Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a part-based image representation method. It comes from the intuitive idea that entire face image can be constructed by combining several parts. In this paper, we propose a framework for face recognition by finding localized, part-based representations, denoted “Iterative weighted non-smooth non-negative matrix factorization” (IWNS-NMF). A new cost fun...

S. cerevisiae chromosome III encodes 11 autonomously replicating sequence (ARS) elements that function as chromosomal replicators. The essential 11-bp ARS consensus sequence (ACS) that binds the origin recognition complex (ORC) has been experimentally defined for most of these replicators, but not for ARS318 (HMR-I), which is one of the HMR silencers. In this study, we performed a comprehensive...

We present a novel approach to segmenting a quasiperiodic multi-parameter physiological signal in the presence of noise and transient corruption. We use Weighted Time Warping (WTW), to combine the partially correlated signals. We then use the relationship between the channels and the repetitive morphology of the time series to partition it into quasiperiodic units by matching it against a const...

Using the GREET model and WTW system, compare analyse carbon emissions of fuel-light vehicles (E10, liquefied natural gas) new energy (pure electric vehicles, hybrid plug-in hydrogen energy) during entire life cycle automobiles pollutant under different power structures. The conclusions two models, number emission factors, contribution various links upstream emissions, vehicle life, light mater...

in this paper, we extend some propositions of banachalgebras into module actions and establish the relationships betweentopological centers of module actions. we introduce some newconcepts as                         -property and -property for banach modules and obtain some conclusions inthe topological center of module actions and arens regularity of banachalgebras.

The traditional subspace-based approaches to segmentation (often referred to as multi-body factorization approaches) provide spatial clustering/segmentation by grouping together points moving with consistent motions. We are exploring a dual approach to factorization, i.e., obtaining temporal clustering/segmentation by grouping together frames capturing consistent shapes. Temporal cuts are thus ...

I review the known approaches to two-body nonleptonic B meson decays, including factorization assumption, modified factorization assumption, QCD factorization, and perturbative QCD factorization. Important phenomenological aspects of these approaches are emphasized.
