Study Of Relative Effectiveness Of Features In Content-Based Image Retrieval, S. R. Subramanya, Jui Che Teng, Yongjian Fu Jan 2002

Study Of Relative Effectiveness Of Features In Content-Based Image Retrieval, S. R. Subramanya, Jui Che Teng, Yongjian Fu

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Content-based retrieval in image databases requires appropriate features of images to be derived and used in the indexing and searching process. Fast and accurate retrieval is crucial from a user point of view. The kinds of features used, their organization in suitable data structures, and the similarity search scheme, directly affect the speed and quality of content-based retrieval. In this paper, we evaluate the relative significance of three different image features - geometry, moments, and Fourier descriptors in the context of content-based retrieval, and present experimental results. The evaluation metrics are retrieval quality and search time. These could be used …


End To End Congestion Control In High-Speed Networks, Sarangapani Jagannathan Jan 2002

End To End Congestion Control In High-Speed Networks, Sarangapani Jagannathan

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

This paper proposes an adaptive methodology to prevent congestion in packet switched networks such as the Internet, where the internal network nodes convey very little information to the ingress nodes. Two architectures of preventing the congestion are presented: the first one when the traffic arrival rates, and bottleneck queue levels are known and the other when these are unknown. In the latter, the network traffic is estimated online using an adaptive system by measuring the buffer occupancy. In both architectures, the congestion is controlled by adjusting the transmission rates of non real-time and certain real-time sources in response to the …


Distributed Power Control In Wireless Communication Systems, Sarangapani Jagannathan, A. T. Chronopoulos, S. Ponipireddy Jan 2002

Distributed Power Control In Wireless Communication Systems, Sarangapani Jagannathan, A. T. Chronopoulos, S. Ponipireddy

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Energy efficiency is a measure of performance in wireless networks. Therefore, controlling the transmitter power at a given node increases not only battery operating life, but also overall system capacity by successfully admitting new links. It is essential to find effective means of power control in point-to-point, broadcasting and multicasting scenarios. Wireless networking presents formidable challenges, and we consider the problem of unicast or point-to-point (peer-to-peer) communication in wireless networks in the presence of other nodes. We study the feasibility of admitting new links in an wireless network operating area while maintaining quality of service (QoS), in terms of signal-to-interference …


A Hybrid System Theoretic Approach For Admission Controller Design In Multimedia Networks, Sarangapani Jagannathan Jan 2002

A Hybrid System Theoretic Approach For Admission Controller Design In Multimedia Networks, Sarangapani Jagannathan

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A novel real-time discrete-event admission control (AC) scheme for high-speed networks is proposed with the aim of attaining a desired quality of service (QoS) and high network utilization. The AC uses the available capacity from a novel adaptive bandwidth estimation scheme, a congestion indicator derived from a congestion controller, peak bit/cell rate (PBR/PCR) estimate from new sources, along with the desired QoS metrics, and makes decisions whether to 'admit' or 'reject' new sources. The novel aspect of the proposed approach is the application of hybrid system theory to prove the performance of the admission controller, stability and the development of …


Adaptive Critic-Based Neural Network Controller For Uncertain Nonlinear Systems With Unknown Deadzones, Pingan He, Jagannathan Sarangapani, S. N. Balakrishnan Jan 2002

Adaptive Critic-Based Neural Network Controller For Uncertain Nonlinear Systems With Unknown Deadzones, Pingan He, Jagannathan Sarangapani, S. N. Balakrishnan

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A multilayer neural network (NN) controller in discrete-time is designed to deliver a desired tracking performance for a class of nonlinear systems with input deadzones. This multilayer NN controller has an adaptive critic NN architecture with two NNs for compensating the deadzone nonlinearity and a third NN for approximating the dynamics of the nonlinear system. A reinforcement learning scheme in discrete-time is proposed for the adaptive critic NN deadzone compensator, where the learning is performed based on a certain performance measure, which is supplied from a critic. The adaptive generating NN rejects the errors induced by the deadzone whereas a …

High-Efficiency Solar Cells Based On Cu(Inal)Se[Sub 2] Thin Films, S. Marsillac, P. D. Paulson, M. W. Haimbodi, R. W. Birkmire, W. N. Shafarman

