An effective way to in situ monitor the metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) of HgCdTe/CdTe/ZnTe on GaAs or GaAs/Si
substrates is presented. Specular He-Ne laser reflectance was used to in situ monitor the growth rates, layer thickness, and
morphology for each layer in the grown multilayer structure. In situ monitoring has enabled precise measurements of ZnTe nucleation
and CdTe buffer layer thicknesses. Monitoring the constancy of reflectance during the thicker CdTe buffer growth where absorption
in the CdTe reduces reflectance to just the surface component has led to optimum buffer growth ensuring good quality of subsequently
grown HgCdTe. During the interdiffused multilayer process (IMP) HgCdTe growth, because multiple interfaces are present within
the absorption length, a periodic reflectance signal is maintained throughout this growth cycle. A theoretical model was developed
to extract IMP layer thicknesses from in situ recorded experimental data. For structures that required the growth of a larger
band gap HgCdTe cap layer on top of a smaller band gap active layer, in situ monitored reflectance data allowed determination
of alloy composition in the cap layer as well. Continuous monitoring of IMP parameters established the stability of growth
conditions, translating into depth uniformity of the grown material, and allowed diagnosis of growth rate instabilities in
terms of changes in the HgTe and CdTe parts of the IMP cycle. A unique advantage of in situ laser monitoring is the opportunity
to perform “interactive” crystal growth, a development that is a key to real time MOCVD HgCdTe feedback growth control. 相似文献

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is an emerging technique for monitoring the concentration changes of oxy- and deoxy-hemoglobin (oxy-Hb and deoxy-Hb) in the brain. An important consideration in fNIRS-based neuroimaging modality is to conduct group-level analysis from a set of time series measured from a group of subjects. We investigate the feasibility of multilevel statistical inference for fNIRS. As a case study, we search for hemodynamic activations in the prefrontal cortex during Stroop interference. Hierarchical general linear model (GLM) is used for making this multilevel analysis. Activation patterns both at the subject and group level are investigated on a comparative basis using various classical and Bayesian inference methods. All methods showed consistent left lateral prefrontal cortex activation for oxy-Hb during interference condition, while the effects were much less pronounced for deoxy-Hb. Our analysis showed that mixed effects or Bayesian models are more convenient for faithful analysis of fNIRS data. We arrived at two important conclusions. First, fNIRS has the capability to identify activations at the group level, and second, the mixed effects or Bayesian model is the appropriate mechanism to pass from subject to group-level inference. 相似文献

Performance measures for video object segmentation and tracking 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We propose measures to evaluate quantitatively the performance of video object segmentation and tracking methods without ground-truth (GT) segmentation maps. The proposed measures are based on spatial differences of color and motion along the boundary of the estimated video object plane and temporal differences between the color histogram of the current object plane and its predecessors. They can be used to localize (spatially and/or temporally) regions where segmentation results are good or bad; and/or they can be combined to yield a single numerical measure to indicate the goodness of the boundary segmentation and tracking results over a sequence. The validity of the proposed performance measures without GT have been demonstrated by canonical correlation analysis with another set of measures with GT on a set of sequences (where GT information is available). Experimental results are presented to evaluate the segmentation maps obtained from various sequences using different segmentation approaches. 相似文献

In this correspondence, the problem of directional and multiscale edge detection is considered. Orthogonal and linear-phase M-band wavelet transform is used to decompose the image into MxM channels. These channels are then combined such that each combination, which we refer to as decomposition filter, results in zero-crossings at the locations of edges corresponding to different directions and resolutions, and inherently performs regularization against noise. By applying a zero-crossing detector on the outputs of the decomposition filters, edge maps of desired resolution and direction are obtained. In addition, with the application of the Teager's energy operator at the analysis stage, it is possible to obtain a reduction in unwanted zero-crossings. Final edge maps of images are obtained through simple combinations of directional edge maps. 相似文献

Two new design techniques for adaptive orthogonal block transforms based on vector quantization (VQ) codebooks are presented. Both techniques start from reference vectors that are adapted to the characteristics of the signal to be coded, while using different methods to create orthogonal bases. The resulting transforms represent a signal coding tool that stands between a pure VQ scheme on one extreme and signal-independent, fixed block transformation-like discrete cosine transform (DCT) on the other. The proposed technique has superior compaction performance as compared to DCT both in the rendition of details of the image and in the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) figures. 相似文献

Preliminary results of a study of the hydrogenation of HgCdTe epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on Si substrates using
a glow-discharge plasma are presented. The aim of the program is to employ H to passivate the detrimental opto-electronic
effects of threading dislocations present in the HgCdTe epilayers. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy depth profiling has been
performed to characterize 1H and 2H incorporation. It has been found that H can be controllably incorporated in HgCdTe epilayers to levels in the 1014 cm−3 to 1018 cm−3 range while maintaining the sample at temperatures lower than 60°C. Profiles indicate that H accumulates in regions of known
high defect density or in highly strained regions. Analysis of the H depth profile data indicates that the current density-time
product is a good figure of merit to predict the H levels in the HgCdTe epilayer. There are progressive differences in the
1H and 2H uptake efficiencies as a function of depth. Magneto-Hall measurements show consistently higher mobilities at low temperatures
for majority carriers in hydrogenated samples. 相似文献

Finding landmark positions on facial images is an important step in face registration and normalization, for both 2D and 3D face recognition. In this paper, we inspect shortcomings of existing approaches in the literature and compare several methods for performing automatic landmarking on near-frontal faces in different scales. Two novel methods have been employed to analyze facial features in coarse and fine scales successively. The first method uses a mixture of factor analyzers to learn Gabor filter outputs on a coarse scale. The second method is a template matching of block-based Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) features. In addition, a structural analysis subsystem is proposed that can determine false matches, and correct their positions. 相似文献

Estimation of survivability of communication networks 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Communication networks may lose their end-to-end connectivity as a result of events that affect large portions of their topology. Survivability analysis of networks is used to determine this connectivity loss in view of the spatial dependency of damaging events. A dependent damage model and an extension of reliability algorithms are used systematically with Monte Carlo simulation for the survivability estimation of communications networks.<> 相似文献

The feasibility of laser reflectometry for in situ monitoring and control of OMVPE AlGaAs was demonstrated. The optical constants, refractive index and extinction coefficient, of the AlGaAs alloys at the growth temperature were obtained for 633 nm wavelength. These data were used in closed loop control of thickness and composition during deposition of heterostructure layers. Laser reflectometry was also instrumental in the observation of unintentional composition gradients at the substrate-epilayer interfaces in atmospheric pressure vertical flow reactors. 相似文献

We present a compression technique that provides progressive transmission as well as lossless and near-lossless compression in a single framework. The proposed technique produces a bit stream that results in a progressive, and ultimately lossless, reconstruction of an image similar to what one can obtain with a reversible wavelet codec. In addition, the proposed scheme provides near-lossless reconstruction with respect to a given bound, after decoding of each layer of the successively refinable bit stream. We formulate the image data-compression problem as one of successively refining the probability density function (pdf) estimate of each pixel. Within this framework, restricting the region of support of the estimated pdf to a fixed size interval then results in near-lossless reconstruction. We address the context-selection problem, as well as pdf-estimation methods based on context data at any pass. Experimental results for both lossless and near-lossless cases indicate that the proposed compression scheme, that innovatively combines lossless, near-lossless, and progressive coding attributes, gives competitive performance in comparison with state-of-the-art compression schemes. 相似文献
