Near-optimal Sensor Placement for Detecting Stochastic Target Trajectories in Barrier Coverage Systems
Kim, Mingyu, Stilwell, Daniel J., Yetkin, Harun, Jimenez, Jorge
--This paper addresses the deployment of sensors for a 2-D barrier coverage system. The challenge is to compute near-optimal sensor placements for detecting targets whose trajectories follow a log-Gaussian Cox line process. We explore sensor deployment in a transformed space, where linear target trajectories are represented as points. T o illustrate our approach, we focus on positioning sensors of the barrier coverage system on the seafloor to detect passing ships. Through numerical experiments using historical ship data, we compute sensor locations that maximize the probability all ship passing over the barrier coverage system are detected. I NTRODUCTION Barrier coverage systems have been widely studied in various multi-agent system applications, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UA Vs) and sensor networks. In these scenarios, devices are deployed to create a coverage area that detects targets within a specified region.
Model Based Image Compression and Adaptive Data Representation by Interacting Filter Banks
Okamoto, Toshiaki, Kawato, Mitsuo, Inui, Toshio, Miyake, Sei
To achieve high-rate image data compression while maintainig a high quality reconstructed image, a good image model and an efficient way to represent the specific data of each image must be introduced. Based on the physiological knowledge of multi - channel characteristics and inhibitory interactions between them in the human visual system, a mathematically coherent parallel architecture for image data compression which utilizes the Markov random field Image model and interactions between a vast number of filter banks, is proposed.

Computing Motion Using Resistive Networks
Koch, Christof, Luo, Jin, Mead, Carver, Hutchinson, James
We open our eyes and we "see" the world in all its color, brightness, and movement. Yet, we have great difficulties when trying to endow our machines with similar abilities. In this paper we shall describe recent developments in the theory of early vision which lead from the formulation of the motion problem as an illposed oneto its solution by minimizing certain "cost" functions. These cost or energy functions can be mapped onto simple analog and digital resistive networks. Thus, we shall see how the optical flow can be computed by injecting currents into resistive networks and recording the resulting stationary voltage distribution at each node. These networks can be implemented in cMOS VLSI circuits and represent plausible candidates for biological vision systems. APERTURE PROBLEM AND SMOOTHNESS ASSUMPTION In this study, we use intensity-based schemes for recovering motion.
