Variations in surface roughness of different machining procedures from a typical metallic casting comparator are obtained from scattering intensity of a laser beam and expressed as changes in the statistics of speckle patterns and profiles optical properties. The application of the analysis (RQA) by Recurrence Plots (RPs), allowed to distinguish between machining procedures, highlighting features that other methods are unable to detect.展开更多

We presented in this paper a novel method to automatically assess the EDSS score from posturologic data (center of pres-sure signals) using a decision tree. Two groups of participants (one for learning and the other for test) with EDSS rang-ing from 0 to 4.5 performed our balance experiment with eyes closed. Two linear measures (the length and the surface) and twelve non-linear measures (the recurrence rate, the Shannon entropy, the averaged diagonal line length and the trapping time for the position, the instantaneous velocity and the instantaneous acceleration of the center of pressure respectively) were calculated for all the participants. Several decision trees were constructed with learning data and tested with test data. By comparing clinical and estimated EDSS scores in the test group, we selected one decision tree with five measures which revealed a 75% of agreement. The results have signified that our tree model is able to auto-matically assess the EDSS scores and that it is possible to distinguish the EDSS scores by using linear and non-linear postural sway measures.展开更多

High efficiency is achieved by integrating graph traversal mechanisms into a top-down evaluation. In such a way the subsumption checks and the identification of cyclic data can be done very efficielltly First, based on the subsumption checks, the search space can be reduced drastically by avoiding any redundant expansion operation. In fact, in the case of non-cyclic data, the proposed algorithm requires only linear time for evaluating a linear recursive query. On the other hand, in the case of cyclic data, by using the technique for isolating strongly connected components a lot of answers can be generated directly in terms of the intermediate results and the relevant path information instead of evaluating them by performing algebraic operations. Since the cost of generating an answer is much less than that of evaluating an answer by algebraic operations, the time consumption for cyclic data can be reduced by an order of magnitude or more.展开更多
