This article presents an effective shape descriptor with a property of fast matching. This descriptor, called IDSC-wFW (a weighted Fourier and wavelet-like descriptor based on inner distance shape context), first rewrites shape histograms of IDSC descriptors, changing the histogram belonging to a point to the histogram belonging to a field, and sets the histogram of a field as a one-dimensional signal, then transforms this one-dimensional signal by using a Fourier transform and a transform similar to Haar wavelet. Finally, the two transform results are linearly combined to form a new descriptor. This new descriptor requires only a distance-based measure method during the matching stage. Experimental results on three well-known databases show that this new descriptor not only obtains accurate retrieval results but also runs fast.

Practical Applications

A shape descriptor is an effective tool for describing the shape feature of an object in remote sensing images. Researchers have put forward a lot of excellent descriptors. The discriminability of some descriptors is very strong in the experiments, but usually their computational cost is large, which makes them unsuitable to be used in practical applications. This paper proposes a new descriptor-FMSCCD (Fourier descriptor based on multiscale centroid contour distance)—which is a frequency domain descriptor based on the CCD (centroid contour distance) method, multiscale description, and Fourier transform. The principle of FMSCCD is simple, and the computational cost is very low. What is commendable is that its discriminability is still strong, and its compatibility with other features is also great. Experiments on three databases demonstrate its strong discriminability and operational efficiency.

Good Agreement

An original poling method using purely optical means and based on a dual-frequency interference process is presented. We show that the coherent superposition of two beams at fundamental and second-harmonic frequencies results in a polar field with an irreducible rotational spectrum containing both a vector and an octupolar component. This enables the method to be applied even to molecules without a permanent dipole such as octupolar molecules. After a theoretical analysis of the process, we describe different experiments aiming at light-induced noncentrosymmetry performed respectively on one-dimensional Disperse Red 1 and octupolar Ethyl Violet molecules. Macroscopic octupolar patterning of the induced order is demonstrated in both transient and permanent regimes. Experimental results show good agreement with theory.

Interaction Of Shock Waves

Abstract In continuation of the work on interaction between shock waves and magnetic fields 1,2 the experiments reported here measured the atomic and electron densities in the interaction region by means of an interferometric and a spectroscopic method. The transient atomic density was also calculated using a one-dimensional theory based on the work of Johnson3 , but modified to give an improved physical model. The experimental results were compared with the theoretical predictions.

Wavelet Descriptor

In many image analysis applications, such as image retrieval, the shape of an object is of primary importance. In this paper, a new shape descriptor, namely the Normalized Wavelet Descriptor (NWD), which is a generalization and extension of the Wavelet Descriptor (WD), is introduced. The NWD is compared to the Fourier Descriptor (FD), which in image retrieval experiments conducted by Zhang and Lu, outperformed even the Curvature Scale Space Descriptor (CSSD). Image retrieval experiments have been conducted using a dataset containing 2D-contours of 1400 objects extracted from the standard MPEG7 database. For the chosen dataset, our experimental results show that the NWD outperforms the FD.

The One

The structures of various ordered, but non-periodic, systems have been investigated and exhibit features which can be directly described by means of a construction which the authors call the shift lattice , which is a simple generalization of the concept of the lattice. This paper is devoted to a description of the properties of the one-dimensional shift lattice and its Fourier transform. Its applications to the phases related to L–Ta 2 O 5 and some Bi 2 TeO 5 -related systems are outlined and its relation to the theory of modulated structures and their Fourier transforms is briefly discussed.
