    • Object-based image labeling through learning by example and multi-level segmentation 

      Xu, Y.; Duygulu, P.; Saber, Eli; Tekalp, A.; Yarman-Vural, F. (Elsevier Science, 2003-06)
      We propose a system that employs low-level image segmentation followed by color and two-dimensional (2-D) shape matching to automatically group those low-level segments into objects based on their similarity to a set ...
    • Observation of the concurrent creation and annihilation of periodic orbits in a nonlinear RLC circuit 

      Newell, Timothy; Kovanis, Vassilios; Gavrielides, Athanasios; Bennett, P. (American Physical Society, 1996-10)
      We have numerically investigated and experimentally demonstrated the presence of antimonotonicity: the concurrent creation and destruction of periodic orbits in a driven nonlinear RLC circuit. A simple manifestation of ...
    • Observations of the neutral gas and dust in the radio galaxy 3C305 

      Jackson, Neal; Beswick, Rob; Pedlar, Alan; Cole, G.; Sparks, William; Leahy, Patrick; Axon, David (Blackwell Publishing: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2003-01)
      We present MERLIN and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the central region of the nearby radio galaxy 3C305 and use them to study the gas and dust in this object. TheMERLIN observations are of neutral hydrogen ...
    • Observer variability in metameric color matches using color reproduction media 

      Alfvin, Richard; Fairchild, Mark (Wiley InterScience: Color Research & Application, 1998-12-06)
      Standard color-matching functions are designed to represent the mean color-matching response of the population of human observers with normal color vision. When using these functions, two questions arise. Are they an ...
    • Ocean-Marks 

      Sylvester, Donna (1976-05)
      n/a
    • Oculomotor behavior and perceptual strategies in complex tasks 

      Pelz, Jeff; Canosa, Roxanne (Elsevier Science, 2001-11)
      While we know a great deal about the dynamics and characteristics of eye movements in relatively simple tasks performed under reduced laboratory conditions, we know less about oculomotor behavior in complex, multi-step ...
    • OmpX_1QJ9 

      Craig, Paul (2010-05-12)
    • On group rings which are not ore domains 

      Engel, Alejandro; Makar-Limanov, Leonid (Springer New York, 1989-12)
    • On some aspects of ecological resilience and the conservation of species 

      Batabyal, Amitrajeet (Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com, 1998)
      The importance of the notion of resilience in determining the static and the intertemporal behavior of jointly determined ecological-economic systems has long been recognized by ecologists. This notwithstanding, there are ...
    • On some aspects of the management of a stochastically developing forest 

      Batabyal, Amitrajeet (Elsevier. The definitive version is available at http://www.elsevier.com, 1998-05)
      In this paper I focus on some important biological aspects of the forest management problem. I model a stochastically developing forest as a multidimensional, continuous-time Markov chain. Next, I pose three questions ...
    • On stage with Ozzy is a sign of the times for local woman 

      Walter, Eric (Gates Chili Post, 2005-10-06)
      Chili’s Susan Manley’s summer rocked as she interpreted for the deaf at concerts.
    • On temporal controls and the stochastic behavior of renewable natural resources 

      Batabyal, Amitrajeet (Elsevier. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/resourpol, 2002)
      This paper provides a theoretical analysis of the effects of temporal controls on the stochastic behavior of renewable natural resources such as fisheries and rangelands. First, we show that temporal resource management ...
    • On the extinction of species in jointly determined stochastic systems 

      Batabyal, Amitrajeet; Beladi, Hamid (Taylor and Francis. A definitive copy can be found at http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals, 2000)
      The sizable literature 0n extinction in economics has paid scant attention to the problem of constructing measures of species extinction. Moreover, this literature has not studied the question of species extinction in ...
    • On the global character of the difference equation x(n+1)=(alpha)+(gamma)xn-(2k+1)+(delta)xn-2|A+xn-2| 

      Grove, Edward; Ladas, Gerry; Predescu, Mihaela; Radin, Michael (Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2003-01-01)
      We investigate the global stability, the periodic character, and the boundedness nature of solutions of the difference equation x(n+1)=(alpha)+(gamma)xn-(2k+1)+(delta)xn-2|A+xn-2|, n=0,1,... where k and l are non-negative ...
    • On the nature of critical heat flux in microchannels 

      Bergles, A.; Kandlikar, Satish (American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2005-01)
      The critical heat flux (CHF) limit is an important consideration in the design of most flow boiling systems. Before the use of microchannels under saturated flow boiling conditions becomes widely accepted in cooling of ...
    • On the optimal management of a class of aquatic ecological-economic systems 

      Batabyal, Amitrajeet; Beladi, Hamid (Elsevier Science. The definitive version can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/dsw, 2001)
      This paper studies aquatic ecological-economic systems such as the Chesapeake Bay. The stability of such ecological-economic systems depends on the successful functioning of a small number of generalist species in a wide ...
    • On the scarcity value of ecosystem services 

      Batabyal, Amitrajeet; Kahn, James; O'Neill, Robert (Elsevier, 2003)
      In this exploratory paper, we first make a case for considering the scarcity value of ecosystem services in the analyses of jointly determined ecological–economic systems. Next, we point out that insight into the scarcity ...
    • On Understanding the relationship between ultrasound speckle and the scattering microstructure 

      Rao, Navalgund; Venkataraman, S.; Helguera, Maria (Acoustical Imaging, 1997)
      Recent studies on the statistics of the envelope of the ultrasound echo signal from a random scattering medium suggest that the statistical moments of the signal may carry quantitative information about the scattering ...
