      Abstract (3932) HTML (0) PDF 507.03 K (5035) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:A method to animate water in Chinese painting is presented in this paper. This approach first detects positions of water forms in the hand drawn Chinese painting and synthesizes those forms using autoregressive model. Next, water forms are rendered using an image based rendering technique to produce water forms with the look of Chinese painting. Finally, water forms are animated in hand drawn environments thus the authors bring water forms in Chinese painting to life. The given examples demonstrate the capability of our method to capture the statistic properties associated with the sample data and to produce a variety of water forms for non-photorealistic animation.

    • 3D Geometric Constraint Solving with Conicoid

      Abstract:In general, most 3D parametric design systems use plane and sphere as basic tools to draw a three-dimensional diagram. In this paper, we introduce a class of new drawing tools: conicoid. The scope of three-dimensional diagram that can be drawn with conicoid is strictly larger than that with plane and sphere only. We prove that a diagram can be drawn with conicoid sequentially if and only if it can be described by a set of triangular equations of degree less than nine. Spatial Appolonius drawing problems can be completely solved with conicoid.

      Abstract:Illumination is an important aspect in realistic graphics rendering and most image related applications. The paper proposes a pure image based rendering method to synthesis the variation of illumination impacted on an object. Rather than estimating the BRDF function or any parameters in a reflectance model, Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is used to estimate a low dimensional approximation of the image set of a Lambertian object under both changing of illumination and geometrical pose. In the method, light directions are analytically derived from the samples and the base images as well as images with known of the class of the objects. Images with any novel lighting directions can be rendered very efficiently by properly linear combination of the base images. Smooth morphing sequence of lighting and pose variation can be generated by linear interpolation of the SVD coefficients. A feature of this method is that it supplies a simple and compact way to represent dataset and synthesize novel images, which lends it to be suitable for many image-based applications.

      Abstract:The convexity of curves and surfaces is an important property in the field of Computer Aided Geometric Design (CAGD). This paper tries to tackle the positive and convex problem of polynomials. Convexity can be solved by positivity. An algorithm for the positivity of polynomials is developed by extending the classic Sturm theorem. Hence, a necessary and sufficient condition for the positivity of polynomials of arbitrary degree is presented in this paper. A practical algorithm to express this condition in terms of the coefficients of the polynomials is also given.

      Abstract (3282) HTML (0) PDF 461.76 K (4471) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Reliable multicast is a useful network service but challenged by the Internet heterogeneity and the nonsupport of IP Multicast in wide-area Internet. In this paper, an application-level semantic reliable multicast (ASRM) is presented, which realizes application-level semantic reliable multicast data delivery. ASRM uses a hybrid way that combines unicast delivery with multicast delivery instead of using global IP multicast as the basis. ASRM provides a simpler and more natural way to name and locate the sessions.During the data forwarding,ASRM can use application-defined semantics to transcode content according to the transcoding models,rules and user'preferences.Thus,it can cope with the heterogeneity problem very well.ASRM is suitable for wide-area, limited scale,reliable multicast applications.

      Abstract:Lacking of feature validity maintaining function has become a serious problem with existing feature modeling systems. In this paper, a representation for feature validity condition based on the extended attributed adjacency graph is proposed, and a novel approach is particularly proposed to feature validity maintaining using local feature recognition technique. The approach can not only automatically detect if the feature validity is destroyed, but also accurately determine the reason why the feature becomes invalid and the state of the destroyed feature.Furthermore,the approach can automatically renovate feature model based on the user's intention.

      Abstract (3733) HTML (0) PDF 403.17 K (5075) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:It is difficult for conventional single population-based evolutionary algorithms (conventionalevolutionary algorithms-CEAs) to solve epistatic interaction problems. Based on computational model ofcooperative coevolution inspired by the coevolutionary phenomena of natural species, a coevolutionary algorithm (CoEA) for solving NK-landscape. problem is proposed. Some problems related to the interactions among species and individual s fitness computation are discussed. Mathematical analysis shows that the exponential increase. index of CoEA is higher than that of CEA for a schema which fitness is higher than the average fitness of population.Simulation results verify the theoretical result,and show that the coevolutionary algorithm is more efficient and effective than CEA in solving epistatic interactions problems.

