Range Cell Migration Correction (RCMC) is a key step in the imaging procedure of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). The performance of RCMC affects the final SAR image quality greatly. Traditionally, RCMC is carried out via an interpolation operation on CPU, and is a time-consuming phase in the whole processing flow. In this paper, a novel […]

We introduce an inverse problem for the local volatility model in option pricing. We solve the problem using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm and use the notion of the Frechet derivative when calculating the Jacobian matrix. We analyze the existence of the Frechet derivative and its numerical computation. To reduce the computational time of the inverse problem, […]

In this paper, we present a novel 3D model alignment method by analyzing the voxels of 3D meshes and a visual similarity based 3D model matching and retrieving method using active tabu search. Firstly, each 3D model is voxelized and applied voxels based PCA transformation, then it is represented by six depth images which are […]

Multi-core platform enters the territory of high performance computing (HPC). Moreover, the NVIDA GT200 has 240 cores and performs thousands upon thousands of threads simultaneously.

The research on complex Brain Networks plays a vital role in understanding the connectivity patterns of the human brain and disease-related alterations. Recent studies have suggested a noninvasive way to model and analyze human brain networks by using multi-modal imaging and graph theoretical approaches. Both the construction and analysis of the Brain Networks require tremendous […]

New elastographic techniques such as poroelastography and viscoelasticity imaging aim at imaging the temporal mechanical behavior of tissues. These techniques usually involve the use of curve fitting methods being applied to noisy data to estimate new elastographic parameters. As of today, however, current elastographic implementations of poroelastography and viscoelasticity imaging methods are in general too […]

This paper presents Model-T, an OS network stack designed to scale to terabit rates through pipelined execution of micro operations. Model-T parallelizes execution on multicore chips and enforces lockstep processing to maximize shared L2 data cache (d-cache) hitrate. Executing all operations without hitting main memory more than once (if at all) is the key design […]
