Stochastic modeling of seafloor morphology.

Stochastic Modeling of Seafloor Morphology

At scale lengths less than 100 km or so, statistical descriptions of seafloor morphology can be usefully employed to characterize processes which form and reshape abyssal hills, including ridge crest volcanism, off-axis tectonics and volcanism, mass wasting, sedimentation, and post-depositional transport. The objectives of this thesis are threefold: (1) to identify stochastic parameterizations ...

Seafloor video mapping: modeling, algorithms, apparatus

This paper discusses technique used for construction of highresolution image mosaic from a video sequence and the synchronously logged camera attitude information. It allows one to infer geometric characteristics of the imaged terrain and hence improve mosaic quality and reduce computational burden. The technique is demonstrated using numerical modeling and is applied to video data collected on...

Modeling seafloor-spreading rates through time: A comment

A Useful Family of Stochastic Processes for Modeling Shape Diffusions

 One of the new area of research emerging in the field of statistics is the shape analysis. Shape is defined as all the geometrical information of an object whose location, scale and orientation is not of interest. Diffusion in shape analysis can be studied via either perturbation of the key coordinates identifying the initial object or random evolution of the shape itself. Reviewing the f...

an investigation about the appropriate stochastic modeling framework for agricultural insurance pricing

با توجه به اینکه بیمه محصولات کشاورزی در ایران بیشتر جنبه ای حمایتی دارد و خسارات گزارش شده عموما بیش از حق بیمه های دریافت شده است، در این پایان نامه به جهت تعیین قیمت بیمه محصولات کشاورزی (گندم دیم) از فرآیندهای نوفه شلیک به عنوان مدلی مناسب استفاده شده است. بر اساس داده های صندوق بیمه کشاورزی از خسارات اعلام شده در سال زراعی 1388-1389 گندم دیم، در این پایان نامه حق بیمه خالص و ناخالص این محص...
