A motion feature-based algorithm for the detection of specular objects in natural scenes
(Sage Publications, 2012-09)Successful identification of specularities in an image can be crucial for an artificial vision system when extracting the semantic content of an image or while interacting with the environment. We developed an algorithm ... -
Targeted energy pumping using a linear complex attachment
(ISMA, 2012-09)The present paper considers the problem of realizing an effective targeted energy pumping from a linear oscillator to a plurality of ungrounded linear resonators, attached to it in parallel. Theoretical as well as numerical ... -
A confidence ellipsoid approach for measurement cost minimization under Gaussian noise
(IEEE, 2012-06)The well-known problem of estimating an unknown deterministic parameter vector over a linear system subject to additive Gaussian noise is studied from the perspective of minimizing total sensor measurement cost under a ... -
Detection of MR signal during RF excitation using a transmit array system
(ISMRM, 2012-05)Most of conventional MRI applications are based on a time interleaved approach for RF excitation and signal detection. The idea of concurrent RF excitation and reception was implemented in a few recent studies using sideband ... -
Analysis of B1 mapping by Bloch Siegert shift
(ISMRM, 2012-05)The Bloch-Siegert shift is a new phase-based B1 mapping method [1]. This method utilizes the fact that for a large off-resonance frequency, square of the B1 field magnitude is proportional to the phase. In this study, ... -
Decreasing SAR of a multi-dimensional central brightening inhomogeneity correction pulse using nonlinear gradient fields and VERSE
(ISMRM, 2012-05)To correct for B1 inhomogeneity artifacts, multi-dimensional pulses are widely used. However, such pulses increase SAR significantly. In this study, we compare, and combine two SAR reduction methods, the variable rate ... -
Damping mechanisms
(Springer, Vienna, 2014)The term damping is used to describe the means by which oscillation amplitudes are reduced through irreversible removal of vibratory energy in a mechanical system or a component. Dissipation, on the other hand, refers to ... -
Situated processing of pronominal anaphora
(Informatik Xpress 6, 1998)We describe a novel approach to the analysis of pronominal anaphora in Turkish. A computational medium which is based on situation theory is used as our implementation tool. The task of resolving pronominal anaphora is ... -

Inventory theory
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)Inventory theory is concerned with management of the quantity and timing of the replenishment of assets typically stored to satisfy future demands. In this chapter, we introduce the fundamentals of inventory theory and the ... -
Principles of feedback control
(Taylor & Francis, 2004)In this chapter, fundamental properties of feedback control are discussed with engineering applications in mind. However, feedback appears in many other disciplines, such as agriculture, biology, medicine, pharmaceutics, ... -

p-center problems
(Springer, 2015)A p-center is a minimax solution that consists in a set of p points that minimizes the maximum distance between a demand point and a closest point belonging to that set. We present different variants of that problem. We ... -

Parallelization of Sparse Matrix Kernels for big data applications
(Springer, 2016)Analysis of big data on large-scale distributed systems often necessitates efficient parallel graph algorithms that are used to explore the relationships between individual components. Graph algorithms use the basic adjacency ... -
Overdetermined systems of linear equations

The root locus method
(CRC Press, 2006)The root locus technique is a graphical tool used in feedback control system analysis and design. It has been formally introduced to the engineering community by W. R. Evans [3,4], who received the Richard E. Bellman Control ... -
Online nonlinear modeling via self-organizing trees
(Elsevier, 2018)We study online supervised learning and introduce regression and classification algorithms based on self-organizing trees (SOTs), which adaptively partition the feature space into small regions and combine simple local ...