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

A Cu(InAl)Se2solar cell with 16.9% efficiency is demonstrated using a Cu(InAl)Se2thin film deposited by four-source elemental evaporation and a device structure of glass/Mo/Cu(InAl)Se2/CdS/ZnO/indium tin oxide/(Ni/Algrid)/MgF2. A key to high efficiency is improved adhesion between the Cu(InAl)Se2 and the Mo back contact layer, provided by a 5-nm-thick Ga interlayer, which enabled the Cu(InAl)Se2 to be deposited at a 530 °C substrate temperature. Film and device properties are compared to Cu(InGa)Se2 with the same band gap of 1.16 eV. The solar cells have similar behavior, with performance limited by recombination through …


Federating Heterogeneous Digital Libraries By Metadata Harvesting, Xiaoming Liu Jan 2002

Federating Heterogeneous Digital Libraries By Metadata Harvesting, Xiaoming Liu

Computer Science Theses & Dissertations

This dissertation studies the challenges and issues faced in federating heterogeneous digital libraries (DLs) by metadata harvesting. The objective of federation is to provide high-level services (e.g. transparent search across all DLs) on the collective metadata from different digital libraries. There are two main approaches to federate DLs: distributed searching approach and harvesting approach. As the distributed searching approach replies on executing queries to digital libraries in real time, it has problems with scalability. The difficulty of creating a distributed searching service for a large federation is the motivation behind Open Archives Initiatives Protocols for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH). OAI-PMH supports …


Distribution Of The Euryhaline Squid Lolliguncula Brevis In Chesapeake Bay: Effects Of Selected Abiotic Factors, I. K. Bartol, R. Mann, M. Vecchione Jan 2002

Distribution Of The Euryhaline Squid Lolliguncula Brevis In Chesapeake Bay: Effects Of Selected Abiotic Factors, I. K. Bartol, R. Mann, M. Vecchione

Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

The majority of cephalopods are thought to have limitations arising from physiology and locomotion that exclude them from shallow, highly variable, euryhaline environments. The brief squid Lolliguncula brevis may be a notable exception because it tolerates low salinities, withstands a wide range of environmental conditions, and swims readily in shallow water. Little is known about the distribution of L. brevis in Chesapeake Bay, a diverse and highly variable estuary. Therefore, a survey of L. brevis was conducted in the Virginia portion of Chesapeake Bay from 1993 to 1997 using a 9.1 m otter trawl, and the effects of selected factors …


Motion Based Event Recognition Using Hmm, Gu Xu, Yu-Fei Ma, Hong-Jiang Zhang, Shiqiang Yang Jan 2002

Motion Based Event Recognition Using Hmm, Gu Xu, Yu-Fei Ma, Hong-Jiang Zhang, Shiqiang Yang

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Motion is an important cue for video understanding and is widely used in many semantic video analyses. We present a new motion representation scheme in which motion in a video is represented by the responses of frames to a set of motion filters. Each of these filters is designed to be most responsive to a type of dominant motion. Then we employ hidden Markov models (HMMs) to characterize the motion patterns based on these features and thus classify basketball video into 16 events. The evaluation by human satisfaction rate to classification result is 75%, demonstrating effectiveness of the proposed approach …

Intra-Annual Variation In The Stable Oxygen And Carbon And Trace Element Composition Of Sclerosponges, P. K. Swart, S. Thorrold, B. Rosenheim, A. Eisenhauer, C. G. A. Harriason, M. Grammer, C. Latkoczy

Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

This paper presents data to support the presence of (1) intra-annual signals in the chemical composition (δ18O and Sr/Ca) of the skeletons ofsclerosponges from the Bahamas and (2) variable rates of skeletal accretion. These conclusions are based on data obtained by using a microsampling method for the stable oxygen and carbon isotopes in which material was extracted at a resolution of one sample every 34 μm and a laser microprobe which obtained trace element data every 20 μm (Sr, Mg, and Pb). An age model was established using a combination of changes in the concentration of Pb, the …


Phosphorus Dynamics In Cultures And Natural Populations Of Trichodesmium Spp, Margaret R. Mulholland, Sheri Floge, Edward J. Carpenter, Douglas G. Capone Jan 2002

Phosphorus Dynamics In Cultures And Natural Populations Of Trichodesmium Spp, Margaret R. Mulholland, Sheri Floge, Edward J. Carpenter, Douglas G. Capone

