We construct examples of nonresolvable generalized «-manifolds, n > 6 , with arbitrary resolution obstruction, homotopy equivalent to any simply connected, closed «-manifold. We further investigate the structure of generalized manifolds and present a program for understanding their topology. By a generalized n-manifold we will mean a finite-dimensional absolute neighborhood retract X such that ...

Many imaging applications require the acquisition of a time series of images. In conventional Fourier transformbased imaging methods, each of these images is acquired independently. As a result, one often has to sacrifice spatial resolution for temporal resolution. To address this problem, this paper extends a generalized series imaging method so that multiple references can be used to achieve ...

Using a probabilistic interpretation of an n dimensional extension of Papoulis's Generalized Sampling Theorem, an iterative algorithm has been devised for 3D reconstruction of a Lambertian surface at subpixel accuracy. The problem has been formulated as an optimization one in a Bayesian framework. The latter allows for introducing a priori information on the solution, using Markov Random Fields...

Normalized difference vegetation index and land surface temperature data, in a sample plot each from east, center and west of Nepal, from 2000 to 2015, were analyzed to identify and compare the trends of vegetation and temperature changes during the period. The data were obtained from moderate resolutions imaging spectro-radiometer. Normalized difference vegetation index charactiszes a resoluti...

We analyze the performance of a planar lens based on realistic negative index material in a generalized geometry. We demonstrate that the conventional superlens design where the lens is centered between the object and the image is not optimal from the resolution point of view, develop an analytical expression for the resolution limit of a generalized lens, use it to find the optimum lens config...

Limitation in the resolution of CCD image sensors has provided motivation to enhance the resolution of images. Super-resolution has been applied mainly to grayscale images, and producing a high-resolution color image from a single CCD sensor has not been discussed thoroughly. This work aims at producing a high-resolution color image directly from ”color mosaic” images obtained by a singleCCD wi...

the relationship between topography, land use, and topsoil moisture storage is investigated for a small catchment with undulating deep loess hilslopes in the south of the netherlands. for a period of 10 months, soil moisture profiles have been measured weekly at 15 locations throughout the catchment. a generalized additive model was employed to find relationships between the various factors inf...
