The Ponzano–Regge Model and Parametric Representation

heterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings

from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...

Parametric representation of preferences

A preference is invariant with respect to a transformation τ if its ranking of acts is unaffected by a reshuffling of the states under τ . We show that any invariant preference must be parametric: there is a unique sufficient set of parameters such that the preference ranks acts according to their expected utility given the parameters. This property holds for all non-trivial preferences, provid...

A Parametric Hybrid Model Used for Multidimensional Object Representation

A Parametric Cathment Erosion Model

The structural framework for a parametric catchment erosion model is proposed. A parameter optimization technique that provides a rational basis for the calibration of the model is developed. The adequacy of the model in representing a natural catchment is investigated.

Sparse and Independent Representation Parametric Mo

Recently methods for obtaining sparse representations of a signal using overcomplete dictionaries of waveforms have been studied, often motivated by the way the brain seems to process certain sensory signals. Algorithms have been developed using either a specific criterion to choose the waveforms occurring in the representation from a fixed dictionary, or to construct them as part of the method...
