI) provides a communicational channel between human and machine. Most of these systems are based on brain activities. Brain Computer-Interfacing is a methodology that provides a way for communication with the outside environment using the brain thoughts. The success of this methodology depends on the selection of methods to process the brain signals in each pha...

This paper presents a mathematical model for the vibration analysis of a three-component piezoelectric force sensor. The cubic theory of weakly nonlinear electroelasticity is applied to the model for describing the electromechanical coupling effect in the piezoelectric sensing elements which operate in thickness-shear and thickness-stretch vibration modes. Hamilton's principle is used to derive...

ICA deals with finding linear projections in the input space along which the data shows most independence. Therefore, mutual information between the projected outputs, which are usually called the separated outputs due to links with blind source separation (BSS), is considered to be a natural criterion for ICA. Minimization of the mutual information requires primarily the estimation of this qua...

A bioinformatics method was used to analyze F/10 and G/11 xylanase basing on principle component analysis, and a model was made to classify between these two folds with an ideal result. The principle components were predicated to be secondary structures, the components were analyzed with the architecture of each family, and found comparable with (beta/alpha)(8)-barrel of F/10 xylanase and right...

Time-lapse photography, in which images are captured at a lower rate than that at which they will ultimately be played back. Classic time-lapse photography subjects are scenes. Today, most of those image sequences are collected by the thousands of Internet cameras. They typically provide outdoor views of cities, construction sites, traffic, the weather, or natural phenomena. However, Time-lapse...

Over the years a variety of methods have been introduced to remove noise from digital images, such as Gaussian filtering, anisotropic filtering, and Total Variation minimization. However, many of these algorithms remove the fine details and structure of the image in addition to the noise because of assumptions made about the frequency content of the image. It is analyzed in the way that the noi...

Of the problem areas, the domain of matching complex objects has received, by far, the most attention. This research work is concerned with the specific class of complicated objects, i.e. logo. The progress, particularly in this field, is still at extensive research work level, due to infinite varieties of shapes and classes which are used. Essentially, the algorithm proposed is based on Princi...

The aim of the present paper is to apply Sudjanto-Hassoun theory of Hebbian learning to neural independent component analysis. The basic learning theory is first recalled and expanded in order to make it suitable for a network of non-linear complex-weighted neurons; then its interpretation and application is shown in the context of blind separation of complex-valued sources. Numerical results a...

The purpose of this article for four-dimensional (4D) computed tomography (CT) is threefold. (1) A new spatiotemporal model is presented from matrix perspective with the row dimension in space and the column dimension in time, namely, Robust PCA based 4DCT model (Robust Principle Component Analysis based 4D CT). That is, instead of viewing the 4D object as a temporal collection of three-dimensi...
