  • Fast SAR Image Segmentation via Merging Cost With Relative Common Boundary Length Penalty
    IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2014
    Co-Authors: Peng-lang Shui, Ze-jun Zhang
    Abstract:

    In this paper, a region-merging-based method is proposed for fast segmentation of amplitude-format synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. It combines the existing fast initial partition by applying the watershed transform to the thresholded ratio edge strength map with fast region merging by using a new merging cost with relative Common Boundary length penalty (RCBLP) and the nearest neighbor graph (NNG) for fast search minimal edge on a region adjacency graph (RAG). A new statistical similarity measure, which is a scale-invariant and approximately constant false alarm rate with respect to region sizes, is proposed and combined with an RCBLP term to form a new merging cost. The region-merging process starting from the initial partition is fast implemented by means of the RAG and NNG. Several quantitative indexes in optical image segmentation assessment are borrowed for quantitative assessment of segmentation quality. Experiments to synthetic and real SAR images are reported. The results show that the proposed method is fast and attains higher quality segmentation results than the two recent state-of-the-art methods.

  • Common Boundary values of holomorphic functions for two-sided complex structures
    The Michigan Mathematical Journal, 2014
    Co-Authors: Florian Bertrand, Xianghong Gong, Jean-pierre Rosay
    Abstract:

    L et� 1, � 2 be two disjoint open sets in R 2n whose bound- aries share a smooth real hypersurface M as a relatively open sub- set. Assume thati is equipped with a complex structure J i that is smooth up to M. Suppose that at each point x ∈ M there is a vector v ∈ Tx M such that J 1 x v and J 2 x v are in the same connected component of TxR 2n \ Tx M.I ff is holomorphic with respect to both structures in the open sets and continuous on � 1 ∪ M ∪ � 2 ,t henf must be smooth on the union � 1 ∪ M. Although the result, as stated, is far more meaningful for integrable structures, our methods make it much more natural to deal with the general almost complex structures with- out the integrability condition. The result is therefore proved in the framework of almost complex structures.

    Abstract:

    Let $\Omega_1,\Omega_2$ be two disjoint open sets in $\mathbf C^n$ whose boundaries share a smooth real hypersurface $M$ as relatively open subsets. Assume that $\Omega_i$ is equipped with a complex structure $J^i$ which is smooth up to $M$. Assume that the operator norm $\|J^2-J^1\|<2$ on $M$. Let $f$ be a continuous function on the union of $\Omega_1,\Omega_2, M$. If $f$ is holomorphic with respect to both structures in the open sets, then $f$ must be smooth on the union of $\Omega_1$ with $M$. Although the result as stated is far more meaningful for integrable structures, our methods make it much more natural to deal with the general almost complex structures without the integrability condition. The result is therefore proved in the framework of almost complex structures.

  • The discovery of Type-IV binary fluid phase behavior
    Fluid Phase Equilibria, 2004
    Co-Authors: J. M. H. Levelt Sengers
    Abstract:

    The computer analysis by Scott and Van Konynenburg of the Van der Waals binary mixture for constant excluded volume uncovered the Type-IV phase diagram as a transition between Type-II and Type-III phase diagrams. The Common Boundary of the regions of Type-II and Type-III is a locus of tricritical points. The tricritical locus meets the Common Boundary of regions of Type-II and Type-IV at what Meijer coined the Van Laar point in 1989. The present paper shows, however, that as early as 1905 the Dutch chemist Van Laar produced Type-II and Type-III phase diagrams for the geometric-mean Van der Waals binary mixture, and found the exact coordinates of what we call the Van Laar point, but he did not notice tricriticality explicitly. He postulated and proved the existence of the Type-IV phase diagram. Aspects of his proof are discussed.
