In image processing and computer vision fields, mean squared error (MSE) has popularly been used as an objective metric in image quality optimization problems due to its desirable mathematical properties such as metricability, differentiability and convexity. However, as known that MSE is not highly correlated with perceived visual quality, much effort has been made to develop new image quality assessment (IQA) metrics having both the desirable mathematical properties aforementioned and high prediction performances for subjective visual quality scores. Although recent IQA metrics having the desirable mathematical properties have shown to give some promising results in prediction performance for visual quality scores, they also have high computation complexities. In order to alleviate this problem, we propose a new fast IQA metric using a simple Laplace operator. Since the Laplace operator used in our IQA metric can not only effectively mimic operations of receptive fields in retina for luminance stimulus but also be simply computed, our IQA metric can yield both very fast processing speed and high prediction performance. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed IQA metric, our method is compared to some state-of-the-art IQA metrics. The experimental results showed that the proposed IQA metric has the fastest running speed compared the IQA methods except MSE under comparison. Moreover, our IQA metric achieves the best prediction performance for subjective image quality scores among the state-of-the-art IQA metrics under test.

We show the existence of at least four solutions for the perturbed parabolic equation with Dirichlet boundary condition and periodic condition when the nonlinear part cross two eigenvalues of the eigenvalue problem of the Laplace operator with boundary condition. We obtain this result by using the Leray-Schauder degree theory, the finite dimensional reduction method and the geometry of the mapping. The main point is that we restrict ourselves to the real Hilbert space instead of the complex space.

In this paper, the eigenstructure of a class of linear time varying systems, termed as linear quasi-time invariant(LQTI) systems, is investigated. A system composed of dynamic devices such as linear time varying capacitors and resistors can be an example of the class. To effectively describe and analyze the LQTI systems, a generalized differential operator G is introduced. Then the dynamic systems described by the operator G are studied in terms of eigenvalue, frequency characteristics, stability and an extended convolution. Some basic attributes of the operator G are compared with those of the differential operator D. Also the corresponding generalized Laplace transform pair is defined and relevant properties are derived for frequency domain analysis of the systems under consideration. As an application example, a LQTI circuit is examined by using the concept of eigenstructure of LQTI system. The LQTI filter processes the sinusoidal signals modulated by some functions.

In this paper, we find explicitly the eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions of Laplace operator on a triangle domain with a mixed boundary condition. We also show that a weaker form of the principle of spatial averaging holds for this domain under suitable boundary condition.

Lipschitzian semigroup is a semigroup of Lipschitz operators which contains $C_0$ semigroup and nonlinear semigroup. In this paper, we establish the cannonical exponential formula of Lipschitzian semigroup from its Lie generator and the approximation theorem by Laplace transform approach to Lipschitzian semigroup.

Physical systems axe generally continuous-time in nature. However as the data measured from these systems is generally in the form of discrete samples, and most modern signal processing is performed in the discrete-time domain, discrete-time models are employed. This paper describes methods for estimating the coefficients of continuous-time system within a closed loop control system. The method employs a recursive estimation algorithm to identify the coefficients of a discrete-time bilinear-operator model. The coefficients of the discrete-time bilinear-operator model closely approximate those of the corresponding continuous-time Laplace transform transfer function.

Let R be a root system in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with Coxeter-Weyl group W and let k be a nonnegative multiplicity function on R. The generalized volume mean of a function $f{\in}L^1_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^d,m_k)$, with $m_k$ the measure given by $dmk(x):={\omega}_k(x)dx:=\prod_{{\alpha}{\in}R}{\mid}{\langle}{\alpha},x{\rangle}{\mid}^{k({\alpha})}dx$, is defined by: ${\forall}x{\in}\mathbb{R}^d$, ${\forall}r$ > 0, $M^r_B(f)(x):=\frac{1}{m_k[B(0,r)]}\int_{\mathbb{R}^d}f(y)h_k(r,x,y){\omega}_k(y)dy$, where $h_k(r,x,{\cdot})$ is a compactly supported nonnegative explicit measurable function depending on R and k. In this paper, we prove that for almost every $x{\in}\mathbb{R}^d$, $lim_{r{\rightarrow}0}M^r_B(f)(x)= f(x)$.

In this article we study the evolution and monotonicity of the first non-zero eigenvalue of weighted p-Laplacian operator which it acting on the space of functions on closed oriented Riemannian n-manifolds along the extended Ricci flow and normalized extended Ricci flow. We show that the first eigenvalue of weighted p-Laplacian operator diverges as t approaches to maximal existence time. Also, we obtain evolution formulas of the first eigenvalue of weighted p-Laplacian operator along the normalized extended Ricci flow and using it we find some monotone quantities along the normalized extended Ricci flow under the certain geometric conditions.
