Similar impact of topological and dynamic noise on complex patterns

, 2005
Shortcuts in a regular architecture affect the information transport through the system due to the severe decrease in average path length. A fundamental new perspective in terms of pattern formation is the destabilizing effect of topological ...

Carbon-Enhanced Hyper-metal-poor Stars and the Stellar IMF at Low Metallicity

, 2007
The two known ``hyper-metal-poor'' (HMP) stars, HE0107-5240 and HE1327-2326, have extremely high enhancements of the light elements C, N, and O relative to Fe and appear to represent a statistically significant excess population relative to the halo ...

Statistical mechanics characterization of spatio-compositional inhomogeneity

, 2009
On the basis of a model system of pillars built of unit cubes, a two-component entropic measure for the multiscale analysis of spatio-compositional inhomogeneity is proposed.

LOCAL LINE BINARY PATTERN FOR FEATURE EXTRACTION ON PALM VEIN RECOGNITION

Jurnal Ilmu Komputer dan Informasi, 2015
In recent years, palm vein recognition has been studied to overcome problems in conventional systems in biometrics technology (finger print, face, and iris). Those problems in biometrics includes convenience and performance. However, due to the clarity of the palm vein image, the veins could not be segmented properly.

Cluster approximations for probabilistic systems: a new perspective of epidemiological modelling

, 2004
Especially in lattice structured populations, homogeneous mixing represents an inadequate assumption. Various improvements upon the ordinary pair approximation based on a number of assumptions concerning the higher-order correlations have been proposed ...
