Porting Cosmos Expert System From Unix To Dos, Ching-Jeng Chiu
Porting Cosmos Expert System From Unix To Dos, Ching-Jeng Chiu
Theses
COSMOS is an object-oriented Knowledge Based System building Tools (KBSTs) to solve problem in engineering industry. COSMOS stands for C++ Object-oriented System Made for expert System development.
In order to provide more people those who don't have a Sun workstation to use this expert system, our task is porting COSMOS form UNIX to DOS.
Because the differents of workstation environment, the user interface and structure of original COSMOS no longer can be used, therefore we made some necessary change before we porting it to IBM Personal Computer.
In stead of X Window system®, we implemented ObjectWindows® runs on Microsoft WindowsTM. …
Character Recognition Using String Matching, Xiaozhi Ye
Character Recognition Using String Matching, Xiaozhi Ye
Theses
To handle noisy and distorted pattern is the use of similarity or distance measures. A similarity or distance measure can be defined between a representation of an unknown pattern and a representation of a prototype pattern. Recognition of the unknown pattern can be carried out on the basis of the maximum-similarity or minimum distance criterion (Bunke 1990) This approach is proposed to recognize the noisy or distorted character image. In this work, a directly string representation of the pattern ( prototype as well as unknown input) using the histogram method, a decision procedure for classification is the well known Levenshtein …
Performance Analysis Of Queueing Systems With Synchronous Server, Wonmu Hur
Performance Analysis Of Queueing Systems With Synchronous Server, Wonmu Hur
Theses
The performance measures are derived for a queueing system which is characterized by its synchronous server operations. This property is the one which normal queueing systems lack. A system of this nature contains a single common server to which multiple number of buffers are connected in parallel, where the server operates only when all system buffers are occupied.
In this thesis, the analysis is carried out focusing on the simplest system involving only two buffers. Throughout the analysis, a symmetricity of the system is assumed (i.e., system is symmetrical in terms of arriving customer statistics.). Also assumed are the Poisson …
Domain Analysis Within The Gensif Framework, Heiko Thimm
Domain Analysis Within The Gensif Framework, Heiko Thimm
Theses
The GenSIF framework which is targeted towards very large, distributed, and complex software systems recently has been proposed to accomplish a form of systems engineering and systems development in which the issue of systems integration is considered from the beginning on.
One of the components of GenSIF is domain analysis. Domain analysis leads to the design of a domain model. The specific needs GenSIF has in that area were investigated with an emphasis on domain modeling. Main points addressed in that investigation were the issue regarding the relevant information for the domain modeling process and the required type of domain …
Design And Implementation Of Two Text Recognition Algorithms, Madhumathi Yendamuri
Design And Implementation Of Two Text Recognition Algorithms, Madhumathi Yendamuri
Theses
This report presents two algorithms for text recognition. One is a neural-based orthogonal vector with pseudo-inverse approach for pattern recognition. A method to generate N orthogonal vectors for an N-neuron network is also presented. This approach converges the input to the corresponding orthogonal vector representing the prototype vector. This approach can restore an image to the original image and thus has error recovery capacility. Also, the concept of sub-networking is applied to this approach to enhance the memory capacity of the neural network. This concept drastically increases the memory capacity of the network and also causes a reduction of the …
New Algorithms For Mid-Crack Codes In Image Processing, Wai-Tak Wong
New Algorithms For Mid-Crack Codes In Image Processing, Wai-Tak Wong
Theses
The chain code is a widely-used description for a contour image. Recently, a mid-crack code algorithm has been proposed as another more precise method for image representation. New algorithms using this new mid-crack code for image representation, restoration, and skeletonization are developed. The efficiency and accuracy can be increased obviously.
