Speckle filtering is an indispensable pre-processing step for applications of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (POLSAR), such as terrain classification, target detection, etc. As one of the most typical methods, the polarimetric whitening filter (PWF) can be used to produce a minimum-speckle im...

A concept of secret sharing scheme with the function of assignment is proposed. It provides great capabilities for many practical applications. In this scheme, the dealer can randomly assign one or more than one participant to get the secret at any time, but these participants can get nothing about ...

Powerful expressive ability of semantic information, to be easily computed and flexibility are basic features of digital product model (DPM). Using ontology and object-oriented principle (OOP) together to cope with problems in modeling is brought forward in this paper. The two are widely used and do...

An ontology is a conceptualisation of domain knowledge. It is employed in semantic web services technologies to describe the meanings of services so that they can be dynamically searched for and composed according to their meanings.

This study, based on the theory of equivalence relations, proposes a novel multilevel index model for decentralized service repositories to eliminate redundant information and enhance the time-management quality of the service retrieval process of the service repository architecture. An efficient re...