      Abstract (3571) HTML (0) PDF 372.75 K (4677) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:The shot based classification and retrieval is very important for video database organization and access. In this paper, a new approach NFL (nearest feature line) used in shot retrieval is presented. Key-Frames in shot are looked as feature points to represent the shot in feature space. Lines connecting the feature points are further used to approximate the variations in the whole shot. The similarity between the query image and the shots in video database are measured by calculating the distance between the query image and the feature lines in feature space.To make it more suitable to video data,the original NFL method by adding constrains on the feature lines is improved.Experimental results show that the improved NFL method is better than the traditional classification methods such as the nearest neighbor(NN)and the nearest center(NC).

      Abstract (3593) HTML (0) PDF 640.93 K (5049) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:In order to satisfy the quality of service (QoS) of the application on Internet, Internet engineering task force (IETF) has presented a set of network service mode such as IntServ/RSVP (Integrated Service/Resource Reservation Protocol), DiffServ (differentiated service) and MPLS (multi protocol label switching). All of these service modes need a correlative QoS routing mechanism and algorithm to assign an adapted route. Based on the research of existing routing algorithms, a new pre-computed QoS routing algorithm CCPF(classified minimum cost path first)is put forward,which uses bandwidth as a basic metric and gives a weighted cost function as a path optimal criterion.By simulation,this algorithm is compared with the others.The results show that it can get differet routes among different bandwidth-ranges to support multipl service modes.

      Abstract (3412) HTML (0) PDF 270.06 K (4427) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Name resolution mechanism is a very important field in the research of mobile agent technology. At present, for complexity of the algorithm, it is difficult for most traditional DNS-based name resolution mechanisms to implement position independent access of mobile object at application level. But it is convenient to construct communication model and navigation model for mobile agent system using global and position independent name resolution. In order to build a global/universal naming method and resolve position transparent problem at application level in mobile agent system,a name resolution mechanism--UON(universal object naming)is presented in this paper.Finally the detailed inolenebtation and the related algorithm are desctibed in three aspects(object registration,object move and mobile object access).

      Abstract (3436) HTML (0) PDF 505.34 K (5381) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Internet is facing two problems simultaneously: a faster switching/routing infrastructure and guaranteed quality-of-service (QoS). Each problem can be solved independently. High performance routers can be made faster by using input-queued crossbars instead of shared memory systems. QoS can be provided by usingpacket fair queuing (PFQ) algorithm. Until now, however, the two solutions have been mutually exclusive-all ofthe work on PFQ algorithm has required that routers use output-queuing or centralize shared menory.In this paper, on the basis of CIOQ(combined input output queuing)architecture,a packt scheduling algorithm DF2Q(distributed feedback fair queeuing)is designed and implemented.The most important feature of this algorithm is the introducing of feedback mechanism.the perfomance of DF2Qis analyzed and discussed.Experimental resuts show that it can avoid internal congestion effectively and improve the efficiency of resource utilizing.

      Abstract (3049) HTML (0) PDF 524.46 K (4594) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Coordination is one of the basic problems in distributed component systems. But up to now this problem has not been solved yet properly. According to the real application, the Concerto model is proposed, which is based on Petri net. Expanding the semantics of Petri net, Concerto model introduces control buffer and data buffer, which reflect the control dependency and data dependency respectively, to unify the present control-driven and data-driven coordination models. For the execution of Concerto model, driving mode,action rule and Concerto engine are forward.There are four kind of driving modes, depended on operation time,minimal time,maximal time and average time respectively.They are useful in application domains such as real-time systems,flow controlling,and task scheduling.As the core of model execution,Concerto engine controls the coordination of distrbuted component system by following certain arbitration rule, which resolves the deadlock and starvation.

