This paper describes a Bayesian framework for performing relational graph matching by discrete relaxation. Our basic aim is to draw on this provide comparative evaluation of number contrasting approaches matching. Broadly speaking there are two main aspects study. Firstly we focus the issue how inexactness may be quantified. We illustrate that several popular distance measures can recovered as specific limiting cases consistency measure. The second aspect our comparison concerns way in which...
Characteristic increases in neuronal activity coincident with the pulsatile release of luteinizing hormone from pituitary gland have been recorded electrodes chronically implanted medial basal hypothalamus rhesus monkey. This electrophysiologic manifestation hypothalamic 'pulse generator' which governs secretion releasing provides, for first time, direct access to central component neuroendocrine control system regulates reproductive processes this higher primate.
In order to study the relation between heavy rainfall, shallow pore pressures, and slope stability in hillslopes susceptible debris flows, we have been observing flows measuring rainfall hillslope pressures a 10-km 2 area central Santa Cruz Mountains near La Honda, California. A simple numerical model, based on physical analogy of leaky barrel, can simulate significant features interaction shallow-hillslope pressures. barrel is filled at rate equal intensity drained product water level...
Graph structures have proven computationally cumbersome for pattern analysis. The reason this is that, before graphs can be converted to vectors, correspondences must established between the nodes of which are potentially different size. To overcome problem, in paper, we turn spectral decomposition Laplacian matrix. We show how elements matrix used construct symmetric polynomials that permutation invariants. coefficients these as graph features encoded a vectorial manner. extend...
The first combined multiple pulse-magic angle experiment is reported in which both homonuclear dipole interactions and chemical shift anisotropies are removed to resolve chemically shifted fluorines. sample selected was KEL-F.(AIP)
A decomposable mixed-integer programming model for simultaneous economic consideration of unit commitment and short-term dispatch thermal power generating equipment is presented. An optimum solution procedure described which takes advantage the structure promises computational efficiency in practical applications. Characterizing demand forecast as a discretized function permits probabilistic to be incorporated scheduling model. The minimizes total expected costs start-up, shutdown, operating...

Many computer vision and pattern recognition problems may be posed as the analysis of a set dissimilarities between objects. For many types data, these are not euclidean (i.e., they do represent distances points in space), therefore cannot isometrically embedded space. Examples include shape-dissimilarities, graph mesh geodesic distances. In this paper, we provide means embedding such non-euclidean data onto surfaces constant curvature. We aim to embed on space whose radius curvature is...
Continuous monitoring of the electrophysiological manifestations GnRH pulse generator activity was achieved by radiotelemetry throughout menstrual cycles unrestrained rhesus monkeys. The characteristic increases in hypothalamic multiunit (MUA volleys) associated with each LH measured peripheral circulation were lower frequency during luteal phase than follicular cycle. Multiunit volley increased as functional luteolysis progressed and maxima approximately one per hour within first few days...
Characteristic increases in neuronal electrical activity associated with the initiation of each LH pulse were recorded from ovariectomized rhesus monkeys bearing multiple chronic electrodes medial basal hypothalamus. These electrophysiological manifestations hypothalamic LHRH generator inhibited by α-adrenergic blocker phentolamine or α-adrenoceptor blockers phenoxybenzamine and prazosin. At dosages used, effects single injections these drugs ranged a reduction frequency to its complete...

The success of kernel methods has initiated the design novel positive semidefinite functions, in particular for structured data. A leading paradigm this is convolution kernel, which decomposes objects into their parts and sums over all pairs parts. Assignment kernels, contrast, are obtained from an optimal bijection between parts, can provide a more valid notion similarity. In general however, assignments yield indefinite complicates use methods. We characterize class base kernels used to...
Non-rigid 3D shape retrieval has become a research hotpot in communities of computer graphics, vision, pattern recognition, etc. In this paper, we present the results SHREC'15 Track: Shape Retrieval. The aim track is to provide fair and effective platform evaluate compare performance current non-rigid methods developed by different groups around world. database utilized consists 1200 watertight triangle meshes which are equally classified into 50 categories.

With the development of deep learning in remote sensing (RS) image change detection (CD), dependence CD models on labeled data has become an important problem. To make better use comparatively resource-saving unlabeled data, method based semi-supervised (SSL) is worth further study. This article proposes a reliable contrastive (RCL) for RS CD. First, according to task characteristics CD, we design loss changed areas enhance model's feature extraction ability objects. Then, improve quality...
In the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta), frequency of pulsatile gonadotropic hormone release is relatively constant in face widely varying levels estradiol (E2) peripheral circulation--e.g., course follicular phase menstrual cycle and after ovariectomy. This suggests that modulation hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing (GnRH) "pulse generator" by this steroid not major physiological importance. Herein described unexpected inhibition or total blockade electrical activity pulse generator...
