The Euler number of a binary image is an important topological measure which is used as a feature in image analysis. In this paper, a very fast algorithm for the detection and localization of the objects and the computation of the Euler number of a binary image is proposed. The proposed algorithm operates in one scan of the image and is based on the Image Block Representation (IBR) scheme. The proposed algorithm is more efficient than conventional pixel based algorithms in terms of execution speed and representation of the extracted information.展开更多

A p-adic congruence is called a super congruence if it happens to hold modulo some higher power of p. The topic of super congruences is related to many fields including Gauss and Jacobi sums and hypergeometric series. We prove that ∑k=0^p-1(k^2k/2k)≡(-1)^(p-1)/2-p^2Ep-3(modp^3) ∑k=1^(p-1)/2(k^2k)/k≡(-1)^(p+1)/2 8/3pEp-3(mod p^2),∑k=0^(p-1)/2(k^2k)^2/16k≡(-1)^(p-1)/2+p^2Ep-3(mod p^3),where E0, E1, E2,... are Euler numbers. Our new approach is of combinatorial nature. We also formulate many conjectures concerning super congruences and relate most of them to Euler numbers or Bernoulli numbers. Motivated by our investigation of super congruences, we also raise a conjecture on 7 new series for π2, π-2 and the constant K := ∑k=1^∞(k/3)/k^2 (with (-) the Jacobi symbol), two of which are ∑k=1^∞(10k-3)8k/k2(k^2k)^2(k^3k)=π^2/2and ∑k=1^∞(15k-4)(-27)^k-1/k^3(k^2k)^2(k^3k)=K.展开更多

This paper proposes a two-scan algorithm for labeling connected components and holes simultaneously in a binary image by use of the same data structure. With our algorithm, besides labeling, we can also easily calculate the number and the area of connected components and holes, as well as the Euler number. Our method is very simple in principle, and experimental results demonstrate that our method is much more efficient than conventional methods for various kinds of images in cases where both labeling and Euler number computing are necessary.展开更多
