Comparison between multidimensional persistent Betti numbers is often based on the multidimensional matching distance. While this metric is rather simple to define and compute by considering a suitable family of filtering functions associated with lines having a positive slope, it has two main drawbacks. First, it forgets the natural link between the homological properties of filtrations associ...

This study examines the interaction between two types of synesthesia: ordinal linguistic personification (OLP; the involuntary association of animate qualities such as gender/personality to linguistic units such as letters/numbers/days) and grapheme-color synesthesia (the involuntary association of colors to letters and/or numbers). By examining both variants in the same individual we aim to: (...

We prove an exponential approximation for the law of approximate occurrence of typical patterns for a class of Gibbsian sources on the lattice Z, d ≥ 2. From this result, we deduce a law of large numbers and a large deviation result for the the waiting time of distorted patterns. Key-words: Gibbs measures, approximate matching, exponential law, lossy data compression, law of large numbers, larg...

We have developed YFilter, an XML filtering system that provides fast, on-the-fly matching of XMLencoded data to large numbers of query specifications containing constraints on both structure and content. YFilter encodes path expressions using a novel NFA-based approach that enables highly-efficient, shared processing for large numbers of XPath expressions. In this paper, we provide a brief tec...

Selecting salient points from two or more images for computing correspondence is a well studied problem in image analysis. This paper describes a new and effective technique for selecting these tiepoints using condition numbers, with application to image registration and mosaicking. Condition numbers are derived for point-matching methods based on minimizing windowed objective functions for 1) ...

bilevel linear programming  is a decision making problem with a two-level decentralized organization. the textquotedblleft leadertextquotedblright~ is in the upper level and the textquotedblleft followertextquotedblright, in the lower. making a decision at one level affects that at the other one. in this paper, bilevel linear programming  with inexact parameters has been studied and a method is...

Commentary is the explication of a particular game or an event. In cricket, the commentary plays an important role in entertaining the viewers. Without commentary the game won’t be much effective. The system proposes a solution which is an AI based approach that generates playby-play commentary and automated color commentary from any video clip given, by extracting different features. For gener...

Matching logic was recently proposed as a unifying for specifying and reasoning about static structure dynamic behavior of programs. In matching logic, patterns specifications are used to uniformly represent mathematical domains (such numbers Boolean values), datatypes, transition systems, whose properties can be reasoned using one fixed proof system. this paper we give tutorial logic. We use s...

Does number–word structure have a long-lasting impact on transcoding? Contrary to English, German number words comprise decade–unit inversion (e.g., vierundzwanzig is literally translated as four-and-twenty). To investigate the mental representation of numbers, we tested effect visual and linguistic–morphological characteristics development verbal–visual transcoding. In longitudinal cross-lingu...

Many researches are about optimizing schemes for packet classification and matching filters to increase the performance of many network devices such as firewalls and QoS routers. Most of the proposed algorithms do not process dynamically the packets and give no specific interest in the skewness of the traffic. In this paper, we conceive a set of selfadjusting tree filters by combining the schem...
