Abstract:

This thesis aims at investigating a new approach to document analysis based on the idea of structural patterns in XML vocabularies. My work is founded on the belief that authors do naturally converge to a reasonable use of markup languages and that extreme, yet valid instances are rare and limited. Actual documents, therefore, may be used to derive classes of elements (patterns) persisting across documents and distilling the conceptualization of the documents and their components, and may give ground for automatic tools and services that rely on no background information (such as schemas) at a

Abstract:

Significant challenges in water resources management arise because of the ever-increasing pressure on the world’s heavily exploited and limited water resources. These stressors include demographic growth, intensification of agriculture, climate variability, and climate change. These challenges to water resources are usually tackled using a top-down approach, which suffers from many limitations including the use of a limited set of climate change scenarios, the lack of methodology to rank these scenarios, and the lack of credibility, particularly on extremes.

This thesis addresses the complexities in the design of System of Systems, by providing a flexible, case independent method to analyse and rank the alternatives that are capable of performing the desired missions or operations assigned by decision makers. Although its methods involve only low-fidelity models, these proved to be the best choice as the design space created and, consequently, the number of analysis grow explosively with the increase of available options to perform the required tasks. This is due to the combinatory approach used in the generation of the design space. Another goal

In this thesis we use methodologies that are grounded on a ``bottom-up'' approach, denoting the importance of considering the emergence of the aggregate economic behavior from the interaction of heterogeneous economic agents.

The work on the multi-country model allows us to examine the macroeconomic implications of joining a union for two countries in different economic scenarios. Our mai

Numerous demand or supply management options are available, from which adaptation measures need to be selected in a context of high uncertainty of future conditions.

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>資訊科學系<br>87<br>A bottom-up approach to image document analysis and rearrangement is proposed in this study. First, an edge detection algorithm and a region-growing algorithm are proposed to extract the basic blocks. Two advantages can be obtained by employing these algorithms. First, the distortion effect caused by printing or scanning can be avoided. Second, these techniques are faster than color-quantization techniques. After basic block extraction, several features are used to classify extracted blocks into text blocks and graphic blocks. Some improved methods for merging te

Abstract:

As the world’s population increases, the demand for energy also grows. The strain on our limited resources of fossil fuels is unsustainable in the long term. An alternative, renewable method of energy generation must be implemented. Solar energy has good potential as an environmentally sound, unlimited energy source, but solar devices are not yet able to efficiently store energy for later use. A device has been proposed which uses direct sunlight to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen can then be harvested and stored as fuel, solving the question of how to effectively store ener

Abstract:

This thesis proposes a methodology for the design of man-machine interfaces by combining top-down and bottom-up processes in vision. From a computational perspective, we propose that the scientific-cognitive question of combining top-down and bottom-up knowledge is similar to the engineering question of labeling a training set in a supervised learning problem. We investigate these questions in the realm of facial analysis. We propose the use of a linear morphable model (LMM) for representing top-down structure and use it to model various facial variations such as mouth shapes and expre

Every sliced image of digital model named light mask were be indicated on LCD panel. The UV light from light source(405nm±5nm) passed through light mask on LCD panel and cured the surface of resin so that the thin resin would attach on platform. Repeated the above process, it could made a resin impression and finally measured the product with coordinate measuring machine. The LCD printer assemble by this

Abstract:

<p>Proteins fold into well-defined three-dimensional structures to carry out their biological functions which involve non-covalent interactions with other cellular molecules. Knowledge about the thermodynamic properties of proteins and protein-ligand complexes is essential for answering fundamental biological questions and drug or biomarker discovery. Recently, chemical labeling strategies have been combined with mass spectrometry methods to generate thermodynamic information about protein folding and ligand binding interactions. The work in this thesis is focused on the development and appl

Abstract:

This dissertation investigates selected empirical and theoretical aspects of land-use and land-cover change (LUCC) in exurban areas. Two challenges – observation and monitoring of LUCC, and spatially explicit modeling, are addressed using three main approaches – measuring, reviewing and agent-based modeling (ABM). All of these approaches focus on LUCC at the individual household level, investigating how micro-scale elements interact to influence macro-scale functional patterns—bottom-up analysis. First, the temporal change of the quantity and pattern of land-cover types within exurban resid

Abstract:

A century of hypotheses concerning Paleotlithic cave use has focused either on individual activities (such as vision quests or shamanistic visits) or group activities such as initiations. This thesis proposes and tests systematic criteria for assessing whether painted caves were locations of group or individual ritual activity in four caves in the Dordogne Region of Southwest France (Bernifal, Font-de-Gaume, Combarelles, and Villars). Resolving this issue provides an important foundation for examining more complex questions such as the exclusivity/inclusivity of groups using caves and their po
