In order to improve the performance, optimization techniques are applied in this paper such as using the shared memory rather than the global memory to improve the speed of computation, avoiding bank conflicts b
Other response functions are of course possible, and their shape and width can be adjusted for optimal performance. As with the Hough transform, track candidates correspond to the local maxima of intensity in parameter space. The artificial retina is eminently suitable for high-speed track finding,...
This section assumes you have enough background in calculus to be familiar with integration. InInstantaneous Velocity and SpeedandAverage and Instantaneous Accelerationwe introduced the kinematic functions of velocity and acceleration using the derivative. By taking the derivative of the positio...
All that is left to do is equip the above with an appropriate set of initial conditions at time t = 0: we will imagine that the projectile is fired from an initial starting height h at an angle of θ degrees and initial speed (velocity magnitude) v0, which gives: r(0) = (0, h...
Animals have evolved mechanisms to travel safely and efficiently within different habitats. On a journey in dense terrains animals avoid collisions and cross narrow passages while controlling an overall course. Multiple hypotheses target how animals solv
To address (i) we show that our machine learning model can be trained in a few minutes using a small quantity of data, after which the model is able to identify candidate TLS with high speed and accuracy. To address (ii) we determine which static features are the most important for the...
and collect accurate infrared measurements. With just four hours of observation, they have established new constraints on the possible lifetime of dark matter. Their findings not only show the power of their technology, but also extend the search to less explored areas of the electromagnet...
Say there is this great app out there that allows you to track the driving speed and location of all your delivery truck drivers. It’s great because the same functionality just a few years ago cost thousands of dollars per truck and had to be downloaded manually each night. Now, you hav...
If an object has no forces on it, and then you apply a force by, for example, pushing it, the object will accelerate. An acceleration is a change in the velocity of an object over time. So if the forces on an object are unbalanced, the object's velocity will change. ...
which is the reason for us to introduce the respective fptterm to the Drake equation. Thirdly, we explore for the first time why the very rare long-lasting presence of large expanses of both continents and oceans on planets with plate tectonics is an essential and restrictive condition for th...
