An effective method of color image recognition is proposed in this paper. The singular value (SV) feature vector is firstly extracted as algebraic feature of color image; then the characteristic matrix of image is presented, which is made up of the SV feature vector of image. And then using the similarity of the characteristic matrices, the method for recognition is established. The recognition rate is satisfactory from the experiment.

This paper presents a numerical analysis of electromagnetic scattering from various infinite, metallic cylinders using the Method of Auxiliary Sources (MAS). The cross section of all geometries under investigation can be considered as perturbations of a circle, i. e. of a configuration that was thoroughly examined in the literature recently. Several plots depicting the computational error, associated with the numerical solution of the MAS linear system, as well as the condition number of the impedance matrix, are presented and discussed. The final purpose of this study is the extraction of useful conclusions on the optimum location of the auxiliary sources for arbitrarily shaped scatterers.

It is shown that there is an unique ω-period solution x(t, φ^*) for a delayed cellular network and its each solution x(t, φ) converges exponentially to x(t, φ^*) if its each output function is bounded and satisfies Lipschitz condition when all input signals are at-periodic functions.

For many years discrete-event simulation has been used to analyse production and logistics problems in manufacturing and defence. In the early 1980s, visual interactive modelling environments were created that supported the development, experimentation and visualisation of simulation models. Today these environments are termed Commercial-off-the-shelf Simulation Packages (CSPs). With the advent of distributed simulation and, later, the High Level Architecture, the possibility existed to link together these CSPs and their models to simulate larger problems within enterprises (e.g. multiple production lines) and across supply chains. However, the problem of standardising the use of the HLA and its constituent parts in this domain exists. The solution of this problem is the work of the CSP Interoperability Product Development Group (CSPI-PDG). The purpose of this paper is to introduce the CSPI-PDG and to review for the first time in a SISO Workshop the suite of standards proposed by the group and the current progress.

The two-thirds power law, an empirical law stating an inverse non-linear relationship between the tangential hand speed and the curvature of its trajectory during curved motion, is widely acknowledged to be an invariant of upper-limb movement. It has also been shown to exist in eyemotion, locomotion and was even demonstrated in motion perception and prediction. This ubiquity has fostered various attempts to uncover the origins of this empirical relationship. In these it was generally attributed either to smoothness in hand- or joint-space or to the result of mechanisms that damp noise inherent in the motor system to produce the smooth trajectories evident in healthy human motion. We show here that white Gaussian noise also obeys this power-law. Analysis of signal and noise combinations shows that trajectories that were synthetically created not to comply with the power-law are transformed to power-law compliant ones after combination with low levels of noise. Furthermore, there exist colored noise types that drive non-power-law trajectories to power-law compliance and are not affected by smoothing. These results suggest caution when running experiments aimed at verifying the power-law or assuming its underlying existence without proper analysis of the noise. Our results could also suggest that the power-law might be derived not from smoothness or smoothness-inducing mechanisms operating on the noise inherent in our motor system but rather from the correlated noise which is inherent in this motor system.

The problem of feature-based surface reconstruction is considered in this paper. Our main contribution is the ability to handle visibility constraints, obtained from the projections of points, curves and silhouettes, in the surface fitting process. While traditional methods often ignore such information, we show that visibility constraints not only give better initial surface estimates and faster convergence, but also provide an important cue for determining surface topology. The problem is cast as a variational problem with constraints within the level set framework. It is shown how to evolve the surface without violating the visibility constraints using methods from variational calculus. Applications of the theory are detailed for a number of important cases of geometric primitives: points, curves and visual hulls. Several experiments on real image sequences are given to demonstrate the performance of the approach.

Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Simulation Packages (CSPs) are widely used to facilitate the creation of simulation models using some kind of visual interactive interface. CSPs have "evolved" over the years and are well used to support modeling demands in different market niches and domains. However, in terms of distributed simulation, there is almost a complete lack of support for interoperability. The advent of the High Level Architecture (HLA) standard makes it possible to connect distributed model components together. The model components can be developed using specific CSPs best suited to the application area. In this paper, a CSP Emulator (CSPE) is proposed to investigate the interfaces between the CSPs and the HLA Runtime Infrastructure. In addition to support for standalone models as provided by current CSPs, the CSPE has some new features needed for building distributed models. An evaluation is conducted between CSPE and Simul8, one of the popular CSPs.

In this paper, we consider the problem of dynamically regulating the timing of traffic light controllers in busy cities. We use a Stochastic Fluid Model (SFM) to model the dynamics of the queues formed at an intersection. Based on this model, we derive gradients of the queue lengths with respect to the green/red light lengths within a signal cycle. We report preliminary numerical results comparing the performance of the estimates with finite-difference and smoothed perturbation analysis estimates. Then all estimators are used to optimize the traffic system via Stochastic Approximation.