      Abstract (3478) HTML (0) PDF 422.67 K (4413) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Line drawing is a fundamental task for raster graphics. Any acceleration of the traditional line drawing process is of great significance. In this paper, a new line drawing algorithm is presented. The algorithm differs from the traditional line drawing algorithm in that a line is directly represented as a series of displacement codes consisting of 0 s and 1 s, which can be easily determined from a formula. Based upon periodic characteristics of the codes, a new adaptive multi-pixel line drawing algorithm is put forward.Both exerimental results and analysis show this algorithm greatly reduces the computation of line drawing and accelrates the line drawing process.

    • An Opponent Agent Model Based on BDI

      Abstract (3592) HTML (0) PDF 335.30 K (4758) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Developing on opponent model, recognizing intentions and plans are necessary for effective communication in MAS. BDI is an effective way to describe mental state, which can be used to develop a generic opponent mental state model. As current research on the opponent mode focus on implications from unilateral action, they neither express simultaneous intentions and other relations, nor provide support to making decisions making at real time. A generic opponent agent model based on BDI developed in this paper improves the research done by AnandS.Rao and Milind Tamde.

      Abstract:After analyzing the feature of open surfaces, simple close surfaces and multiple connected close surfaces, a 3D triangulation algorithm which doesn t need partition the surface is proposed in this paper. In the 3D triangulation process, the triangular net spreads from the boundary of triangulated field to untreated field, and finally covers the whole surface. This algorithm can apply to the scattered data points on open surfaces, simple close surfaces and multiple connected close surfaces. The experimental results show that this algorithm can satisfy foundation for the surface reconstruction in the next step.

      Abstract:The traditional layered scalabilities can not satisfy the requirements of various multimedia applications commendably. The codecs need to provide rate scalability. In this paper, a high performance embedded bit stream is produced by adopting an improved version of zerotree wavelet coding algorithm and a rate scalable video codec is implemented. However, in the rate scalable coding scheme, a single bit stream needs to keep coding effectiveness in a wider range of bit rates. The performance of the existing solutions can not improve the qualities of the reconstructed frames effectively when the target bit rate is increased.It is pointed out that besides error propagation, the rate scalable algorithm needs to give attention to the frame dependency,then a new algorithm is proposed.The experimental results sgow thow that the proposed algorithm can make the single bit srteam produce better qualities at various data rates.This algorithm can also be used in other rate scalable coding schemes that adopt motion compensation to reduce the temporal redundancy.

      Abstract:Task scheduling is one of the crucial factors influencing the efficiency of a network of workstations. Fork-Join task graphs can represent many parallel structures. All of the existing algorithms which schedule Fork-Join task graphs have ignored the problem that communications cannot be executed in parallel in non-fully-connected NOW, and some of algorithms with high efficiency even did not take the problem of how to save the processors into account. In this paper, a new static task scheduling algorithm called TSA_FJ is proposed,which is based on task duplication and trying to synthetically take the problems of schedule length shortening,unparallel communications and processor saving into account.By randomly generating the task execution time and communication time,several fork-Join task graphs are got and the scheduling results of TSA_FJ are compared with that of other algorithms for the generated task graphs.It shows that TSA_FJ algorithm has the shortest scheduling length and uses much less processors.It is much suitable to non-fully-connected NOW.

      Abstract (3470) HTML (0) PDF 435.65 K (4894) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:UML is a powerful language for object-oriented modeling, but it has some explicit drawbacks. For example, it lacks a model check mechanism so it is difficult to keep the consistence of Meta Model. Moreover, the code building of UML is so scant in spite of the strong power on the OOP analysis and design steps. All of these bring lots of inconvenience in the system building. In this paper, the UML modeling environment is extended by using object-process diagram (OPD), through which people can set a uniform standard for multi-modeling and make the extended UML has the ability of both OOP analyusis and design and visible program design.

