Structural Analysis of Contours as the Sequences of the Digital Straight Segments and of the Digital Curve Arcs

Recognition of the object contours in the image as sequences of digital straight segments and/or digital curve arcs is considered in this article. The definitions of digital straight segments and of digital curve arcs are proposed. The methods and programs to recognize the object contours are represented. The algorithm to recognize the digital straight segments is formulated in terms of the growing pyramidal networks taking into account the conceptual model of memory and identification (Rabinovich [4]).

Trained Neural Network Characterizing Variables for Predicting Organic Retention by Nanofiltration Membranes

Many organic compounds cause an irreversible damage to human health and the ecosystem and are present in water resources. Among these hazard substances, phenolic compounds play an important role on the actual contamination. Utilization of membrane technology is increasing exponentially in drinking water production and waste water treatment. The removal of organic compounds by nanofiltration membranes is characterized not only by molecular sieving effects but also by membrane-solute interactions. Influence of the sieving parameters (molecular weight and molecular diameter) and the physicochemical interactions (dissociation constant and molecular hydrophobicity) on the membrane rejection of the organic solutes were studied. The molecular hydrophobicity is expressed as logarithm of octanol-water partition coefficient. This paper proposes a method used that can be used for symbolic knowledge extraction from a trained neural network, once they have been trained with the desired performance and is based on detect the more important variables in problems where exist multicolineality among the input variables.

Corrigendum for "Weierstrass Points with first Non-Gap four on a Double Covering of a Hyperelliptic Curve"

In the proof of Lemma 3.1 in [1] we need to show that we may take the two points p and q with p ≠ q such that p+q+(b-2)g21(C′)∼2(q1+… +qb-1) where q1,…,qb-1 are points of C′, but in the paper [1] we did not show that p ≠ q. Moreover, we hadn't been able to prove this using the method of our paper [1]. So we must add some more assumption to Lemma 3.1 and rewrite the statements of our paper after Lemma 3.1. The following is the correct version of Lemma 3.1 in [1] with its proof.
