e o When errors are clearly visible, the blockiness of some artifacts distinguishes them from th riginal image content, suggesting a way of reducing these artifacts. Presumably, the human viewer k e identifies the artifacts by assuming the image does not have 8-pixel by 8-pixel block features. Bloc dge variance, the sum of squared differences between adjacent block edge pixels, is one simple s ...

Research for ezecuting large-scale motions of mobile manipulators is described. Mobile manipulator" are mobile bases with an attached arm which function in an integrated manner. Motivation i, given for moving the arm while the base i, moving. Thi, work applies reactive control concept, to achieve this type of motion.

where it is assumed that the “resolvent” L, = (T + (l/n)l)-i, II = 1, 2,... exists and is defined at least on the range of the operator f C. Such a class of operators T includes all m-accretive operators (cf. Kato ] 5 I). The equations (G,) can be solved by a degree theory argument if we assume, among other things, that L, is compact and C is continuous and bounded, or that L, is continuous and...

It is believed that sensory functions are organized in a hierarchical and parallel manner. The sense of smell differs in several aspects from other senses: odors can immediately elicit emotional evocations, they are remembered after a long time, and they are difficult to label. This raises the question of whether odorous stimuli may be processed differently from the other sensory stimuli. New d...
