This paper describes about signal resampling based on polynomial interpolation is reversible for all types of signals, i.e., the original signal can be reconstructed losslessly from the resampled data. This paper also discusses Matrix factorization method for reversible uniform shifted resampling and uniform scaled and shifted resampling. Generally, signal resampling is considered to be irreversible process except in some special cases because of strong attenuation of high frequency components. The matrix factorization method is actually a new way to compute linear transform. The factorization yields three elementary integer-reversible matrices. This method is actually a lossless integer-reversible implementation of linear transform. Some examples of lower order resampling solutions are also presented in this paper.

AbstractThe severe side effects of some drugs can threaten the lives of patients and financially jeopardize pharmaceutical companies. Computational methods utilizing chemical, biological, and phenotypic features have been used to address this problem by predicting the side effects. Among these methods, the matrix factorization method, which utilizes the side-effect history of different drugs, has yielded promising results. However, approaches that encapsulate all the characteristics of side-effect prediction have not been investigated to date. To address this gap, we applied the logistic matrix factorization algorithm to a database of spontaneous reports to construct a prediction with higher accuracy. We expressed the distinction in the importance of drug-side effect pairs by a weighting strategy and addressed the cold-start problem via an attribute-to-feature mapping method. Consequently, our proposed model improved the prediction accuracy by 2.5% and efficiently handled the cold-start problem. The proposed methodology is expected to benefit applications such as warning systems in clinical settings.

It is well known that the structure information on the specimen is not always faithfully transferred through the electron microscope. Firstly, the spatial frequency spectrum is modulated by the transfer function (TF) at the focal plane. Secondly, the spectrum suffers high frequency cut-off by the aperture (or effectively damping terms such as chromatic aberration). While these do not have essential effect on imaging crystal periodicity as long as the low order Bragg spots are inside the aperture, although the contrast may be reversed, they may change the appearance of images of amorphous materials completely. Because the spectrum of amorphous materials is continuous, modulation of it emphasizes some components while weakening others. Especially the cut-off of high frequency components, which contribute to amorphous image just as strongly as low frequency components can have a fundamental effect. This can be illustrated through computer simulation. Imaging of a whitenoise object with an electron microscope without TF limitation gives Fig. 1a, which is obtained by Fourier transformation of a constant amplitude combined with random phases generated by computer.

Background: Lung cancer is one of the common malignant tumors. The successful diagnosis of lung cancer depends on the accuracy of the image obtained from medical imaging modalities. Objective: The fusion of CT and PET is combining the complimentary and redundant information both images and can increase the ease of perception. Since the existing fusion method sare not perfect enough, and the fusion effect remains to be improved, the paper proposes a novel method called adaptive PET/CT fusion for lung cancer in Piella framework. Methods: This algorithm firstly adopted the DTCWT to decompose the PET and CT images into different components, respectively. In accordance with the characteristics of low-frequency and high-frequency components and the features of PET and CT image, 5 membership functions are used as a combination method so as to determine the fusion weight for low-frequency components. In order to fuse different high-frequency components, we select the energy difference of decomposition coefficients as the match measure, and the local energy as the activity measure; in addition, the decision factor is also determined for the high-frequency components. Results: The proposed method is compared with some of the pixel-level spatial domain image fusion algorithms. The experimental results show that our proposed algorithm is feasible and effective. Conclusion: Our proposed algorithm can better retain and protrude the lesions edge information and the texture information of lesions in the image fusion.

Speckles are inherent to SAR. They hide and undermine several relevant information contained in the SAR images. In this paper, a despeckling algorithm using the shrinkage of two-dimensional discrete orthonormal S-transform (2D-DOST) coefficients in the transform domain along with shock filter is proposed. Also, an attempt has been made as a post-processing step to preserve the edges and other details while removing the speckle. The proposed strategy involves decomposing the SAR image into low and high-frequency components and processing them separately. A shock filter is used to smooth out the small variations in low-frequency components, and the high-frequency components are treated with a shrinkage of 2D-DOST coefficients. The edges, for enhancement, are detected using a ratio-based edge detection algorithm. The proposed method is tested, verified, and compared with some well-known models on C-band and X-band SAR images. A detailed experimental analysis is illustrated.

Abstract We propose a matrix analogue of a general inverse series relation with an objective to introduce the generalized Humbert matrix polynomial, Wilson matrix polynomial, and the Rach matrix polynomial together with their inverse series representations. The matrix polynomials of Kiney, Pincherle, Gegenbauer, Hahn, Meixner-Pollaczek etc. occur as the special cases. It is also shown that the general inverse matrix pair provides the extension to several inverse pairs due to John Riordan [An Introduction to Combinatorial Identities, Wiley, 1968].

AbstractBased on a corpus study conducted using the GerManC corpus (1650–1800), the paper sketches the functional and sociosymbolic development of subordinate clause constructions introduced by the subjunctor da ‘since’ in different text genres. In the second half of the 17th and the first half of the 18th century, the da clauses were characterized by semantic vagueness: Besides temporal, spatial and causal relations, the subjunctor established conditional, concessive, and adversative links between clauses. The corpus study reveals that different genres are crucial to the readings of da clauses. Spatial and temporal usages, for example, occur more often in sermons than in other genres. The conditional reading, in contrast, strongly tends to occur in legal texts, where it displays very high frequency. This could be the reason why da clauses carry indexical meaning in contemporary German and are associated with formal language. Over the course of the 18th century, the causal usages increase in all genres. Surprisingly, these causal da clauses tend to be placed in front of the matrix clause despite the overall tendency of causal clauses to follow the matrix clause.

We show that using Dunford-Taylor’s integral, a classical tool of functional analysis, it is possible to derive an expression for the inverse of a general non-singular complex-valued tridiagonal matrix. The special cases of Jacobi’s symmetric and Toeplitz (in particular symmetric Toeplitz) matrices are included. The proposed method does not require the knowledge of the matrix eigenvalues and relies only on the relevant invariants which are determined, in a computationally effective way, by means of a dedicated recursive procedure. The considered technique has been validated through several test cases with the aid of the computer algebra program Mathematica©.

This paper is concerned with properties of the algebraic degree of the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of phase-type (PH) distributions. The main problem of interest is: given a PH generator, how do we find the maximum and the minimum algebraic degrees of all irreducible PH representations with that PH generator? Based on the matrix exponential (ME) order of ME distributions and the spectral polynomial algorithm, a method for computing the algebraic degree of a PH distribution is developed. The maximum algebraic degree is identified explicitly. Using Perron-Frobenius theory of nonnegative matrices, a lower bound and an upper bound on the minimum algebraic degree are found, subject to some conditions. Explicit results are obtained for special cases.
