On the development of a Neural Radiance Field technique for tomographic reconstruction applied to flow diagnostics 

Kelly, Dustin (2024-04-25)
In this work, a novel neural implicit representation tomography algorithm based on Neural Radiance Fields is developed and demonstrated for 3D flow diagnostics. Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) originate from the computer ...

On the Development of a Volumetric Velocimetry Technique using Multiple Plenoptic Cameras 

Fahringer, Timothy Jr (2018-08-29)
Plenoptic PIV was recently introduced as a viable three-dimensional, three-component velocimetry technique based on light field cameras. One of the main benefits of this technique is its single camera configuration allowing ...

On the existence of even and k-divisible-matchings 

Moore, Emilia (2008-05-15)
The concept of an an even matching was first introduced by Billington and Hoffman. They were used to find gregarious 4-cycle decompositions of $K_{8t(a),b}$ with a and b odd. Their paper contains even matchings of type ...

On the Growth of Polynomials and Entire Functions of Exponential Type 

Harden, Lisa (2004-12-15)
Concerning the growth of a polynomial and its derivative, the following inequalities are well known as Bernstein Inequalities. max(|z|=R) |p(z)| <= max(|z|=1) |p(z)|R^n, for R >= 1, (1) max(|z|=1) |p0(z)| <= max(|z|=1) ...

On the Independence Number of Some Hypergraph 

Yang, Zechun (2018-07-10)
For integers 1 =< m < n and a prime p (we require 2 =< m when p = 2), a subset I(p^n; p^m) ={0,...,p^n-1} is described which contains no pm-term cyclic arithmetic progression modulo p^n, and which is maximal among subsets ...

On the influence of landscape-scale factors on stream ecosystems and macroinvertebrate assemblages in the southeastern USA: an examination of alternative statistical methods and case studies. 

Schneid, Brad (2015-07-23)
The influence of land cover on stream ecosystems has increasingly been the focus of research in a variety of fields, including ecology, hydrology, and engineering. Human-altered land cover can increase overland storm ...

On The Lattice Boltzmann Method: Implementation and Applications 

Jin, Kang (2008-12-15)
We studied the development and different types of the Lattice Boltzmann method. We gave several implementations. Then we presented two moving boundary treatments for the Lattice Boltzmann method, the second one is new. We ...

On the Machine Illusion 

Gong, Zhitao (2019-10-14)
In this work, we empirically study an emerging problem in the machine learning community, i.e., the adversarial samples. Specifically, we focus on the discussion within the realm of neural networks. The existence of ...

On The Number of Cylinders Touching a Sphere 

Yardimci, Osman (2019-06-14)
The kissing number problem is a packing problem in geometry where one has to fi nd the maximum number of congruent non-overlapping copies of a given body so that they can be arranged each touching a common copy. The ...

On the Relationship between Criminal History and Racial Discrimination in Labor Markets: Evidence from the Field 

Griffin, Joshua (2013-07-23)
It has been shown in the literature that any contact at all with the criminal justice system presents an individual with a significant challenge in obtaining employment. It has also been shown that African-Americans are ...

On the Robustness and Privacy of Distributed Machine Learning 

Liu, Tian (2022-07-26)
Machine learning has recently gained tremendous interest due to its capabilities in producing predictive models in a wide variety of applications, such as objective detection and recommendation services. Meanwhile, the ...

On the role of 1-LC and semi 1-LC properties in determining the fundamental group of a one point union of spaces 

Moore, Emilia (2006-05-15)
Concerning the fundamental group of spaces written as a union of two topological spaces, the result by Seifert and van Kampen is well known and frequently used. Over the years there have been various theorems published ...

On the Spectrum of Minimal Covers By Triples 

Castellana, Vincent (2006-08-15)
A Minimal Cover by Triples is an ordered pair (V,T) where V is a finite set and T is a collection of three element subsets of V with two properties. First, that every pair of elements of V appear together in at least ...

On the study of atomic and molecular processes affecting Astrophysical Plasma using high-resolution optical and UV spectroscopy 

Nemer, Ahmad (2019-06-13)
