This report describes an experimental still image coder that grew out of a project in the graduate course “Advanced Video Coding” in spring 2000. The project has investigated the idea to use local orientation histograms in fractal coding. Instead of performing a correlation-like grey-level matching of image regions, the block search is made by matching feature histograms of the block contents. ...

We prove a boundary Harnack inequality for jump-type Markov processes on metric measure state spaces, under comparability estimates of the jump kernel and Urysohn-type property of the domain of the generator of the process. The result holds for positive harmonic functions in arbitrary open sets. It applies, e.g., to many subordinate Brownian motions, Lévy processes with and without continuous p...

the purpose of this study was to determine the intensity influence of perform one set half squat on vertical jump performance and muscle electrical activity in adolescent athletes. the subjects were 12 adolescent boys athletes. the subjects performed one set of dynamic half-squat using low and high intensities (li= low intensity with 40% 1rm, hi= high intensity with 80% 1rm), and a control (c) ...

This paper treats jump-diffusion processes in continuous time, with emphasis on the jump-amplitude distributions, developing more appropriate models using parameter estimation for the market in one phase and then applying the resulting model to a stochastic optimal portfolio application in a second phase. The new developments are the use of uniform jump-amplitude distributions and time-varying ...

in this research, in order to develop new relationships with reasonable accuracy for estimation of the ‎submerged hydraulic jump characteristics, a study has been conducted experimentally. experiments have ‎been done in a rectangular channel with a length of 9 m, a width of 0.5 m and a depth of 0.45 m. froude ‎numbers in these tests range from 3.5 to 11.5 and between submergence ratios of 0.1 t...

psychological and educational findings show that preschool years play a very important role in educating and developing children. one of the dimensions of development is motor development. the survey of motor performance with respect to anthropometric characteristic is of utmost importance. thus, the aim of this study was to survey the relationship between dimensional anthropometric characteris...

Jump Linear Quadratic Gaussian (JLQG) model is well studied due to its wide applications. However, JLQG with controlled jump rates are rarely researched, while the existing studies usually impose an assumption that jump rates are independent and separately controlled. In practical systems, their jump rates may not be independent of each other. In this paper, we consider a continuous-time JLQG m...

[Purpose] This study assessed the relationships between peak toe flexor muscle strength, ankle dorsiflexion range of motion, and countermovement jump height. [Subjects and Methods] Eighteen healthy volunteers participated in the study. Each participant completed tests for peak toe flexor muscle strength, ankle dorsiflexion range of motion, and countermovement jump height. [Results] The results ...

It is well known that there exist some types of the most frequent errors made by human operators during transmission of data which it is possible to detect using a code with one check symbol. We prove that there does not exist an n-T-code that can detect all single, adjacent transposition, jump transposition, twin, jump twin and phonetic errors over an alphabet that contains 0 and 1. Systems th...
