In Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention – MICCAI 1999, C. Taylor and A. Colchester (eds.), vol. 1679 of Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 1999, pp. 210–217. Abstract. Interpolation is required in many medical image processing operations. From sampling theory, it follows that the ideal interpolation kernel is the sinc function, which is of infinite...

A fully Sinc-Galerkin method for solving advection-di usion equations subject to arbitrary radiation boundary conditions is presented. This procedure gives rise to a discretization which has it's most natural representation in the form of a Sylvester system where the coe cient matrix for the temporal discretization is full. The word \full" often implies a computationally more complex method com...

We present a numerical method for approximating an indefinite integral by the double exponential sinc method. The approximation error of the proposed method with N integrand function evaluations is O(exp(−c1N/ log(c2N))) for a reasonably wide class of integrands, including those with endpoint singularities. The proposed method compares favorably with the existing formulas based on the ordinary ...

There are few techniques available to numerically solve sixth-order boundary-value problems with two-point boundary conditions. In this paper we show that the Sinc-Galerkin method is a very effective tool in numerically solving such problems. The method is then tested on examples with homogeneous and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions and a comparison with the modified decomposition method is m...

In this paper, a numerical procedure for solving a class of nonlinear VolterraFredholm integral equations is presented. The method is based upon the globally defined sinc basis functions. Properties of the sinc procedure are utilized to reduce the computation of the nonlinear integral equations to some algebraic equations. Illustrative examples are included to demonstrate the validity and appli...

Some properties of sinc-approximations of continuous functions on a segment are studied. For the first time, the sinc-approximations arose in the work of Pleynet. Later, in connection with developments in signals coding theory, E. Borel and E. T. Whittaker introduced the notions of a cardinal function and a truncated cardinal function, the restriction of which to [0, π] looks like this:

Sinc-Galerkin method based upon double exponential transformation for solving Troesch's problem was given in this study. Properties of the Sinc-Galerkin approach were utilized to reduce the solution of nonlinear two-point boundary value problem to same nonlinear algebraic equations, also, the matrix form of the nonlinear algebraic equations was obtained.The error bound of the method was found. ...

Up to now, no consensus exists about the electronic nature of phosphorus (P) as donor for SiO2-embedded silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs). Here, we report on hybrid density functional theory (h-DFT) calculations of P in the SiNC/SiO2 system matching our experimental findings. Relevant P configurations within SiNCs, at SiNC surfaces, within the sub-oxide interface shell and in the SiO2 matrix were ev...

A critical procedure in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Interferometric (InSAR) processing was studied: SAR image coregistration. Two pairs of ERS-1/2 SAR tandem data, representing diverse terrain types and different baselines, were used in this research. The commonly used traditional SAR image coregistration algorithms were addressed and tested; the computationally intensive algorithms were exa...
