A method using two dimension Haar functions approximation for solving the problem of a partial differential equation and estimating the parameters of a non-linear distributed parameter system (DPS) is presented. The applications of orthogonal functions, including Haar functions, and their transforms have been given much attention in system control and communication engineering field since 1970's. The Haar functions set forms a complete set of orthogonal rectangular functions similar in several respects to the Walsh functions. The algorithm adopted in this paper is that of estimating the parameters of non-linear DPS by converting and transforming a partial differential equation into a simple algebraic equation. Two dimension Haar functions approximation method is introduced newly to represent and solve a partial differential equation. The proposed method is supported by numerical examples for demonstration the fast, convenient capabilities of the method.

Facial expression recognition can aid in the development of fatigue driving detection, teaching quality evaluation, and other fields. In this study, a facial expression recognition method was proposed with a residual masking reconstruction network as its backbone to achieve more efficient expression recognition and classification. The residual layer was used to acquire and capture the information features of the input image, and the masking layer was used for the weight coefficients corresponding to different information features to achieve accurate and effective image analysis for images of different sizes. To further improve the performance of expression analysis, the loss function of the model is optimized from two aspects, feature dimension and data dimension, to enhance the accurate mapping relationship between facial features and emotional labels. The simulation results show that the ROC of the proposed method was maintained above 0.9995, which can accurately distinguish different expressions. The precision was 75.98%, indicating excellent performance of the facial expression recognition model.

This paper proposes method to get exquisite third dimension data removing included noise by error that occur in third dimension reconstruction through camera auto-calibration. Though reconstructing third dimension data by previous noise removing method, mesh that area is wide is happened problem by noise. Because mesh's area is important, the proposed algorithm need preprocessing that remove unnecessary triangle meshes of acquired third dimension data. The research analyzes the characteristics of noise using the area information of 3-dimensional meshes, separates a peek noise and a Gauss noise by its characteristics and removes the noise effectively. We give a quantitative evaluation of the proposed preprocessing filter and compare with the mesh smoothing procedures. We demonstrate that our effective preprocessing filter outperform the mesh smoothing procedures in terms of accuracy and resistance to over-smoothing.

The purpose of this study was to compare the root canal shaping ability of 4 rotary NiTi instruments in simulated root canals. For the preparation of thirty two curved root canals, Mtwo instruments using "single length"technique, and Profile, ProTaper Universal, and K3 using crown-down technique (N = 8) were used. All canal samples were prepared by reaching an apical canal size of #30. Pre- and post-instrumentation digital images were recorded and an assessment of canal shape was determined using a computer image analysis program SigmaScan Pro (Systat Software Inc., San Jose, CA, USA). The changes of the dimension of inner walls of canals, (2) the changes of the dimension of outer walls of canals, and (3) the centering ratio were measured at 7 measuring points, and then data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Duncan's test. The results were as below; 1. The root canal shaping ability of Profile was significantly faster than that of other rotary NiTi instruments (p < 0.05). 2. The deformation and fracture of all instruments used for this study were not experienced. 3. In the degree of changes of the dimension of inner walls of canals, Profile demonstrated the lowest changes of the dimension of inner walls of canals except at the measuring points of the 1 and 2 mm (p < 0.05). However, the ProTaper Universal showed the highest changes of the dimension of inner walls of canals at all measuring points (p < 0.05). 4. In the degree of changes of the dimension of outer walls of canals, Mtwo demonstrated the lowest changse of the dimension of outer walls of canals except at the measuring point of the 1 mm (p < 0.05). However, Profile exhibited the highest changes of the dimension of outer walls of canals at the measuring points of 3 and 4 mm and ProTaper Universal and K3 showed the largest changes of the dimension of outer walls of canals at the measuring points of 1, 2, 6, and 7 mm (p < 0.05). 5. In degree of centering ratio, Profile demonstrated the least centering ratio comparing with the centering ratio shown by other NiTi instruments at the measuring points of 1, 4, 5, and 6 mm. Results suggest that in the coronal part of canal preparation, active cutting files such as ProTaper Universal may efficiently flare the canal orifice and form a better taper, and in the apical part of the canal, files which have a better centering ability such as Profile may maintain the original canal curvature and reduce the shaping time.
