Empirical mode decomposition (EMD), which is increasingly popular and has advantages over classical wavelet decomposition, can be used to remove short period variations from observed time series of pole co- ordinates. A hybrid model combing EMD and extreme learning machine (ELM), where high frequency signals are removed and processed time series is then modeled and predicted, is summarized in this paper. The prediction performance of the hybrid model is compared with that of the ELM-only method created from original time series. The results show that the proposed hybrid model outperforms the pure ELM method for both short-term and long-term prediction of pole coordinates. The improvement of prediction accuracy up to 360 days in the future is found to be 24.91% and 26.79% on average in terms of mean absolute error (MAE) for the xp and yp components of pole coordinates, respectively.展开更多

It was found that solitary polarizationdecomposition did not meet the demand for detecting andclassifying multiple floating pollutants, even after applyinga polarized SAR image. Furthermore, considering thatYamaguchi decomposition is sensitive to vegetation andthe algal variety Enteromorpha prolifera, while H/A/alphadecomposition is sensitive to oil spills, a combination ofparameters which was deduced from these two decom-positions was proposed for marine environmental mon-itoring of mixed floating sea surface pollutants. Acombination of volume scattering, surface scattering, andscattering entropy was the best indicator for classifyingmixed floating pollutants from a complex ocean back-ground. The Kappa coefficients for Enteromorpha pro-lifera and oil spills were 0.7514 and 0.8470, respectively,evidence that the composite polarized parameters based onquad-polarized SAR imagery proposed in this research isan effective monitoring method for complex marinepollution.展开更多

The transformation T = |T|^1/2 U|T|^1/2 is called the Aluthge transformation and Tn means the n-th Aluthge transformation. Similarly, the transformation T(*)=|T*|^1/2 U|T*|&1/2 is called the *-Aluthge transformation and Tn^(*) means the n-th *-Aluthge transformation. In this paper, firstly, we show that T(*) = UV|T^(*)| is the polar decomposition of T(*), where |T|^1/2 |T^*|^1/2 = V||T|^1/2 |T^*|^1/2| is the polar decomposition. Secondly, we show that T(*) = U|T^(*)| if and only if T is binormal, i.e., [|T|, |T^*|]=0, where [A, B] = AB - BA for any operator A and B. Lastly, we show that Tn^(*) is binormal for all non-negative integer n if and only if T is centered, and so on.展开更多

Our new approach directly compresses the field of deformation gradient defined on the surface mesh, by decomposing it into rigid-body motion (rotation) and non-rigid-body deformation (stretching) through polar decomposition. It is known that the rotation group has the algebraic topology of 3D ring, which is different from other operations like stretching. Thus we compress these two groups separately, by using Manifold Harmonics Transform to drop out their high-frequency details. Our experimental result shows that the proposed method achieves a good balance between tile reconstruction quality and the compression ratio. We compare our results quantitatively with other existing approaches on animation compression, using standard measurement criteria.展开更多
