The aim of this paper is to define a nonlinear least squares estimator for the spectral parameters of a spherical autoregressive process of order 1 in a parametric setting. Furthermore, we investigate on its asymptotic properties, such as weak consistency ...
State-of-the-art database design tools rely on the query optimizer for comparing between physical design alternatives. Although it provides an appropriate cost model for physical design, query optimization is a computationally expensive process. The signif ...
We propose a new method for the accurate estimation of nonlinear response of the PZT to the applied voltage. The method uses discrete chirp Fourier transform for the coarse estimation followed by a fine search method for the accurate estimation of the phas ...
An integral approach to phase measurement is presented. First, the use of a high-resolution technique for the pixelwise detection of phase steps is proposed. Next, the robustness of the algorithm that is developed is improved by incorporation of a denoisin ...
