This study explored first-semester calculus students'' understanding of tangent lines as well as how students used tangent lines within the context of Newton''s method. Task-based interviews were conducted with twelve first-semester calculus students who were asked to verbally describe a tangent ...
we enhance our discriminator based on the relativistic GAN, which has been shown to improve the data quality and stability of GANs at no computational cost69. Different from the standard discriminator, which
The method makes no specific proposal for mask generation and therefore yields rectangular solar cells. Fig. 9 Example of an exact mask (a) of solar cells estimated using the proposed approach and a quadrilateral mask (b) determined from the exact mask. The latter is used for comparison ...

There is no need to design specific networks for each chart object (e.g. bars, lines and sectors) anymore. Instead, we only extract the keypoints that de- fines the object. Although the chart objects vary in shape, they are highly structured. This enables us to reconstruct the chart ...
$$\begin{aligned} u_{x}&= \frac{b}{2\pi }\left( \arctan (y,x)+\frac{xy}{2(1-\nu )(x^{2}+y^{2})}\right) \nonumber \\ u_{y}&= \frac{b}{8\pi (1-\nu )}\left( (1-2\nu )\ln (x^{2}+y^{2})+\frac{x^{2}-y^{2}}{x^{2}+y^{2}}\right) . \en...
While this gain is nonetheless desirable, no method will always achieve perfect results. Overall, despite the small gain on test accuracy metrics due to noise removal and post processing, we believe it is worth attempting. Even with post processing, there will still be segmentation errors. Those...
1). Any set of non-dominated solutions, being chosen as optimal, can be defined as Pareto-efficient if no objective can be improved without sacrificing at least one other objective. On the other hand, a solution ζ* is referred to as dominated by another solution ζ if, and only if, ...
This deficit extended to the identification of pictures presented at tachistoscopic durations, although no disturbance in the visual identification of pictures or objects was observed in real time. There were frequent reports of visual imagery associated with the perception of written material. These ...
The imperfections in the image formation process are modeled as passive operations on the data, i.e., no “energy” is absorbed or generated. Consequently, for spatially continuous blurs the PSF is constrained to satisfy the global energy preserving\(\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }\int _{-\...
