An l∞ norm based Source Separation Method has recently been introduced [1, 2], with the corresponding subgradient based algorithm that has a simple update rule. In this article, we propose a moving window modification to this algorithm, where instead of a long fixed window, a shorter length moving window is used. The simulation results for different blind source separation setups suggest that a...

Abstract : An $l_\infty$ norm based Source Separation Method has recently been introduced, with the corresponding subgradient based algorithm that has a simple update rule. In this article, we propose a moving window modification to this algorithm, where instead of a long fixed window, a shorter length moving window is used. The simulation results for different blind source separation setups su...

Kriging is a spatial prediction method, which can predict at any location and return a measure of prediction confidence (the kriging standard error). There exist many variations of kriging, some of which can be complex, especially those that allow many of its parameters to vary spatially. To calibrate such a kriging model and to be able to interpret its results can therefore be quite daunting. ...

In this paper, a "Moving Window" scheme for detecting lanes and obstacles from the images captured by a CCD camera in an automobile is proposed. Processing the input dynamic images in real time requires high performance hardware as well as efficient software. In order to relieve these requirements for detecting lanes and obstacles from the images in real time, a "Moving Window" scheme is propos...

Forest fires have profound impacts on the spatial distribution of vegetation type and density. This research analyzes the impacts of the 2002 Ponil Fire in New Mexico on landscape patterns using a moving-window analysis of landscape metrics. Categorically derived landscape metrics and a measure of fire severity—the Normalized Burn Ratio—are used to produce a quantitative, spatial distribution o...

The known ore deposits and mineralization trends are important key exploration criteria in mineral exploration within a specific region. Fry analysis has conventionally been considered as a suitable method to determine the mineralization trends related to linear structures. Based upon literature sources, to date, no investigation has been carried out that includes the Sensitivity Analysis of Fe...

This paper proposes implementations of the well-known traffic policing mechanisms for high speed networks. The implementations are based on a high performance development environment and are described through commented block diagrams. The considered mechanisms are Leaky Bucket with variants, Jumping Window, Triggered Jumping Window, Continuous Sliding Window, Discretized Sliding Window and Time...

An effective method for finding the relevant number (window size) and the elapsed time (window age) of recently completed projects has proven elusive in software effort estimation. Although these two parameters significantly affect the prediction accuracy, there is no effective method to stratify and sample chronological projects to improve prediction performance of software effort estimation m...
