It is an important improvement upon the traditional image inpainting techniques. By introducing a new bijeetive-mapping term into the matching cost function, the artificial repetition problem in the final inpainting image is practically solved. In addition, by adopting an inpainting error map, not only the target pixels are refined gradually during the inpainting process but also the overlapped target patches are combined more seamlessly than previous method. Finally, the inpainting time is dramatically decreased by using a new acceleration method in the matching process.展开更多

By the embedded Markov chain theory and the probability generating function method, we set up the mathematics functions and give closed form expressions for obtaining the mean cyclic period (MCP), the mean queue length (MQL) and the mean waiting time (MWT) characteristics, the analytical results are also verified through extensive computer simulations. The performance analysis reveals that this priority polling scheme can gives better efficiency as well as impartiality in terms of system characteristics, and it can be used for differentiating priority service to guarantee better QoS and system stability in design and improvement of MAC protocol.展开更多

This paper proposes a series queuing network (SQN) scheduling algorithm to divide the total ships that intend to pass through the shiplocks into four queues and calculate dynamically the weight of priority for each ship. The SQN scheduling algorithm schedules ships according to their priority weights which is determined by the characteristics of each ship, such as length, width, affiliation, waiting time, and so on. In the process, the operation conditions of Gezhou dam related to the navigable shiplocks and the task balancing among different shiplocks also should be considered. The SQN algorithm schedules ships circularly and optimizes the results step by step. Real operation data from our project shows that our SQN scheduling algorithm outperforms the traditional manual scheduling in which the less computational time is taken, the area utilization ratio of the five shiplocks is increased, the waiting time of high-prioritized ships is shorten, and a better balanced and alternating run-mode is provided for the three shiplocks in the Gezhou dam.展开更多
