โœฆ Synopsis

In medical knowledge-based systems, there is a need for models of the human body which can predict and explain behavior based on qualitative information about the structure and behavior of the body. We present a framework for representing the structure and behavior of physical systems and apply it to the human cardiovascular system. Our framework allows for hierarchical representation of physical systems and facilitates two kinds of reasoning processes: composition of behaviors and qualitative simulation.

Deformation of a material is accompanied by changes that take place in its internal structure. These changes exhibit different degrees of permanency. Some of these changes disappear, immediately or slowly, upon unloading; some others (such as dislocation tangles) may need annealing for their removal

This paper presents a new method to compute areas and moments of arbitrary domains bounded by periodic cubic B-splines. The proposed method gives exact answers, it is very efficient and relies only on the control points co-ordinates of the B-spline. One example is presented and compared with analyti

Image resolution conversions are methods for converting a digital image to another with a different number of pixels. In this paper, two image resolution conversion methods in the DCT region for image minification are discussed. The images minified by these methods are known to have different pictur
