SKEWED SYMMETRY DETECTION OF QUADRIC SURFACE SOLIDS UNDER ORTHOGRAPHIC PROJECTION

The skewed symmetry detection plays an improtant role in three-dimensional（3-D） reconstruction. The skewed symmetry depicts a real symmetry viewed from some unknown viewing directions. And the skewed symmetry detection can decrease the geometric constrains and the complexity of 3-D reconstruction. The detection technique for the quadric curve ellipse proposed by Sugimoto is improved to further cover quadric curves including hyperbola and parabola. With the parametric detection, the 3-D quadric curve projection matching is automatical- ly accomplished. Finally, the skewed symmetry surface of the quadric surface solid is obtained. Several examples are used to verify the feasibility of the algorithm and satisfying results can be obtained.

A graphical model for haloanhydrite components and P-wave velocity:A case study of haloanhydrites in Amu Darya Basin

Wave velocities in haloanhydrites are difficult to determine and significantly depend on the mineralogy. We used petrophysical parameters to study the wave velocity in haloanhydrites in the Amur Darya Basin and constructed a template of the relation between haloanhydrite mineralogy （anhydrite, salt, mudstone, and pore water） and wave velocities. We used the relation between the P-wave rnoduli ratio and porosity as constraint and constructed a graphical model （petrophysical template） for the relation between wave velocity, mineral content and porosity. We tested the graphical model using rock core and well logging data.

Calculation of angular glint in near field utilizing graphical electromagnetic computing

The angular glint in the near field plays an important role on radar tracking errors. To predict it more efficiently for electrically large targets, a new method based on graphical electromagnetic computing （GRECO） is proposed. With the benefit of the graphic card, the GRECO prediction method is faster and more accurate than other methods. The proposed method at the first time considers the special case that the targets cannot be completely covered by radar beams, which makes the prediction of radar tracking errors more self-contained in practical circumstances. On the other hand, the process of the scattering center extraction is omitted, resulting in possible angular glint prediction in real time. Comparisons between the simulation results and the theoretical ones validate its correctness and value to academic research and engineering applications.

PHOTOREALISTIC COMPUTER GRAPHICS FORENSICS BASED ON LEADING DIGIT LAW

As the advent and growing popularity of image rendering software,photorealistic computer graphics are becoming more and more perceptually indistinguishable from photographic images.If the faked images are abused,it may lead to potential social,legal or private consequences.To this end,it is very necessary and also challenging to find effective methods to differentiate between them.In this paper,a novel leading digit law,also called Benford's law,based method to identify computer graphics is proposed.More specifically,statistics of the most significant digits are extracted from image's Discrete Cosine Transform(DCT) coefficients and magnitudes of image's gradient,and then the Support Vector Machine(SVM) based classifiers are built.Results of experiments on the image datasets indicate that the proposed method is comparable to prior works.Besides,it possesses low dimensional features and low computational complexity.

Three Dimensional Simulation of Ion Thruster Plume-Spacecraft Interaction Based on a Graphic Processor Unit

Based on the three-dimensional particle-in-cell （PIC） method and Compute Unified Device Architecture （CUDA）, a parallel particle simulation code combined with a graphic processor unit （GPU） has been developed for the simulation of charge-exchange （CEX） xenon ions in the plume of an ion thruster. Using the proposed technique, the potential and CEX plasma distribution are calculated for the ion thruster plume surrounding the DS1 spacecraft at different thrust levels. The simulation results are in good agreement with measured CEX ion parameters reported in literature, and the CPU＇s results are equal to a CPU＇s. Compared with a single CPU Intel Core 2 E6300, 16-processor GPU NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT indicates a speedup factor of 3.6 when the total macro particle number is 1.1 × 10^6. The simulation results also reveal how the back flow CEX plasma affects the spacecraft floating potential, which indicates that the plume of the ion thruster is indeed able to alleviate the extreme negative floating potentials of spacecraft in geosynchronous orbit.

