Abstract:
An efficient super resolution algorithm based on edge direction is proposed based on the dimensional reduction of color images and 3 types of edge direction. The basic idea is to reduce image – especially color image – dimensions and to interpolate pixels by using 3 simple edge directions – vertical, horizontal, and diagonal. The proposed algorithm conceivably eliminate more color artifacts than Bicubic. The results of experiments using 30 natural images confirm that PSNR of the proposed method achieve the same quality as Fast Curvature Based Interpolation (FCBI). We confirmed that computation

Abstract:
We prepared cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) films with broadband reflective properties by admixing organic dye UV-327 into inorganic zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs), utilizing the principle of pitch distribution from a large to a small gradient along the film thickness direction, leading to broadband reflection. ZnO NPs are poorly dispersed and easy to gather, but they do not decompose easily. The addition of UV-327 makes up for the above shortcomings. UV-327 is an organic compound with good compatibility and dispersion with liquid crystal systems. Therefore, we used the method of mixing t

Abstract:
For the wide application of polymer electrolyte fuel cells, durability of more than 50,000 hours is necessary. Chemical degradation of the perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) membrane electrolyte is one of the degradation factors. Hydrogen peroxide generated from crossover gas reacts with impurities, and the resulting radicals break the chemical bonds in the electrolyte membrane. To quench the radicals, cerium ions are added to the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) as a radical quencher. However, cerium ions are known to move in the in-plane direction due to the humidity gradient during fuel cell op

Structural durability is the main focus of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) development which is affected by the thermal stress caused by considerable CTE mismatch between components and thermal gradient. In this paper we investigate the thermal stress intensity factor for mode I, mode II and mode III of positive electrode-electrolyte-negative electrode (PEN) at room temperature and steady stage for an initial crack size of 10 μm. A commercial finite element analysis (FEA) was used to find the highly stressed regions in PENs and calculate the thermal stress intensity factors. The stress distribu

Cell migration is crucial for many physiological functions such as wound healing, immuno-response and carcinogenesis. In this study an one-dimensional model of migration of fibroblasts was developed by modeling and integrating five subcellular processes, namely, actin protrusion, focal adhesion formation, stress fiber formation, polarization and retraction. The direction of migration was determined by polarization, which was related to direction of the stiffness gradient of the substrate.

Abstract:
Silver of 3N purity was deformed at room temperature by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) using three passes of route A. The global and local texture were investigated by neutron diffraction and high-energy synchrotron radiation, respectively. The texture is characterized by typical simple shear components of fcc metals which differently deviate from their ideal positions. Local texture measurements reveal that the intensity and inclination of the texture components with respect to the extrusion direction depend on the distance from the top of the extruded bar and change from pass to pass.

Conventional 3D magnetic inversion methods are based on the assumption that there is no remanent magnetization, and the inversion is run for magnetic susceptibility only. This approach is well-suited to targeting mineralization; however, it ignores the situation where the direction of magnetization of the rock formations is different from the direction of the induced magnetic field. We present a novel method of recovering a spatial distribution of magnetization vector within the rock formation based on joint inversion of airborne gravity gradiometry (AGG) and total magnetic intensity (TMI) dat

Observations by a 7x7-beam imaging riometer in Kilpisjärvi, Finland (~66° MLAT) of the drifting cosmic noise absorption (CNA) structures in the morning sector near the zonal drift reversals are presented. The examination of the absorption intensity images revealed several regions with enhanced CNA (absorption patches) slowly drifting through the riometer field of view (FoV). The absorption patches were found to vary in shape, orientation (for elongated arc-like patches), and drift direction. The latter was calculated from the regression lines to positions of the absorption maxima in

Crystallographic textures in thin polycrystalline films typically exhibit a rotational symmetry,i.e.they occur as a fibre texture with the texture pole being orientated in the direction of the substrate normal. As a further characteristic of thin-film textures, it was often observed that the degree of preferred orientation increases with increasing thickness. It is shown in this work how a fibre texture gradient may be modelled in kinematical X-ray diffraction and which effects it has on the intensity mapping of theIHKLreflection, when theHKLpole is the fibre axis.

On the surface of the layer, a beam consisting of leakage generated during the waveguide is emitted. It generates an intensity gradient image for the waveguide direction.

Abstract. We discuss a new phenomenon of turbulent thermal diffusion associated with turbulent transport of aerosols in the atmosphere and in laboratory experiments. The essence of this phenomenon is the appearance of a nondiffusive mean flux of particles in the direction of the mean heat flux, which results in the formation of large-scale inhomogeneities in the spatial distribution of aerosols that accumulate in regions of minimum mean temperature of the surrounding fluid. This effect of turbulent thermal diffusion was detected experimentally. In experiments turbulence was generated by two os

Spatially polarization modulation has been proven to be an efficient and simple method for polarization measurement. Since the polarization information is encoded in the intensity distribution of the modulated light, the task of polarization measurement can be treated as the image processing problem, while the pattern of the light is captured by a camera. However, classical image processing methods could not meet the increasing demand of practical applications due to their poor computational efficiency.

Existing infrared small target detection methods often fail due to limited exploitation of spatiotemporal information, leading to missed detections and false alarms.

In the temporal domain, we introduce Temporal Regional Contrast (TRC), the first method to quantify target-background dissimilarity through adaptive region-