OES Faculty Publications

Trichodesmium spp. fix atmospheric N2 and so an element other than N limits production by these species in the oligotrophic ocean. Because dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) is in short supply in many marine systems, it has been hypothesized that P is a growth-limiting nutrient for these species in nature. However, Trichodesmium is capable of hydrolyzing dissolved organic P (DOP) compounds and the inorganic products from hydrolysis may provide an additional source of P for growth. We investigated P dynamics and alkaline phosphatase activity in cultures and natural populations of Trichodesmium from the Atlantic Ocean and the north coast of …


Length-At-Age In Juvenile Patagonian Toothfish (Dissostichus Eleginoides), J. Ashford, C. Jones, S. Bobko, I. Everson Jan 2002

Length-At-Age In Juvenile Patagonian Toothfish (Dissostichus Eleginoides), J. Ashford, C. Jones, S. Bobko, I. Everson

OES Faculty Publications

We used the otoliths from a sample of Dissostichus eleginoides pre-recruits, whose length density was distinctly polymodal, to see whether ages estimated by reading otoliths were congruent with the length modes observed. Length densities by age were compared graphically with the overall length density observed. Additionally, ages were predicted for each fish based on length, and compared with ages estimated from reading otoliths in a goodness-of-fit test. The majority of the otoliths (83.6%) were estimated to be from fish 1+ or 2+ years old, with mean total lengths of 32.5 cm and 41.3 cm respectively. No difference was found between …


Effects Of Nonequilibrium Atmospheric Pressure Plasmas On The Heterotrophic Pathways Of Bacteria And On Their Cell Morphology, Mounir Laroussi, J. Paul Richardson, Fred C. Dobbs Jan 2002

Effects Of Nonequilibrium Atmospheric Pressure Plasmas On The Heterotrophic Pathways Of Bacteria And On Their Cell Morphology, Mounir Laroussi, J. Paul Richardson, Fred C. Dobbs

OES Faculty Publications

To date, most research on the interaction of nonequilibrium, atmospheric pressure plasma discharges with bacteria has concentrated on the germicidal effects. Therefore, published results deal mainly with killing efficacy and little attention is given to physical mechanisms and biochemical pathways and their potential alterations when cells of microorganisms are exposed to the plasma. In this letter, an attempt to investigate the effects of plasma exposure on the biochemical pathways of bacteria is presented. In addition, using electron microscopy, we investigate if any gross morphological changes take place when cells are exposed to a lethal dose of plasma. We are testing …


Microbial Ecology Of Ballast Water During A Transoceanic Voyage And The Effects Of Open-Ocean Exchange, Lisa A. Drake, Gregory M. Ruiz, Bella S. Galil, Timothy L. Mullady, Daniela O. Friedmann, Fred C. Dobbs Jan 2002

Microbial Ecology Of Ballast Water During A Transoceanic Voyage And The Effects Of Open-Ocean Exchange, Lisa A. Drake, Gregory M. Ruiz, Bella S. Galil, Timothy L. Mullady, Daniela O. Friedmann, Fred C. Dobbs

OES Faculty Publications

The only procedure used frequently to reduce the risk of invasion by ballast-mediated biota is open-ocean exchange of ballast water, a procedure in which vessels release coastal water and replace it with oceanic water. Limited information exists concerning the effects of transport upon the aquatic microbial community throughout transit and following open-ocean exchange, A transoceanic voyage aboard a commercial bulk carrier afforded us the opportunity to sample the microbial community in exchanged and unexchanged ballast-water holds during the journey from Hadera, Israel to Baltimore, USA. Five days following the exchange process, all microbial metrics tested (i.e. bacteria concentration, virus-like particle …


Impact Of Sea Grass Density On Carbonate Dissolution In Bahamian Sediments, David J. Burdige, Richard C. Zimmerman Jan 2002

Impact Of Sea Grass Density On Carbonate Dissolution In Bahamian Sediments, David J. Burdige, Richard C. Zimmerman

OES Faculty Publications

Carbonate dissolution has been widely observed in shallow water tropical sediments. However, sediment budgets C have generally not been closed with respect to the amount of acid required to produce the observed carbonate dissolution. Recently it has been suggested that enhanced oxygen transport into sediments through the roots and rhizomes of sea grasses might play a role in resolving this mass balance problem. We conducted studies of sea grass-carbonate sediment interactions around Lee Stocking Island, Exuma Islands, Bahamas to further examine this problem. Our studies showed that alkalinity, total dissolved inorganic carbon (ΣCO2) and Ca2+ increased with …