Some computer graphical user interfaces in radiation therapy

In this review, five graphical user interfaces(GUIs) used in radiation therapy practices and researches are introduced. They are:(1) the treatment time calculator, superficialx-ray treatment time calculator(SUPCALC) used in the superficial X-ray radiation therapy;(2) the monitor unit calculator, electron monitor unit calculator(EMUC) used in the electron radiation therapy;(3) the multileaf collimator machine file creator, sliding window intensity modulated radiotherapy(SWIMRT) used in generating fluence map for research and quality assurance in intensity modulated radiation therapy;(4) the treatment planning system, DOSCTP used in the calculation of 3D dose distribution using Monte Carlo simulation; and(5) the monitor unit calculator, photon beam monitor unit calculator(PMUC) used in photon beam radiation therapy. One common issue of these GUIs is that all user-friendly interfaces are linked to complex formulas and algorithms based on various theories, which do not have to be understood and noted by the user. In that case, user only needs to input the required information with help from graphical elements in order to produce desired results. SUPCALC is a superficial radiation treatment time calculator using the GUI technique to provide a convenient way for radiation therapist to calculate the treatment time, and keep a record for the skin cancer patient. EMUC is an electron monitor unit calculator for electron radiation therapy. Instead of doing hand calculation according to pre-determined dosimetric tables, clinical user needs only to input the required drawing of electron field in computer graphical file format, prescription dose, and beam parameters to EMUC to calculate the required monitor unit for the electron beam treatment. EMUC is based on a semi-experimental theory of sector-integration algorithm. SWIMRT is a multileaf collimator machine file creator to generate a fluence map produced by a medical linear accelerator. This machine file controls the multileaf collimator to deliver intensity modulated beams for a specific fluence map used in quality assurance or research. DOSCTP is a treatment planning system using the computed tomography images. Radiation beams(photon or electron) with different energies and field sizes produced by a linear accelerator can be placed in different positions to irradiate the tumour in the patient. DOSCTP is linked to a Monte Carlo simulation engine using the EGSnrc-based code, so that 3D dose distribution canbe determined accurately for radiation therapy. Moreover, DOSCTP can be used for treatment planning of patient or small animal. PMUC is a GUI for calculation of the monitor unit based on the prescription dose of patient in photon beam radiation therapy. The calculation is based on dose corrections in changes of photon beam energy, treatment depth, field size, jaw position, beam axis, treatment distance and beam modifiers. All GUIs mentioned in this review were written either by the Microsoft Visual Basic.net or a MATLAB GUI development tool called GUIDE. In addition, all GUIs were verified and tested using measurements to ensure their accuracies were up to clinical acceptable levels for implementations.

3D graphical visualization of the genetic architectures underlying complex traits in multiple environments

An approach for generating interactive 3D graphical visualization of the genetic architectures of complex traits in multiple environments is described. 3D graphical visualization is utilized for making improvements on traditional plots in quan- titative trait locus (QTL) mapping analysis. Interactive 3D graphical visualization for abstract expression of QTL, epistasis and their environmental interactions for experimental populations was developed in framework of user-friendly software QTLNetwork (http://ibi.zju.edu.cn/software/qtlnetwork). Novel definition of graphical meta system and computation of virtual coordinates are used to achieve explicit but meaningful visualization. Interactive 3D graphical visualization for QTL analysis provides geneticists and breeders a powerful and easy-to-use tool to analyze and publish their research results.

Fast modeling of gravity gradients from topographic surface data using GPU parallel algorithm

The gravity gradient is a secondary derivative of gravity potential,containing more high-frequency information of Earth’s gravity field.Gravity gradient observation data require deducting its prior and intrinsic parts to obtain more variational information.A model generated from a topographic surface database is more appropriate to represent gradiometric effects derived from near-surface mass,as other kinds of data can hardly reach the spatial resolution requirement.The rectangle prism method,namely an analytic integration of Newtonian potential integrals,is a reliable and commonly used approach to modeling gravity gradient,whereas its computing efficiency is extremely low.A modified rectangle prism method and a graphical processing unit(GPU)parallel algorithm were proposed to speed up the modeling process.The modified method avoided massive redundant computations by deforming formulas according to the symmetries of prisms’integral regions,and the proposed algorithm parallelized this method’s computing process.The parallel algorithm was compared with a conventional serial algorithm using 100 elevation data in two topographic areas(rough and moderate terrain).Modeling differences between the two algorithms were less than 0.1 E,which is attributed to precision differences between single-precision and double-precision float numbers.The parallel algorithm showed computational efficiency approximately 200 times higher than the serial algorithm in experiments,demonstrating its effective speeding up in the modeling process.Further analysis indicates that both the modified method and computational parallelism through GPU contributed to the proposed algorithm’s performances in experiments.
