I review the main steps made so far towards a detailed (semi) analytical model for the hierarchical clustering of bound virialized objects (i.e., haloes) in the gravitational instability scenario. I focus on those models relying on the spherical collapse approximation which have led to the most complete description. The work is divided in two parts: a first one dealing with the mass function of...

The organizational structure is usually defined using the best experience and there is a minimum of formal approach involved. This paper shows the possibilities of the theory of concept analysis that can help to understand organizational structure based on solid mathematical foundations. This theory is extended by the concept of knowledge sharing and diversity that enables to evaluate the organ...

With regard to the importance of scientific decision-making in power plants prioritization to produce electrical energy (power) from renewable energies (purified), in this paper, research with specialists opinions with respond to questionnaires provided upon three efficient operational criterion in position of three presented power plant in country which used wind, solar water energies for prod...

This paper introduces a novel shape representation which performs shape analysis in a hierarchical fashion using Gaussian and Laplacian pyramids. A background on hierarchical shape analysis is given along with a detailed explanation of the hierarchical method, and results are shown on natural contours. A comparison is performed between the new method and our proposed approach using Point Distri...

|A self-organizing framework for object recognition is described. We describe a hierarchical database structure for image retrieval. The SHOSLIF (Self-Organizing Hierarchical Optimal Subspace Learning and Inference Framework) system uses the theories of optimal linear projection for automatic optimal feature selection and a hierarchical structure to achieve a logarithmic retrieval complexity. A...