      Abstract:The automatic optimization of enterprise process model parameters is an optimization problem of the objectives and parameters system. This problem can be changed into the issue solving only one objective and parameters the system optimization with by linearity weighting method. Based on it, an automatic optimization technique in enterprise process modeling based on computer simulation is discussed in this paper, which combines FR (fletcher-reeves) method and TS (tabu-search) algorithm. The technique uses FR method to obtain the local optimization solutions,and uses TS algorithm to discover the global pptimum in the sense of probability.The concept of tabu-area table is firstly proposed,and the rabu-list is improved from the the two dimensions array to one dimension array,which uses to record the trace of optimize of optimize of the process model.FR method is improved by introducing search direction determining while near to the local optimization solutions so as to solve the peak and aigzag curve problem.The new technique can be generalized for model parameters optimization in the arbitrary curves,and be instructive for enterprise to implement BPR(business process reengineering)and ERP(enterprise resource planning)management.

      Abstract:In order to solve two difficult problems of premature convergence and slow searching speed of genetic algorithms in evolution neural network, a heuristic mutation operator is presented in this paper. Adaptive probability of mutation and heuristic mutation points selected is applied in it. When no evolution appears after many generations, the range of search will be extended by increasing probability of mutation, and a fine search will be started. The experiments of XOR problem demonstrate that the operator has fine adility of speedy convergence and maintains the diversity of the population automatically.

      Abstract:Anaphoric resolution is a hot field in computational linguistics. According to the research, it is found that a kind of anaphora, meta-anaphora, which represents the form of sentence, paragraph or discourse (not the subject or object of the sentence), plays an important role in discourse. So meta-anaphoric resolution affects the computer s ability of discourse understanding. This paper focuses on the meta-anaphoric resolution. A new concept called Elementary Event focus (EE_focus) is introduced. And some meta-anaphoric resolition algorithms based on the concept are desinged.The algorithms examined by a large Chinese natural language corpus.The experimental results show that the EE_focus set can do good job in meat-anaphoric resolution.The workenriches the theory of discourse's structural representation.It is important in comfirming the cohesion and coherence of the Chinese discourses.

      Abstract:Traditional conceptual design methods cannot express designers intent directly because of the lacking of 3D interface mechanisms. Conceptual design based on virtual prototype can not only provide a 3D virtual design environment, but also meet the needs of low costs, short cycle and flexibility of modern design. Considering the characteristics of conceptual design and the feature classification of virtual prototype, a novel virtual prototype-based product model V-desModel in conceptual design is presented in this paper.It introduces virtual feature concept in product's view models,and employs expandable 3D entity-constraint graph to describe the constraints between design objects.V-desModel can effectively support the process of cooperative design and concurrent design.By employing the concept of virtual feature and method of virtual feature generation,V-desModel can solve the insufficient information problems in constructing virtual prototype during the conceptual design of product.It can not only expangd the means and ranges of conceptual design,but also be beneficial for the exertion of creativtity during conceptual design.

      Abstract:While facing the challenge of e-commerce, the enterprises pay more attention to the business process re-engineering (BPR). A reasonable model to describe the business process is the key point to BPR sucess. Such a model should integrate all related business information and should be enacted by a system. Referencing on the WfMC (workflow management coalition) meta-model, a workflow model based on ECA rules and business activity decomposition is presented. The ECA rules imply the execution dependencies among the zctivities.Using rewriting techniques,the ECA(event-condition-action)model is transformed to Trigger-Action model to make the interpreation more efficient.Rewriting the event to the occurrence time of the event makes the event expression have more expressive semantics.Activity decomposition model can support the hierarchical project management.

