Studies of computational complementarity properties in finite state interactive automata may shed light on the nature of both quantum and classical computation. But, complementarity is difficult to test even for small-size automata. This paper introduces the concept of an observation graph of an automaton which is used as the main tool for the design of an algorithm which tests, in a uniform ma...

A new computational method for the elastic interaction between dislocations and precipitates is developed and applied to the solution of problems involving dislocation cutting and looping around precipitates. Based on the superposition principle, the solution to the dislocation–precipitate interaction problem is obtained as the sum of two solutions: (1) a dislocation problem with image stresses...

Although it is well known that people selectively attend to salient features in similarity judgment, no clear method of identifying “salient features” has been proposed. In this study, we present a new computational technique to identify salient features. First, we collected behavioral data from human participants, and this data was simulated with machine learning techniques, which determined o...

The exact knowledge of the sound field within an enclosure is essential for a number of applications in electro-acoustics. Conventional methods for the assessment of room acoustics model the sound propagation in analogy to the propagation of light. More advanced computational methods rely on the numerical solution of the wave equation. A recently presented method is based on multidimensional wa...

In this work, a modified version of the elastic bunch graph matching (EBGM) algorithm for face recognition is introduced. First, faces are detected by using a fuzzy skin detector based on the RGB color space. Then, the fiducial points for the facial graph are extracted automatically by adjusting a grid of points to the result of an edge detector. After that, the position of the nodes, their rel...

Grid computing is an accumulation of heterogeneous, dynamic resources from multiple administrative areas which are geographically distributed that can be utilized to reach a mutual end. Development of resource provisioning-based scheduling in large-scale distributed environments like grid computing brings in new requirement challenges that are not being believed in traditional distributed compu...

According to problems such as low accuracy, high error in the shearer body position, this paper proposes a new computational method combining with the information of shearer, scraper conveyor and hydraulic support in order to realize three machine positioning. Using the sensor information and staticdynamic fusion, this paper solves positioning problem of the three-dimensional in the process of ...

a meshless method namely, discrete least square method (dlsm), is presented in the paper for the solution of free surface seepage problem. in this method computational domain is discredited by some nodes and then the set of simultaneous equations are built using moving least square (mls) shape functions and least square technique. the proposed method does not need any background mesh therefore ...
