With the advantages of convenient access and free parking, urban dockless shared bikes are favored by the public. However, the irregular flow of dockless shared bikes poses a challenge for the research of flow pattern. In this paper, the flow characteristics of dockless shared bikes are expounded through the analysis of the time series location data of ofo and mobike shared bikes in Beijing. Based on the analysis, a model called DestiFlow is proposed to describe the spatio-temporal flow of urban dockless shared bikes based on points of interest (POIs) clustering. The results show that the DestiFlow model can find the aggregation areas of dockless shared bikes and describe the structural characteristics of the flow network. Our model can not only predict the demand for dockless shared bikes, but also help to grasp the mobility characteristics of citizens and improve the urban traffic management system.

It is often desirable in transmission electron microscopy to know the vertical spacing of points of interest within a specimen. However, in order to measure a stereo effect, one must have two pictures of the same area taken from different angles, and one must have also a formula for converting measured differences between corresponding points (parallax) into a height differential.Assume (a) that the impinging beam of electrons can be considered as a plane wave and (b) that the magnification is the same at the top and bottom of the specimen. The first assumption is good when the illuminating system is overfocused. The second assumption (the so-called “perspective error”) is good when the focal length is large (3 x 107Å) in relation to foil thickness (∼103 Å).

Cost reduction and availability of specialized hardware for image processing have made it reasonable to purchase a stand-alone interactive work station for computer aided analysis of micrographs. Some features of such a system are: 1) Ease of selection of points of interest on the micrograph. A cursor can be quickly positioned and coordinates entered with a switch. 2) The image can be nondestructively zoomed to a higher magnification for closer examination and roaming (panning) can be done around the picture. 3) Contrast and brightness of the picture can be varied over a very large range by changing the display look-up tables. 4) Marking items of interest can be done by drawing circles, vectors or alphanumerics on an additional memory plane so that the picture data remains intact. 5) Color pictures can easily be produced. Since the human eye can detect many more colors than gray levels, often a color encoded micrograph reveals many features not readily apparent with a black and white display. Colors can be used to construct contour maps of objects of interest. 6) Publication quality prints can easily be produced by taking pictures with a standard camera of the T.V. monitor screen.

The purpose of this study is to (1) analyzing the level of retail mix consumer satisfaction; (2) analyze the dominant variable in retail mix consumer satisfaction; (3) analyze the difference of retail mix consumer satisfaction performed. The observed of the retail industry is Alfamidi and Indomaret. The study was designed into a descriptive-quantitative method. The source of primary data obtained from the questionnaire of 100 respondents. The formulating variable of retail mix includes: merchandise assortments, pricing, customer services Store design and display, communication mix, and location. Data analyze by using descriptive, analysis of factors, and t-test. The result confirmed that the level of retail mix consumer satisfaction in both industry is relatively similar. However, it can be stated that the respondents were more satisfied to Indomaret compared with Alfamart.

The issue of picture denoising is one of the most established in the field, is as yet getting extensive focus from the exploration zone due to consistently expanding interest for sensibly valued great media and in additament its part as a pre-preparing venture for picture division, pressure, and so on, because of high spatial being without a vocation of mundane pictures, nearby averaging of the pixels impressively abate the commotion while bulwark the first structure of the picture. To enhance the execution of the essential channels, more compelling sifting calculations including the exchanging vector channels and the amalgamation vector. In spite of the fact that there are different sifting calculations to cull, the more preponderant part of them is not outfit predicated. Multifarious Median Filter (AMF) performs well at low commotion densities. Be that as it may, at high filter densities the window measure must be expanded which may prompt obscuring the picture. In exchanging middle channel the cull depends on Re-characterized limit esteem. The paramount downside of this technique is that characterizing a vigorous cull is onerous. Supplementally these channels won't consider the nearby highlights because of which points of interest and edges may not be recouped severely, concretely when the filter level is high. To vanquish the above downside, Decision Predicated Algorithm (DBA) is proposed. In this, the picture is denoised by utilizing a 3x3 window. On the off chance that the preparing pixel esteem is 0 or 255 it is handled or else it is left unaltered. At high commotion thickness the middle esteem will be 0 or 255 which is boisterous. The goal of disuniting is to expel the driving forces so the commotion free picture is planarity recouped with least flag bending. Filter (Clamor) expulsion can be accomplished by utilizing sundry subsisting direct dissevering procedures which are main stream as a result of their numerical straightforwardness and the presence of the assembling direct framework hypothesis. In spite of the fact that middle channels expel motivation clamor without harming the edges, the prodigious majority of them work consistently over the picture and in this way have a propensity to alter both commotion and clamor free pixels. Preferably, the disuniting ought to be connected just to debased pixels while leaving uncorrupted pixels in place. We propose a novel calculation for clamor diminishment in light of UBTMF for Colour pictures.

Data Technology industry has been utilizing the customary social databases for around 40 years. Be that as it may, in the latest years, there was a generous transformation in the IT business as far as business applications. Remain solitary applications have been supplanted with electronic applications, conferred servers with different proper servers and committed stockpiling with framework stockpiling. Lower expense, adaptability, the model of pay-as-you-go are the fundamental reasons, which caused the conveyed processing are transformed into reality. This is a standout amongst the hugest upsets in Information Technology, after the development of the Internet. Cloud databases, Big Table, Sherpa, and SimpleDB are getting the opportunity to be more natural to groups. They featured the hindrances of current social databases as far as convenience, adaptability, and provisioning. Cloud databases are basically utilized for data raised applications, for example, stockpiling and mining of gigantic information or business information. These applications are adaptable and multipurpose in nature. Various esteem based data organization applications, such as managing an account, online reservation, e-exchange and stock organization, and so on are delivered. Databases with the help of these sorts of uses need to incorporate four essential highlights: Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability (ACID), in spite of the fact that utilizing these databases isn't basic for utilizing as a part of the cloud. The objective of this paper is to discover the points of interest and disservices of databases generally utilized in cloud frameworks and to survey the difficulties in creating cloud databases
