Joint Map Registration And High Resolution Image Estimation Using A Sequence Of Undersampled Images, Russell C. Hardie, Kenneth J. Barnard, Ernest E. Armstrong Dec 1997

Joint Map Registration And High Resolution Image Estimation Using A Sequence Of Undersampled Images, Russell C. Hardie, Kenneth J. Barnard, Ernest E. Armstrong

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

n many imaging systems, the detector array is not sufficiently dense to adequately sample the scene with the desired field of view. This is particularly true for many infrared focal plane arrays. Thus, the resulting images may be severely aliased. This paper examines a technique for estimating a high-resolution image, with reduced aliasing, from a sequence of undersampled frames. Several approaches to this problem have been investigated previously. However, in this paper a maximum a posteriori (MAP) framework for jointly estimating image registration parameters and the high-resolution image is presented. Several previous approaches have relied on knowing the registration parameters …


Positive Solutions And Nonlinear Multipoint Conjugate Eigenvalue Problems, Paul W. Eloe, Johnny Henderson Jan 1997

Positive Solutions And Nonlinear Multipoint Conjugate Eigenvalue Problems, Paul W. Eloe, Johnny Henderson

Mathematics Faculty Publications

Values of λ are determined for which there exist solutions in a cone of the nth order nonlinear differential equation (see PDF) satisfying themultipoint boundary conditions (see PDF) where a and f are nonnegative valued, and where both (see PDF) exist.


Grand Tour-Part 2: Petrogenesis And Thermal Evolution Of Deep Continental-Crust: The Record From The East Humboldt Range, Nevada, Allen J. Mcgrew, Mark T. Peters Jan 1997

Grand Tour-Part 2: Petrogenesis And Thermal Evolution Of Deep Continental-Crust: The Record From The East Humboldt Range, Nevada, Allen J. Mcgrew, Mark T. Peters

Geology Faculty Publications

The northern part of the East Humboldt Range, Nevada, provides a rare opportunity to explore the petrogenetic environment of deep levels in the middle crust during both large-scale Mesozoic contraction and Cenozoic regional extension. On this segment of the field trip, we will explore evidence bearing on the character of the metamorphic and magmatic history of this terrane, and attempt to link these constraints to the rheology and tectonic evolution of the middle crust during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic.


The Grand Tour Of The Ruby-East Humboldt Metamorphic Core Complex, Northeastern Nevada: Part 1-Introduction & Road Log, Arthur W. Snoke, Keith A. Howard, Allen J. Mcgrew, Bradford R. Burton, Calvin G. Barnes, Mark T. Peters, James E. Wright Jan 1997

The Grand Tour Of The Ruby-East Humboldt Metamorphic Core Complex, Northeastern Nevada: Part 1-Introduction & Road Log, Arthur W. Snoke, Keith A. Howard, Allen J. Mcgrew, Bradford R. Burton, Calvin G. Barnes, Mark T. Peters, James E. Wright

Geology Faculty Publications

The purpose of this geological excursion is to provide an overview of the multiphase developmental history of the Ruby Mountains and East Humboldt Range, northeastern Nevada. Although these mountain ranges are commonly cited as a classic example of a Cordilleran metamorphic core complex developed through large-magnitude, mid-Tertiary crustal extension, a preceding polyphase Mesozoic contractional history is also well preserved in the ranges. An early phase of this history involved Late Jurassic two-mica granitic magmatism, high-temperature but relatively low-pressure metamorphism, and polyphase deformation in the central Ruby Mountains. In the northern Ruby Mountains and East Humboldt Range, a Late Cretaceous history …


Singular Nonlinear (N-1,1) Conjugate Boundary Value Problems, Paul W. Eloe, Johnny Henderson Jan 1997

Singular Nonlinear (N-1,1) Conjugate Boundary Value Problems, Paul W. Eloe, Johnny Henderson

Mathematics Faculty Publications

Solutions are obtained for the boundary value problem, y (n) + f(x,y) = 0, y (i)(0) = y(1) = 0, 0 i n – 2, where f(x,y) is singular at y = 0. An application is made of a fixed point theorem for operators that are decreasing with respect to a cone.


A Boundary Value Problem For A System Of Ordinary Differential Equations With Impulse Effects, Paul W. Eloe, Johnny Henderson Jan 1997

A Boundary Value Problem For A System Of Ordinary Differential Equations With Impulse Effects, Paul W. Eloe, Johnny Henderson

Mathematics Faculty Publications

A two-point boundary value problem for a system of first-order ordinary differential equations with impulse effects is studied. The method of upper and lower solutions is employed to obtain the existence of a solution and a method of forced monotonicity is employed to obtain iterative improvement. The main result is illustrated with an application to the Liénard equation with periodic boundary conditions.