Adsorptive Immobilization Of Cytochrome C On Indium/Tin Oxide (Ito): Electrochemical Evidence For Electron Transfer-Induced Conformational Changes, Asma El Kasmi, Michael C. Leopold, Ryan Galligan, Rebecca T. Robertson, S. Scott Saavedra, Kacem El Kacemi, Edmond F. Bowden

Chemistry Faculty Publications

The adsorptive immobilization and electrochemistry of horse and yeast cytochrome c on indium/tin oxide (ITO) electrodes is reported. Near-monolayer coverage was achieved in pH 7 phosphate buffers of ionic strength equal to 10 and 50 mM, respectively, for the horse and yeast species. The layers exhibit very well-behaved voltammetry and are stable on the timescale of hours to days. Cyclic voltammetry revealed quasireversible behavior that is a product of both electron transfer (ET) kinetics and ET-induced conformational changes. A square scheme mechanism linking the redox states and the conformational states is proposed. Using a simple ET kinetic model that adequately …

Near Bandedge Optical Absorption Processes In Semi Insulating And N-Type Gaas, Tacetti̇n Yildirim, Sebahatti̇n Tüzemen, Seydi̇ Doğan, Beki̇r Gürbulak, Aytunç Ateş, Muhammet Yildirim Jan 2002

Near Bandedge Optical Absorption Processes In Semi Insulating And N-Type Gaas, Tacetti̇n Yildirim, Sebahatti̇n Tüzemen, Seydi̇ Doğan, Beki̇r Gürbulak, Aytunç Ateş, Muhammet Yildirim

Turkish Journal of Physics

Near bandedge optical absorption processes in semi-insulating (SI) GaAs and Te-doped n-type GaAs crystals were investigated in the temperature range 10--300 K. We observed absorption peaks whose maximum energies E_{m}, ranging from 1.498 to 1.485 eV decrease as the temperature increases from 10 K to 100 K. The peaks for both SI and n-type GaAs disappeared above 100 K. Extrapolating the graphs of E$_{g}-E_{m} versus temperature, we observed that near bandedge absorption is overlapped by the conduction band at about 220 K and 260 K for n-type and SI samples, respectively. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the absorption in the region …

Kinetics Of Light-Induced Metastable Defect Creation And Annealing In A-Si:H, Alp Osman Kodolbaş, Aynur Eray, Özcan Öktü

Turkish Journal of Physics

Constant Photocurrent Method (CPM) and steady state photoconductivity measurements are used to investigate the creation of light-induced metastable defects in a-Si:H at room temperature and their annealing. Light-induced metastable defect concentration N$_{d}$ varies with exposure time t_{e}as t_{e}^{r} with r=0.34\ pm 0.02, as expected from the recombination induced weak bond breaking model [1]. The validity of a stretched exponential model is also studied [2]. From the annealing experiments, the distribution of thermal annealing activation energies is calculated following the method proposed by Hata and Wagner [3]. Defects created at room temperature show a narrow distribution of annealing activation energies peaking …

The Contributions Of Anomalous Magnetic Moment To Relativistic Landau Orbits, Ali̇ Havare, Nuri̇ Ünal

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this work, the contributions of anomalous magnetic moment to relativistic Landau orbits are calculated by the method of self-field quantum electrodynamics. In addition to contributions from positive energy states new terms from negative energy states that have not been taken into account before are now also included. Contributions from these terms are found to be in the same order as positive terms.

The Determination Of Thermal Annealing Effect On A-Si:H Films Coated On Glass And On Single Crystalline Of Silicon, Necmi̇ Seri̇n, Tülay Seri̇n, Ali̇ Riza Özdemi̇r, Bora Alkan, Çeli̇k Tarimci, Basri̇ Ünal

Turkish Journal of Physics

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of thermal annealing on hydrogenated intrinsic amorphous silicon a-Si:H films. Hydrogenated intrinsic amorphous films were seperately coated on glass and single cyrstalline silicon substrates by means of d.c. magnetron sputtering technique. a-Si:H/glass and a-Si:H/c-Si samples were annealed in the temperature range of 23-250^oC, 23-200^oC and 600-1050^oC, respectively. The effect of annealing on the a-Si:H films were examined by means of Infrared vibrational transmittance spectrum technique (IR) in the wavenumber range 4000-400 cm^{-1} and Scanning Electron Microsope (SEM). The results were interpreted in terms of hydrogen diffusion.

