A new implementation for minimally redundant radix-4 SRT division with the recurrence in the signed-digit format is introduced. The implementation is developed based on the comparison multiples idea. In the proposed approach, the quotient digit’s magnitude is calculated by comparing the truncated partial remainder with two limited precision multiples of the divisor. The sign is determined by in...

In this paper we address the comparison of two feature matching techniques which can be integrated in the HMAX framework. This comparison involves the originally proposed MAX technique and the histogram technique originating from Bag-of-Words literature. We have found that each of these techniques have their own field of operation. The histogram technique clearly outperforms the MAX technique w...

Introduction: The commonly used technique of radiation therapy for vulvar cancer consists of anteroposterior (AP) and posteroanterior (PA) fields. This is the first study that reports the dosimetric comparison between the AP-PA techniques and the new 3D advanced conformal technique (3D-ACT) based on the multiplicity of treatment fields in patients with squamous cell ca...

Re-representation is a mechanism for aligning non-identical structurally corresponding predicates during comparison. Re-representation is therefore a shift in the encoding of a stimulus from an initial set of elements to an altered set. For example, when comparing two analogous sentences, different verbs could be re-represented to allow a match – thereby altering construal. Re-representation is...

The gamma index is a tool that compares a dose distribution with a reference distribution by combining dose-difference and distance-to-agreement criteria. It has been widely used for ten years despite its high computational cost. This cost is due to both a search process for each reference point and the necessity to remove overestimations caused by the discrete nature of dose grids. The method ...

This paper is a continuation of our previous work [1] on the comparison of computer graphics software claiming to physically accurate global lighting simulation. Physical accuracy is the main criterion for this comparison. This work devotes to illumination maps technique. New tests and comparative methods are proposed.
