How the Down Step Edges Influence Formation of the 7 · 7 Structure
"... Summary: A surface that has wide terraces was fabricated by utilizing the step bunching phenomenon to study the effect of the down step edges on the formation of the 7 · 7 recon-struction. The surface with wide terraces was quenched through the 1 · 1–7 · 7 phase transition, freezing the forma-tion ..."

A Practical Guide to Wavelet Analysis
, 1998
"... A practical step-by-step guide to wavelet analysis is given, with examples taken from time series of the El Nio-- Southern Oscillation (ENSO). The guide includes a comparison to the windowed Fourier transform, the choice of an appropriate wavelet basis function, edge effects due to finite-length t ..."

Nonlinear total variation based noise removal algorithms
, 1992
"... A constrained optimization type of numerical algorithm for removing noise from images is presented. The total variation of the image is minimized subject to constraints involving the statistics of the noise. The constraints are imposed using Lagrange multipliers. The solution is obtained using the g ..."

to be state-of-the-art for very noisy images. The method is noninvasive, yielding sharp edges in the image. The technique could be interpreted as a first step of moving each level set of the image normal to itself with velocity equal to the curvature of the level set divided by the magnitude of the gradient
On active contour models and balloons
- CVGIP: Image
"... The use.of energy-minimizing curves, known as “snakes, ” to extract features of interest in images has been introduced by Kass, Witkhr & Terzopoulos (Znt. J. Comput. Vision 1, 1987,321-331). We present a model of deformation which solves some of the problems encountered with the original method. ..."

curve need no longer be close to the solution to converge. The curve passes over weak edges and is stopped only if the edge is strong. We give examples of extracting a ventricle in medical images. We have also made a first step toward 3D object reconstruction, by tracking the extracted contour on a
Goal-directed Requirements Acquisition
- SCIENCE OF COMPUTER PROGRAMMING
, 1993
"... Requirements analysis includes a preliminary acquisition step where a global model for the specification of the system and its environment is elaborated. This model, called requirements model, involves concepts that are currently not supported by existing formal specification languages, such as goal ..."

Implicit Fairing of Irregular Meshes using Diffusion and Curvature Flow
, 1999
"... In this paper, we develop methods to rapidly remove rough features from irregularly triangulated data intended to portray a smooth surface. The main task is to remove undesirable noise and uneven edges while retaining desirable geometric features. The problem arises mainly when creating high-fidelit ..."

Characterization of Step-Edge Barriers in Organic Thin-Film Growth
"... Detailed understanding of growth mechanisms in organic thin-film deposition is crucial for tailoring growth morphologies, which in turn determine the physical properties of the resulting films. For growth of the rodlike molecule para-sexiphenyl, the evolution of terraced mounds is observed by atomic ..."

by atomic force microscopy. Using methods established in inorganic epitaxy, we demonstrate the existence of an additional barrier (0.67 electron volt) for step-edge crossing—the Ehrlich-Schwoebel barrier. This result was confirmed by transition state theory, which revealed a bending of the molecule
Step Edges in Thin Films of Lamellar-Forming Diblock Copolymer
"... ABSTRACT: Self-consistent field theory (SCFT) is used to study the step edges that occur in thin films of lamellar-forming diblock copolymer, when the surfaces each have an affinity for one of the polymer components. We examine film morphologies consisting of a stack of ν continuous monolayers and o ..."

A Simple Model of Epitaxial Growth: The Influence of Step Edge Diffusion
, 1998
"... By studying limiting cases of a simple cubic solid--on--solid model we demonstrate that step edge diffusion (SED) may play a crucial role in epitaxial growth. Our model exhibits the formation and coarsening of pyramids or mounds with a constant inclination angle (slope selection). A comparison of ..."
