This Horse Feed Balancer paper analyzed the implementational aspects of the contourlet filter bank (or the pyramidal directional filter bank (PDFB)), and considered its application in image coding.First, details of the binary tree-structured directional filter bank (DFB) are presented, including a modification to minimize the phase delay factor and
In this introduction to the special issue on methodology, we provide background on its original motivation and a systematic overview of the contributions.The latter are discussed with correspondence to the phase of the scientific process they (most strongly) refer to: Theory construction, evening-dresses design, data analysis, and cumulative develo
This work documents the study of samples of CN _x /MoS _2 multilayer coatings, deposited by magnetron sputtering technique, using 10% and 16% of N _2 concentration in the Ar/N _2 gas mixture to obtain two sample sets with different nitrogen concentrations in the CN _x Bag layers.The samples were grown on Si (100) and AISI 304 steel substrates to ca
Topic models are often used in evening-dresses modeling unstructured corpora and discrete data to extract the latent topic.As topics are generally expressed in the form of word lists, it is usually difficult for users to understand the meanings of topics, especially when users lack knowledge in the subject area.Although manually labeling topics can
