  • identity plus Row Matrix decomposition and its application in design of parallel projection algorithms
    Journal of Electronic Imaging, 2001
    Co-Authors: Hongchi Shi
    Abstract:

    Many image processing operations can be abstracted into Matrix operations. With the help of Matrix analysis, we can understand the inherent properties of the operations and thus design better algorithms. In this paper, we propose a Matrix decomposition method referred to as identity-plus-Row decomposition. The decomposition is particularly useful in design of parallel projection algorithms on mesh-connected computers. Projection is a frequently used process in image processing and visualization. In volume graphics, projection is used to render the essential content of a three-dimensional volume onto a two-dimensional image plane. For Radon transform, projection is used to transform the image space into a parameter space. By applying the identity-plus-Row Matrix decomposition method, we solve the data redistribution problem due to the irregular data access patterns present in those applications on single instruction stream, multiple data stream (SIMD) meshconnected computers, developing fast algorithms for volume rendering and Radon transform on SIMD mesh-connected computers.

  • zimbabwean in service mathematics teachers understanding of Matrix operations
    The Journal of Mathematical Behavior, 2017
    Co-Authors: Cathrine Kazunga, Sarah Bansilal
    Abstract:

    Abstract In Zimbabwe, school pupils study Matrix operations, a topic that is usually covered as part of linear algebra courses taken by most mathematics undergraduate students at university. In this study we focused on Zimbabwean teachers who were studying the topic at university while also teaching the topic to their high school pupils. The purpose of the study was to explore the mental conceptions of Matrix operations concepts of a sample of 116 in-service mathematics teachers. The Action Process Object Schema (APOS) theoretical framework describes the development in understanding of mathematics concepts through the hierarchical gRowth of mental constructions called action, process, object and schema. The results showed that many of the participants had interiorized actions on Matrix operations of addition, scalar multiplication and Matrix multiplication into processes. However, more than 50% of the participants struggled with scalar multiplication of a Row Matrix by a column Matrix. In terms of notational errors, some participants could not distinguish between brackets that denote a Matrix and that of a determinant, while some used the equal sign as an operator symbol and not as one denoting equivalence between two objects. It is recommended that future in-service teacher programs should try to create more structured opportunities to allow participants to engage more deeply with these concepts.
