1 Mathews, V. JohnAdaptive unsharp masking for contrast enhancementABSTRACT A new scheme o,f unsharp masking for image contrast enhancement is presented in this paper. An adaptive algorithm is introduced so that a sharpening action is performed only in locations where the image exhibits significant dynamics. Hence, the amplification of noise in smooth areas i...1997
2 Myers, Chris J.An asynchronous implementations of the MAXLIST algorithmABSTRACT We present an efficient asynchronous VLSI architecture for calculating running maximum or minimum values over a sliding window. Running maximums or minimums are very useful for many signal and image processing tasks. Our architecture performs the calculation using the MAXLIST algorithm. In...1997
3 Stringfellow, Gerald B.;Inglefield, Colin E.;Taylor, P. CraigCharacterization of unicompositional GaInP2 ordering heterostructures grown by variation of V/III ratioPhotoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopies are employed to investigate single heterostructures based on two GaInP2 layers that have the same composition but different degrees of order on the cation sublattice. Four sample configurations are studied: two complemen...Heterostructures; Growth parameters; Growth temperature1997
4 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Compositional modulation and ordering in semiconductorsThe science of materials as a specific discipline is a relatively modern development. Within this rather modern field, the study of semiconductor materials is an even more recent development. Modern textbooks on materials science focus primarily on the properties of metals and second on the properti...Materials scientists; Controlled ordering1997
5 Mathews, V. John; Schlegel, ChristianComputationally efficient multiuser detection for coded CDMAAbstract: Computationally efficient multiuser detection for coded asynchronous CDMA systems is investigated. The particular receiver studied is a near-far resistant multi-user detector known as the projection receiver (PR) [originally developed in [1, 2]]. The PR perfoms multiple access interference...1997
6 Furse, Cynthia M.; Gandhi, Om P.Computations of SAR distributions for two anatomically-based models of the human head using CAD files of commercial telephones and the parallelized FDTD codeThe Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method is well suited for the computation of bio-electromagnetic effects and has become the method of choice for most researchers in this area. There does however remain some limitations on its use. Firstly the FDTD method requires large amounts of memory and...Finite-difference time-domain method; FDTD; SAR distributions; CAD files1997
7 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Effect of growth rate on step structure and ordering in GaInPCuPt ordering is widely observed in GaInP epitaxial layers grown by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy. The formation of this spontaneously ordered structure during epitaxial growth is intimately related to the atomic-scale physical processes occurring on the surface, specifically surface reconst...Atomic force microscopy; Organometallic vapor phase; Crystallographic plane1997
8 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Effects of V/III ratio on ordering and antiphase boundaries in GaInP layersTransmission electron microscope (TEM) and transmission electron diffraction (TED) studies have been performed to investigate the effects of V/III ratio on ordering and antiphase boundaries (APBs) in organometallic vapor phase epitaxial Ga0.5In0.5P layers grown onto (001) GaAs vicinal substrates ...Antiphase boundaries; APB; Heterostructures; Organometallics1997
9 Myers, Chris J.Efficient timing analysis algorithms for timed state space exploration*Abstract This paper presents new timing analysis algorithms for efficient state space exploration during timed circuit synthesis. Timed circuits are a class of asynchronous circuits that incorporate explicit timing information in the specification which is used throughout the synthesis procedure t...1997
10 Myers, Chris J.Interfacing synchronous and asynchronous modules within a high-speed pipeline*This paper describes a new technique for integrating asynchronous modules within CI high-speed synchronous pipeline. Our design eliminates potential metastability problems by using Q clock generated by Q stoppable rang oscillator, which is capable of driving the large clock load found in present d...1997
11 Mathews, V. JohnOn the inversion of certain nonlinear systemsAbstract-In this letter, we present some theorems for the exact inversion and the pth-order inversion of a wide class of causal, discrete-time, nonlinear systems. The nonlinear systems we consider are described by the input-output relationship y(n) = g[x(n)]h[x(n - 1); y(n - 1)]+f[x(n - 1); y(n - 1)...1997
12 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Order and surface processes in III-V semiconductor alloysSemiconductor alloys have become increasingly useful during the last four decades because, through the use of alloys, the properties of semiconductors can be tailored by varying the composition to precisely match the requirements for specific electronic and photonic devices.Semiconductor alloys; Transmission-electron-diffraction pattern; Organometallic Vaper-phase epitaxy1997
13 Mathews, V. JohnPerceptually lossless image compressionThere are many instances in which human observers are the final judges of the quality of a compressed image. In such situations, it is useful to incorporate a model of the human visual system (HVS) into the image compression system in order to reduce or even eliminate the visual distortions introdu...1997
14 Tasdizen, TolgaPIMs and invariant parts for shape recognitionWe present completely new very powerful solutions t o two fundamental problems central to computer vision. 1. Given data sets representing C objects to be stored in a database, and given a new data set for an object, determine the object in the database that is most like the object measured. We so...1997
15 Myers, Chris J.Synthesis of timed circuits using BDDs*This paper presents a tool which synthesizes timed circuits from reduced state graphs. Using timing information to reduce state graphs can lead to significantly smaller and faster circuits. The tool uses implicit techniques (binary decision diagrams) to represent these graphs. This allows us to synt...1997
16 Myers, Chris J.Timed event/level structuresThis paper presents timed event/level(TEL) structures, an extension to timed event-rule structures, which allows the general use of signal levels and timing in the specification of an asynchronous circuit. TEL structures can express true OR causality, as well as language constructs that are very dif...1997
17 Mathews, V. JohnVector quantization using the L∞ distortion measureAbstract-This paper considers vector quantization of signals using the L1 distortion measure. The key contribution is a result that allows one to characterize the centroid of a set of vectors for the L1 distortion measure. A method similar to the Linde-Buzo-Gray (LBG) algorithm for designing codeboo...1997
