In this work. we take into account the non gaussian properties of textures and we propose a new approach for their characterization based on bidimensional adaptive modelisation using higher order statistics. The 2DOLRIV (Bidimensionnal Overdetermined Lattice Recursive Instrumental Variable) algorithm allows accurate texture model estimation. Sets of ZD-AR coefficients obtained from the 2D refle...

In this paper, the lattice vehicular model, which is in the form the lattice Boltzmann equation is directly derived from the Boltzmann equation. It is shown that the lattice Boltzmann equation is a special discretized form of the Boltzmann equation. A 3-bit approximation, which describe uncongested traffic flow, for the discretization of the Boltzmann equation in both time and phase space is di...

A new approach to derivation of generalized mean-field approximations for lattice spin models is presented. It is shown that it can give a number of methods, including the DMRG method, that can be used to find generally inhomogeneous solutions of 2D classical lattice problems. A method, closely related to the DMRG method but without necessity to perform any renormalization, is derived, yielding...

We provide a general classification of supersymmetric lattice gauge theories that can be obtained from orbifolding of theories with four and eight supercharges. We impose at least one preserved supercharge on the lattice and Lorentz invariance in the naive continuum limit. Starting with four supercharges, we obtain one two-dimensional lattice gauge theory, identical to the one already given in ...

We consider lattice versions of Maxwell's equations and of the equation that governs the propagation of acoustic waves in a random medium. The vector nature of electromagnetic waves is fully taken into account. The medium is assumed to be a small perturbation of a periodic one. We prove rigorously that localized eigenstates arise in a vicinity of the edges of the gaps in the spectrum. A key ing...
