Translation And Rotation Invariant Multiscale Image Registration, Jennifer L. Manfra
Translation And Rotation Invariant Multiscale Image Registration, Jennifer L. Manfra
Theses and Dissertations
The most recent research involved registering images in the presence of translations and rotations using one iteration of the redundant discrete wavelet transform. We extend this work by creating a new multiscale transform to register two images with translation or rotation differences, independent of scale differences between the images. Our two-dimensional multiscale transform uses an innovative combination of lowpass filtering and the continuous wavelet transform to mimic the two-dimensional redundant discrete wavelet transform. This allows us to obtain multiple subbands at various scales while maintaining the desirable properties of the redundant discrete wavelet transform. Whereas the discrete wavelet transform produces …
Performance Analysis Of A Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation Algorithm In A Circuit-Switched Communications Network, Timothy M. Schwamb
Performance Analysis Of A Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation Algorithm In A Circuit-Switched Communications Network, Timothy M. Schwamb
Theses and Dissertations
Military communications networks typically employ a gateway multiplexer to aggregate all communications traffic onto a single link. These multiplexers typically use a static bandwidth allocation method via time-division multiplexing (TDM). Inefficiencies occur when a high-bandwidth circuit, e.g., a video teleconferencing circuit, is relatively inactive rendering a considerable portion of the aggregate bandwidth wasted while inactive. Dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) reclaims unused bandwidth from circuits with low utilization and reallocates it to circuits with higher utilization without adversely affecting queuing delay. The proposed DBA algorithm developed here measures instantaneous utilization by counting frames arriving during the transmission time of a single …