      Abstract (3830) HTML (0) PDF 425.99 K (5731) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:The existing form frame line detection algorithms are either time consuming or with low robustness. Furthermore, all these approaches do not use the constraint information between form frame lines. In this paper, a novel bottom-up form frame line detection algorithm is proposed based on the directional single-connected chain (DSCC). Defined as an array of black pixel run-lengths, DSCC works very well as an image structure element or a vector in this vectorization algorithm. By merging multiple DSCCs under some constraints,people are able to extract the form frame lines automatically yut fast.With the help of the con straints between form frame lines,the robustness of the approach is increased drastically by getting rid of pseudo lines and completing broken lines.Byfiltering DSCCs created by noise and speeding up the merging of DSCCs,the speed of this algorithm is comparable with the well-known projection method.Experimental results show that this algorithm is fast,resistant to moderate serious line break and skew of any angle.

      Abstract:Zerotree-Based wavelet coders, EZW and SPIHT, are two excellent coding algorithms currently, but the imperfect point is that they need more bits to express the parent-children relationship. The another coder based on the morphological representation of wavelet data (MRWD) is also successful, but the shortage is that it doesn t use the interband similarity of wavelet coefficients. In this paper, a new wavelet-based coder is developed by taking the advantages of the above coders and based on morphology. The main property of the new coder is that it uses following characteristics of waveler coefficients;(1)within-subband clustering of significant coefficients;(2)cross-subband similarity;(3)decay of magitude of waveletcoefficients acrooss subband.The advantage of the new coder is to utilize the property of intraband clustering and interband similarity to predict the interband clusters based on morphological operator and then to overcome the shortages of the above three.Wxperimental resuts results show that the performance of the new coder is to utilize the property of intraband clustering and interband similarity to predict the interband clusters based on morphological operator and then to overcome the shortages of the above three coders.Experimental results show that the performance of the new coder is superior ti the above coders.In specially,the new coder has the outstanding performance for the images including a large portion portion of texture.For xeample,for Barbara image 512×521,at 0.25b/p, the new coder outperforms EZW,SPIHT and MRWD and MRWD by 1.68dB,and0.59dB.

      Abstract:With the increasing of Internet traffic, the RED (random early detection) algorithm depending on the average queue length has inherent flaws. RED cannot efficiently prevent the packet loss even if it combines with explicit congestion notification (ECN). Based on comparison between RED and BLUE, an enhanced active queue management mechanism, EBLUE (enhanced BLUE), is presented. The TCP congestion control with EBLUE is researched, and the token bucket is used to mark priority traffic at the network entry in order to provide the minimum rate guarantees.Finally,under the NS environment,the simulated experiment and performance evaluation are done in packet loss percent and link efficiency for EBLUE by comparing the mechanism with relative ones.The experimental results show that this mechanism can support bandwidth reserbation services effiiently.

      Abstract:In this paper, the shape variation law of Bezier surfaces, B-spline surfaces and NURBS surfaces (BBN surfaces) is investigated under the modification of a control point of the surfaces. The relationship between the geometric elements of the surface before and after deformation and the deforming displacement is built up by decomposition a BBN surface into the summation of a convex surface and a surface with special shape.

      Abstract (3671) HTML (0) PDF 440.14 K (4751) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:The design and implementation of the remote file browser (RFB) based on Java/CORBA is introduced in this paper, which is developed for Dawning3000 parallel machine. On traditional parallel machines, users organize and manage the file system through command line interface, which makes users feel very inconvenient. To solve this problem, a GUI-based file browser is implemented to support the access to the file system of parallel machines. The RFB employs client/server mode, and separates GUI from the implementation of the access to file system.Here,GUI is implementes with language and Java GUI Swing package,which make it platform-independent,and communiction between client and server is implementes with currently prevalent CORBA middleware.The RFB supports remote access to the file system of parallel machines within both local area network and wide area network,and hides the differnce of client platform and location of paralle machines,which highly improves the usability of parallel machines.