Firstly, the conversion of a binary image with multiple regions into the mid-crack codes is presented. A fast on-line implementation can be achieved using tables look-up. The input binary image may contain several object regions and their mid-crack codes can be extracted at the same time in a single-pass row-by-row …
Graphical Image Persistence And Code Generation For Object Oriented Databases, Subrata Chatterjee
Graphical Image Persistence And Code Generation For Object Oriented Databases, Subrata Chatterjee
Theses
Attached is the detailed description of the design and implementation of graphical image persistence and code generation for object oriented databases. Graphical image persistent is incorporated into a graphics editor called OODINI. OODINI creates and manipulates graphical schemas for object-oriented databases. This graphical image on secondary storage is then translated into an abstract, generic code for dual model databases. This abstract code, DAL can then be converted into different dual model database languages. We provide an example by generating code for the VODAK Data Modeling language. It is also possible to generate a different abstract language code, OODAL from a …
An Implementation And Evaluation Of Distributed Information System Based On The Osca Architecture Guidelines, Babita Masand
An Implementation And Evaluation Of Distributed Information System Based On The Osca Architecture Guidelines, Babita Masand
Theses
The concepts in this thesis discuss and evaluate the need for systems integration. As a conceptual architecture, the OSCATM architecture is investigated. A prototype of the CS Department distributed information system is built following the guidelines and standards of this conceptual architecture. This prototype is implemented in 'C'. RPC (remote procedure call) is used for the communication channel to implement the distributed environment. Conclusions and results that were achieved by implementing this prototype are presented. The main outcome of this thesis is the introduction of the infrastructure to the GenSIF framework.
Decomposition Of Geometric-Shaped Structuring Elements And Optimization On Euclidean Distance Transformation Using Morphology, Hong Wu
Theses
Mathematical morphology which is based on geometric shape, provides an approach to the processing and analysis of digital images. Several widely-used geometric-shaped structuring elements can be used to explore the shape characteristics of an object. In first chapter, we present a unified technique to simplify the decomposition of various types of big geometric-shaped structuring elements into dilations of smaller structuring components by the use of a mathematical transformation. Hence, the desired morphological erosion and dilation are equivalent to a simple inverse transformation over the result of operations on the transformed decomposable structuring elements. We also present a strategy to decompose …
Real-Tv : Rtp/L3'S Visual Monitor, Richard Czop
Real-Tv : Rtp/L3'S Visual Monitor, Richard Czop
Theses
Today many real-world activities are being monitored and controlled by some type of micro-processor based system. Emphasis is placed on manufacturing and controlling through the use of computers. The inherent nature of these real-world applications makes them difficult to control and monitor. They must be built meeting strict timing constraints and must be predictable. We need to develop simplistic, reliable, and cost effective methods for building, evaluating, monitoring and controlling these complex systems. These tools should provide the user with system insight. At the New Jersey Institute of Technology Real-Time Computing Laboratory, we are building a system that will provide …
Searching For Orthogonal States Of Neural Networks, Heng Wang
Searching For Orthogonal States Of Neural Networks, Heng Wang
Theses
Two approaches to find orthogonal states of neural network are presented in the paper. The first approach is a recursive one, it builds N orthogonal vectors based on N /2 orthogonal vectors. The second approach is a formula approach, in which orthogonal vectors can be obtained using a formula. Using these approaches, orthogonal states of neural network are found. Some properties of the neural network built on these orthogonal vectors are presented in Appendix A and some examples are given in Appendix B.

Dynamic Machine Scheduling, Expansion, And Control Of A Generic Workcell, Peter A. Murray
Dynamic Machine Scheduling, Expansion, And Control Of A Generic Workcell, Peter A. Murray
Theses
Factory automation has come a long way since the invention of the automatic flour mill. A workcell is a group of machines (robots) working together to produce a product. In the past workcells have been hard wired using methods such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). To change a part of this system would require reprogramming the entire system.
The Generic Work Cell (GWC) is a dynamic architecture which allows a workcell to be modified on the fly. The architecture enables the generation of new cells with minimal effort, and the modification of the system without reprogramming the entire system. The …
