O Código Florestal brasileiro, juntamente com a resolução Conama no 303/2002, definiu áreas do território nacional classificadas como de preservaão permanente (APP). Essas áreas englobam margens dos cursos e corpos d'água, terrenos com declividade acentuada, bordas de chapadas, topos de morro, entre outras feições. No entanto, a escassez de dados cartográficos em escala adequada e de abrangência nacional dificultam ou até impossibilitam as estimativas do alcance territorial da legislaão ambiental brasileira. Um exemplo é a delimitaão das APPs nas margens dos rios, que, para identificaão correta, requer, além da localizaão, informaões sobre a largura dos cursos d'água na época de cheias, dados raramente disponíveis. Este trabalho utilizou dados provenientes da Agência Nacional de Águas (ANA) para estimar as APPs das margens dos rios pertencentes à bacia do Rio Ji-Paraná, RO, identificados na escala 1:1.000.000, levando-se em consideraão as larguras dos cursos d'água. Dados de todas as dez estaões fluviométricas presentes na bacia com medidas de cota e perfil transversal da calha foram utilizados para estimar a largura máxima do canal de duas maneiras distintas. A primeira delimitou as sub-bacias definidas pelas estaões fluviométricas e considerou que todos os cursos d'água pertencentes à sub-bacia apresentavam a mesma largura observada em seu ponto final. A segunda utilizou a relaão empírica obtida entre a área de drenagem e a largura da calha nas nove estaões para definir a largura de todos os trechos dos cursos d'água da bacia. Por fim, as APPs nas margens dos rios foram delimitadas seguindo os critérios estabelecidos na resolução Conama no 303/2002. A título de comparaão, foram também delimitadas as APPs utilizando larguras constantes de 100 m, 200 m e 500 m de faixa marginal para toda a bacia. Entre os diferentes métodos utilizados, a APP nas margens dos rios variou de 1.541 km2 a 15.876 km2 (2,04% a 21,04% da área da bacia, respectivamente). A grande variaão na delimitaão das áreas marginais deixa claro que estimativas efetuadas para grandes regiões estarão sempre sujeitas a incertezas, de acordo com os métodos utilizados, e que, portanto, é imprescindvel o detalhamento dos procedimentos efetuados para esclarecer as vantagens e limitaões a que tais estimativas estão sujeitas.

We describe a psychophysical investigation of the effects of object complexity and familiarity on the variation of recognition time and recognition accuracy over different views of novel 3D objects. Our findings indicate that with practice the response times for different views become more uniform and the initially orderly dependency of the response time on the distance to a "good" view disappears. One possible interpretation of our results is in terms of a tradeoff between memory needed for storing specific-view representations of objects and time spent in recognizing the objects.

This thesis examines a complete design framework for a real-time, autonomous system with specialized VLSI hardware for computing 3-D camera motion. In the proposed architecture, the first step is to determine point correspondences between two images. Two processors, a CCD array edge detector and a mixed analog/digital binary block correlator, are proposed for this task. The report is divided into three parts. Part I covers the algorithmic analysis; part II describes the design and test of a 32$\time $32 CCD edge detector fabricated through MOSIS; and part III compares the design of the mixed analog/digital correlator to a fully digital implementation.

We discuss a strategy for visual recognition by forming groups of salient image features, and then using these groups to index into a data base to find all of the matching groups of model features. We discuss the most space efficient possible method of representing 3-D models for indexing from 2-D data, and show how to account for sensing error when indexing. We also present a convex grouping method that is robust and efficient, both theoretically and in practice. Finally, we combine these modules into a complete recognition system, and test its performance on many real images.

Techniques, suitable for parallel implementation, for robust 2D model-based object recognition in the presence of sensor error are studied. Models and scene data are represented as local geometric features and robust hypothesis of feature matchings and transformations is considered. Bounds on the error in the image feature geometry are assumed constraining possible matchings and transformations. Transformation sampling is introduced as a simple, robust, polynomial-time, and highly parallel method of searching the space of transformations to hypothesize feature matchings. Key to the approach is that error in image feature measurement is explicitly accounted for. A Connection Machine implementation and experiments on real images are presented.

The effect of inorganic salts on the hydrolysis of starch in a microwave field was investigated and it was found that some inorganic salts can effectively accelerate the acid hydrolysis of starch. The yield of D-glucose reached 111 wt% (equal to the theoretical yield). (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

One asymmetric transformation reaction Of L-proline (L-Pro) to D-proline was studied by a home-made capillary array electrophoresis (CAE) for the first time. The aldehyde catalysts and the organic acid solvents for the asymmetric transformation reaction were rapidly screened and the enantiomeric excess values of the asymmetric product Of L-Pro were directly obtained from the electrophoretogram of CAE.
