The optical sensor is composed of two eyesafe parallel laser beams operating at two different wavelengths (see Figure 1). When a vehicle passes in front of the sensor, the laser light is diffused on the surface of the vehicle. The diffused light is then focused on two photodetectors, one for each laser. We thus obtain two signals, x(t) and yet), which represent the fluctuations in time of the i...

background :pigmented villonodularsynovitis (pvns) is characterized by the presence of inflammation and hemosiderin deposition in the synovium. two forms of pvns distinguished in the literature are diffused and localized involvements. there are controversies in the literature about the surgical management of pvns. we report our experience in the management of knee pvns at a mean follow-up of 4 ...

We propose a new method of progressive transmission of continuous tone images using multi-level error diffusion method. Assuming that the pixels are ordered and the error is diffused to later pixels, multi-level error-diffused images are resolved into a multiple number of bit planes. In an image with 8 bits per pixel, the number of the bit planes that we construct is 9, and the 2-level, 3-level...

The authors consider data compression of binary error diffused images. The original contribution is using nonlinear filters to decode error-diffused images to compress them in the gray-scale domain; this gives better image quality than directly compressing the binary images. Their method is of low computational complexity and can work with any halftoning algorithm.

We study a general asymptotic behavior of critical points of a diffused interface energy with a fixed contact angle condition defined on a domain Ω ⊂ R. We show that the limit varifold derived from the diffused energy satisfies a generalized contact angle condition on the boundary under a set of assumptions.
