A significant problem in many information filtering systems is the dependence on the user for the creation and maintenance of a user profile, which describes the user's interests. NewsWeeder is a netnews-filtering system that addresses this problem by letting the user rate his or her interest

We presenf a texture segmentation algorithm inspired by the multi-channel filtering theory for visual information processing in the early stages of human visual system. The channels are characterized by a bank of Gabor filters that nearly uniformly covers the spatial-frequency domain. We propose a

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive presentation and interpretation of the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) and its numerical implementation. The EnKF has a large user group and numerous publications have discussed applications and theoretical aspects of it. This paper

motion mechanisms in which the first stage consists of linear filters that are oriented in space-time and tuned in spatial frequency. The outputs of quadrature pairs of such filters are squared and summed to give a measure of motion energy. These responses are then fed into an opponent stage. Energy

such as the keywords in a tweet, the number of words, and their context. Subsequently, we produce a probabilistic spatiotemporal model for the target event that can find the center and the trajectory of the event location. We consider each Twitter user as a sensor and apply Kalman filtering and particle filtering

We describe a technique for image encoding in which local operators of many scales but identical shape serve as the basis functions. The representation differs from established techniques in that the code elements are localized in spatial frequency as well as in space. Pixel-to-pixel correlations

-length time series, and the relationship between wavelet scale and Fourier frequency. New statistical significance tests for wavelet power spectra are developed by deriving theoretical wavelet spectra for white and red noise processes and using these to establish significance levels and confidence

in the pore at the center of the bilayer. Main chain carbonyl oxygen atoms from the K1 channel signature sequence line the selectivity filter, which is held open by structural constraints to co-ordinate K1 ions but not smaller Na1 ions. The selectivity filter contains two K1 ions about 7.5 angstroms apart
