Simulated one-pass list-mode: an approach to on-the-fly system matrix calculation.
2013
In the development of prototype systems for positron emission tomography a valid and robust image reconstruction algorithm is required. However, prototypes often employ novel detector and system geometries which may change rapidly under optimization. In addition, developing systems generally produce highly granular, or possibly continuous detection domains which require some level of on-the-fly calculation for retention of measurement precision. In this investigation a new method of on-the-fly system matrix calculation is proposed that provides advantages in application to such list-mode systems in terms of flexibility in system modeling. The new method is easily adaptable to complicated sy…
Methods cooperation for multiresolution motion estimation
2002
For a medical application, we are interested in an estimation of optical flow on a patient's face, particularly around the eyes. Among the methods of optical flow estimation, gradient estimation and block matching are the main methods. However, the gradient-based approach can only be applied for small displacements (one or two pixels). Gener- ally, the process of block matching leads to good results only if the searching strategy is judiciously selected. Our approach is based on a Markov random field model, combined with an algorithm of block match- ing in a multiresolution scheme. The multiresolution approach allows de- tection of a large range of speeds. The large displacements are detect…
Symmetric locally free resolutions and rationality problems
2022
We show that the birationality class of a quadric surface bundle over $\mathbb{P}^2$ is determined by its associated cokernel sheaves. As an application, we discuss stable-rationality of very general quadric bundles over $\mathbb{P}^2$ with discriminant curves of fixed degree. In particular, we construct explicit models of these bundles for some discriminant data. Among others, we obtain various birational models of a nodal Gushel-Mukai fourfold, as well as of a cubic fourfold containing a plane. Finally, we prove stable irrationality of several types of quadric surface bundles.
Multi-resolution analysis in arbitrary Hilbert spaces
1997
We discuss the possibility of introducing a multi-resolution in a Hilbert space which is not necessarily a space of functions. We investigate which of the classical properties can be translated to this more general framework and the way in which this can be done. We comment on the procedure proposed by means of many examples.
Multi-resolution analysis generated by a seed function
2009
In this paper we use the equivalence result originally proved by the author, which relates a multiresolution analysis (MRA) of ℒ2(R) and an orthonormal set of single electron wave functions in the lowest Landau level, to build up a procedure which produces, starting with a certain square-integrable function, a MRA of ℒ2(R). © 2003 American Institute of Physics.
High resolution in currents reconstruction applying the extrapolation matrix and spectrum replies
2007
A faster method for the reconstruction of currents has been proposed. For this a new algorithm has been used which extrapolates a 2D signal in less time than the iterative method of Papoulis. Results exposed in this paper show the likeness of the reconstructed currents with the new algorithm with those of the iterative method and the improvement that might be obtained in these new currents with regard to the iterative one. Furthermore, results show the higher speed of the new matrix method.

Predicting sediment deposition rate in check-dams using machine learning techniques and high-resolution DEMs
2021
Sediments accumulated in check dams are a valuable measure to estimate soil erosion rates. Here, geographic information systems (GIS) and three machine learning techniques (MARS-multivariate adaptive regression splines, RF-random forest and SVM-support vector machine) were used, for the first time, to predict sediment deposition rate (SR) in check-dams located in six watersheds in SW Spain. There, 160 dry-stone check dams (~ 77.8 check-dams km−2), accumulated sediments during a period that varied from 11 to 23 years. The SR was estimated in former research using a topographical method and a high-resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM) (average of 0.14 m3 ha−1 year−1). Nine environmental-to…
Performance of TES method over urban areas at a high spatial resolution scale
2013
The Temperature and Emissivity Separation (TES) algorithm is used to retrieve the LSE and LST values from hyperspectral sensors. In this work we analyse the performance of this methodology over urban areas. Three different sources of error in the processing chain of the remote sensing imagery are detected: the algorithm itself, the atmospheric correction and the 3D structure of the urban scenes. The TITAN tool is used to model all the radiative components of the signal registered by a sensor. Results show that: first, the TES algorithm used reproduces the LSE (LST) of urban materials within an RMSE of 0.017 (0.9 K). Second, 20 % of uncertainty in the water vapour content of the total atmosp…
Optimizing LUT-Based RTM Inversion for Semiautomatic Mapping of Crop Biophysical Parameters from Sentinel-2 and -3 Data: Role of Cost Functions
2014
Inversion of radiative transfer models (RTM) using a lookup-table (LUT) approach against satellite reflectance data can lead to concurrent retrievals of biophysical parameters such as leaf chlorophyll content (Chl) and leaf area index (LAI), but optimization strategies are not consolidated yet. ESA's upcoming satellites Sentinel-2 (S2) and Sentinel-3 (S3) aim to ensure continuity of old generation satellite sensors by providing superspectral images of high spatial and temporal resolution. This unprecedented data availability leads to an urgent need for developing robust, accurate, and operational retrieval methods. For three simulated Sentinel settings (S2-10 m: 4 bands, S2-20 m: 8 bands an…
