Curvilinear structures are common in medical imaging, which typically require dedicated processing techniques. We present a new structure to process these, that we call the polygonal path image, denoted (see text for symbol). We derive from (see text for symbol) some curvilinear structure enhancement and analysis algorithms. We show that (see text for symbol) has some interesting properties: it...

Frequent term based text clustering is a text clustering technique, which uses frequent term set and dramatically decreases the dimensionality of the document vector space, thus especially addressing: very high dimensionality of the data and very large size of the databases. Frequent Term based Clustering algorithm (FTC) has shown significant efficiency comparing to some well known text cluster...

Monolayer FeSe films grown on SrTiO3 (STO) substrate show superconducting gap-opening temperatures ([Formula: see text]) which are almost an order of magnitude higher than those of the bulk FeSe and are highest among all known Fe-based superconductors. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy observed "replica bands" suggesting the importance of the interaction between FeSe electrons and STO p...

Mule: MULtilingual Enhancement to GNU Emacs handles not only ASCII characters (7 bits) and ISO Latin-1 (8 bits), but also Greek, Cyrillic, He-brew, Thai, Vietnamese (8 bits), Japanese, Chinese, Korean (16 bits) coded in the ISO2022 standard and its variants (e.g. EUC, Compound Text). A text buffer of Mule holds a mixture of these languages. As for inputting, Mule provides various input methods ...

This paper proposes a novel method for document enhancement. The method is based on the combination of two state-of-the-art filters through the construction of a mask. The mask is applied to a TV (Total Variation) regularized image where background noise has been reduced. The masked image is then filtered by NLmeans (Non Local Means) which reduces the noise in the text areas located by the mask...

This paper presents a methodology for the enhancement of a hypertext version of a textbook. The enhancement over the textual version of the textbook is achieved by automatically inserting links between text excerpt of the textbook and item in the subject index produced by the author of the textbook. These links enable accessing parts of the textbook that have not been speci cally indexed by the...

An aluminum bow-tie nano-antenna is combined with the resonance Raman effect in the deep ultraviolet to dramatically increase the sensitivity of Raman spectra to a small volume of material, such as benzene used here. We further demonstrate gradient-field Raman peaks for several strong infrared modes. We achieve a gain of [Formula: see text] in signal intensity from the near field enhancement du...

This paper presents a novel approach to Chinese word segmentation (CWS) that attempts to utilize global information (GI) such as co-occurrence of sub-sequences and outputs of unsupervised segmentation in the whole text for further enhancement of the state-of-the-art performance of conditional random fields (CRF) learning. In the existing work of CWS, supervised and unsupervised learning seldom ...

In this paper, an analysis of the accuracy-enhancement for the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method applied to one-dimensional scalar nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws is carried out. This requires analyzing the divided difference of the errors for the DG solution. We therefore first prove that the [Formula: see text]-th order [Formula: see text] divided difference of the DG error in the [Fo...

Abstract Solid solution $${\text{G}}{{{\text{d}}}_{{2 - x}}}{\text{L}}{{{\text{i}}}_{x}}{\text{Z}}{{{\text{r}}}_{2}}{{{\text{O}}}_{{7 x}}}$$ with a pyrochlore structure is synthesized for the first time. The cationic composition confirmed via chemical analysis and nuclear reactions. It found that stoichiometry respect to lithium retained up 1100°C. lattice parameter diminishes in homogeneity ra...