Preparation And Anisotropic Elastic Property Of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O Whiskers, Khaliq A. Chaudhary, M. Arshad Choudhry

Turkish Journal of Physics

Flexible and superconducting Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O whiskers have been prepared by sintering the melt-quenched glassy powder at 830^oC in oxygen atmosphere. X-ray diffraction and a.c. susceptibility measurements reveal that the whiskers belong to 2212 phase with T_{c} = 79k. The whiskers possess high strength and flexibility along c-axis but were found to be weak and brittle when bent normal to the c-axis. The anisotropic micromechanical elastic property of the whiskers have been demonstrated under a low power optical microscope.


Filamentation Of Light Emission In An Infrared-Visible Image Converter With A Semiconductor Photodetector, Hi̇lal Yücel Kurt, H. S. Kiymaz, B. G. Salamov, K. Çolakoğlu Jan 2002

Filamentation Of Light Emission In An Infrared-Visible Image Converter With A Semiconductor Photodetector, Hi̇lal Yücel Kurt, H. S. Kiymaz, B. G. Salamov, K. Çolakoğlu

Turkish Journal of Physics

This work studies the light emission patterns associated with the spatial modulation of the transversal distribution of the current density in a converter cell with a GaAs semiconductor cathode. Such light emission exhibits spatial structures of current filaments depending on the feeding voltage, illumination intensity, gas pressure and the surface treatment of the electrodes. When the current is increased above the stable limit, breakdown or small current filamentations begin. However, n-GaAs exhibits an S-shaped current-density-field relation due to impact ionization of carriers from shallow donors into the conduction band under high electric fields. The assessment of the filament formation is …

Turkish Journal of Physics

The temperature dependence of Hall and magnetoresistance effects in n-type Si having a resistivity of 1400 {\Omega } cm at room temperature is studied in the temperature range of 210-320 K. The variation of transverse magnetoresistance as a function of temperature is similar to the longitudinal magnetoresistance variation in < 001 > and < 1\bar {1}0 > n-Si the samples. It is observed that, in < 001 > sample, the transverse and longitudinal magnetoresistance variation is greater than that in the < 1\bar {1}0 > sample. In both samples, the temperature dependences of magnetoresistance is in accordance to double space anisotropy parameters. In both samples, the transverse and longitudinal magnetoresistance coefficents increase with increasing …

Dependence Of Neutron-Proton Entity Transfer On Superfluid Parameters, Hüseyi̇n Ayteki̇n Jan 2002

Dependence Of Neutron-Proton Entity Transfer On Superfluid Parameters, Hüseyi̇n Ayteki̇n

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this study the nuclear matrix elements of neutron-proton (n-p) entity transfer of even-even nuclei are investigated in the Tamm-Dancoff Approximation (TDA). These matrix elements are used for n-p entity stripping from even-even nuclei and n-p entity absorbing of even-even nuclei. It is shown that the matrix element of 0^{+} \to 0^{+} transition between {\left {Z,N} \right\rangle} and {\left {Z - 2,N - 2} \right\rangle} even-even nuclei via the 1^{+} states of {\left {Z - 1,N - 1} \right\rangle} intermediate nuclei depends only on the superfluid parameters.

Micro-Crystallographic, Optical And Transport Studies Of Cd_{0.7} Zn_{0.3} Se : Sb Thin Films, D. S. Sutrave, G. S. Shahane, V. B. Patil, L. P. Deshmukh, B. D. Sarwade

Turkish Journal of Physics

Cd_{1-x}Zn_{x}Se thin film structures doped with various concentrations of trivalent antimony were chemically deposited onto glass-substrates. These structures were then characterised through the XRD, SEM, optical and electrical characterization techniques. The X-ray diffractograms of both as-prepared and Sb-doped samples were obtained and analysed. The analysis revealed that the samples are microcrystalline over the whole range of the doping concentration (0 to 2 mol %). It is striking that the intensities of hexagonal and cubic reflections of CdSe went on increasing with doping concentration upto 0.1 mol % and decreased with further increase in Sb^{3+} content in the film whereas peak …
