We present a novel joint nonuniform illumination estimation and deblurring method for bar code signals based on a penalized nonlinear squares objective function. The objective function is based on the proper parameterization of a bar code signal and nonuniform illumination as well as a regularization on the illumination using a smoothness penalty. By the minimization of the objective function, ...

Ravikanth Pappu Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Laboratory Spatial Imaging Group 20 Ames Street Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. An novel algorithm for computing holographic fringe patterns based on nonuniform sampling is described. We show both analytically and via simulation that nonuniform sampling reduces the number of samples required to repr...

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in the theory and design of filter bank transceivers due to their superior frequency response. In many applications, it is desired to have transceivers that can support multiple services with different incoming data rates and different quality-of-service requirements. Tomeet these requirements, we can either do resource allocation or design ...

In parameterized complexity there are three natural definitions of fixed-parameter tractability called strongly uniform, weakly uniform and nonuniform fpt. Similarly, there are three notions of subexponential time, yielding three flavours of the exponential time hierarchy (ETH) stating that 3Sat is not solvable in subexponential time. It is known that ETH implies that p-Clique is not fixed-para...

This paper is concerned with a discontinuous initial value problem for a dispersive hyperbolic equation where the dispersive term of the equation contains a large parameter. In the case of an equation with constant coefficients the initial value problem can be solved exactly leading to an integral representation which is expanded asymptotically. Nonuniform and uniform asymptotic expansions are ...
