In this paper, we propose a robust image super resolution algorithm, which aims to maximize the overall visual quality of super resolution results. We consider a good super resolution algorithm to be fidelity preserving, image detail enhancing and smooth. Accordingly, we define perception-based measures for these visual qualities. Based on these quality measures, we formulate image super resolu...

In this paper, we propose a robust image super-resolution algorithm, which aims to maximize the overall visual quality of super-resolution results. We consider a good super-resolution algorithm to be fidelity preserving, image detail enhancing and smooth. Accordingly, we define perception-based measures for these visual qualities. Based on these quality measures, we formulate image super-resolu...

Increased energy efficiency is one of the most effective ways to achieve climate change mitigation. This study aims to evaluate the energy efficiency of seventeen countries. The evaluation is based on an integrated method that combines the super slack-based (super SBM) model and the Malmquist productivity index (MPI) to investigate the energy efficiency of seventeen countries during the period ...

In this paper, a super-optimal pairing based on the Weil pairing is proposed with great efficiency. It is the first approach to reduce the Miller iteration loop when computing the variants of the Weil pairing. The super-optimal pairing based on the Weil pairing is computed rather fast, while it is slightly slower than the previous fastest pairing on the corresponding elliptic curves.

In this current study a generalized super-efficiency model is first proposed for ranking extreme efficient decision making units (DMUs) in stochastic data envelopment analysis (DEA) and then, a deterministic (crisp) equivalent form of the stochastic generalized super-efficiency model is presented. It is shown that this deterministic model can be converted to a quadratic programming model. So fa...

Measuring the effectiveness of sharia banking organizations is now even more crucial due to expanding popularity worldwide and in Indonesia particular. The ability maximize resources under their control will undoubtedly be determined by efficiency measurement. In other words, a company's productivity increase with increased efficiency. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) idea, which measures busine...

Mosaicing and super resolution are two ways to combine information from multiple frames in video sequences. Mosaicing displays the information of multiple frames in a single panoramic image. Super-resolution uses regions which appear in multiple frames to improve resolution and reduce noise. The aim of this work is constructing a high resolution mosaic from a video sequence in an efficient way....
