Cover Story: In this study, alumina ceramics were obtained from three different sources, with various rare-earth dopants, concentration levels and synthesizing routes; ceramic properties were measured, resulting in a complex, multivariate database. Microstructural features were assessed by using two edge detection techniques and by computing Fractal Dimension (FD). Correlations in the causal chain, materials–composition–processing–microstructure–properties, with multiple choices for each link, were extracted. Principal Component Analysis was used to understand the data on a scientific basis and to extract correlations, along with some other statistical techniques. FD was acknowledged to be an effective quantifier of highly dissimilar and/or noisy microstructures, and the best edge detection technique was selected. View this paper

In this paper, we are interested in the effective numerical schemes of the time-fractional Black–Scholes equation. We convert the original equation into an equivalent integral-differential equation and then discretize the time-integral term in...

The recovery of bandlimited signals with high dynamic range is a hot issue in sampling research. The unlimited sampling theory expands the recordable range of traditional analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) arbitrarily, and the signal is folded back...

Multiplicative noise removal is a quite challenging problem in image denoising. In recent years, hyper-Laplacian prior information has been successfully introduced in the image denoising problem and significant denoising effects have been achieved. I...
