variations in lighting are a problem for visual systems. in the current research, a new thresholding method using a 3d euclidian elliptical surface was defined and applied for plant detection purposes. the results showed that this method had lower type i error, type ii error, total error and mean square error compared with those of conventional segmentation methods. the method was evaluated for...

The authors give a consistent affirmative response to a question of Juhász, Soukup and Szentmiklóssy: If GCH fails, there are (many) extraresolvable, not maximally resolvable Tychonoff spaces. They show also in ZFC that for ω < λ κ , no maximal λ-independent family of λ-partitions of κ is ω-resolvable. In topological language, that theorem translates to this: A dense, ω-resolvable subset of a s...
