....of physical behavior. The main contribution of this work is to close this void by defining a structure which does maintain this information. 1. 3 A multivector structure Equations of differential forms contain the same information as more traditional (vector calculus) differential equations [12], along with the explicit dimensionality of elements. In this paper, we show that differential forms (and therefore other traditional symbolic differential expressions) may be represented using an explicit cellular structure that can be informally described as a star pseudo complex. It is a proper ....

....and orientation may be changed by scalar multiplication. Another important operation is the vector multiplication of a k vector and a j vector , where j may or may not equal k. This multiplication is denoted and, depending on the source, may be termed a wedge [52, 53] exterior [12, 17, 32] or outer [20, 24] product; some authors [31, 39] even use the terms interchangeably. For our purposes, the term exterior is preferable because of its role in defining the operation of exterior differentiation in Section 4.2. Informally, exterior multiplication of two linearly independent ....

....to a lower model order parameter set. We start by defining identifiability of a parameter. Definition 1 (Identifiability) A parameter 7 is identifiable if and only 1(7 ) is full rank. The motivation for our terminology regarding identifiability of the modes comes from inverse func tion theorem [24] and was also used by Wald [25] A differentiable mapping is uniquely invertible at any point if only if the FIM is full rank at that point. This implies if the FIM is not full rank then no unique inverse or equivalently no unique parameter estimate exists for certain noiseless data records. ....

....arguments as above, we obtain that QN(N) Q(y) rr 2. Since Q(y) 0, we conclude that QN(N) is a consistent estimator of rr 2. Proof of Corollary I: The Fisher information, I( 7) is by hypothesis full rank at all 7 Fe. Also, the set F F has a measure zero. Thus, by inverse function theorem [24], the inverse of g is unique a.e. on k, i.e. N is a singleton set with probability 1. 16 Since k is compact, g is uniformly continuous on Fk. Further, since g is one to one on F, g t is uniformly continuous and unique almost everywhere on . Since N y, the sequence N is Cauchy. From the ....

....derived for motion computation takes also the form of a vector field, e.g. the optical flow vector field. If a spatial structure is modeled with the help of a vector field, we will show in this study that the mathematical notion of the transformation of a vector field under a diffeomorphism [7] can be very useful for temporal motion analysis, specially if motion information is given in the form of another vector field, as it is the case with the optical flow. Indeed the spatial model and the temporal evolution model are both given in the form of vector fields. In this work we are ....

....a new vector field, denoted X , such that the orbits of X correspond precisely to the temporal evolution of the orbits of V . The temporal evolution is defined by the orbits of the optical flow, so we are using the mathematical notion of the transformation of a vector field by a diffeomorphism [7]. The diffeomorphism, which represents motion, is defined by the optical flow vector field. For clarity of notation, we denote by fl(M 0 ; s) the orbit of the vector field V that goes through M 0 at s = 0. The optical flow field W defines orbits, which are temporal curves (M 0 ; t) such that (M ....
