nthispaperwewillpresentthelocalstabilityanalysisandlocalerrorestimatefor the local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method, when solving the time-dependent singularly perturbed problems in one dimensional space with a stationary outflow boundary layer. Based on a general framework on the local stability, we obtain the optimal error estimate out of the local subdomain, which is nearby the outflow boundary point and has the width of O(h log(1/h)), for the semi-discrete LDG scheme and the fully-discrete LDG scheme with the second order explicit Runge–Kutta time-marching. Here h is the maximum mesh length. The numerical experiments are given also.

Motivated by the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy of biofluids (urine and blood serum), we present a recursive blind source separation (rBSS) method for nonnegative and correlated data. BSS problem arises when one attempts to recover a set of source signals from a set of mixture signals without knowing the mixing process. Various approaches have been developed to solve BSS problems relying on the assumption of statistical independence of the source signals. However, signal independence is not guaranteed in many real-world data like the NMR spectra of chemical compounds. The rBSS method introduced in this paper deals with the nonnegative and correlated signals arising in NMR spectroscopy of biofluids. The statistical independence requirement is replaced by a constraint which requires dominant interval(s) from each source signal over some of the other source signals in a

We propose a framework for global registration of building scans. The first contribution of our work is to detect and use portals (e.g. doors and windows) to improve the local registration between two scans. Our second contribution is an optimization based on a linear integer programming formulation. We abstract each scan as a block and model the block registration as an optimization problem that aims at maximizing the overall matching score of the entire scene. We propose an efficient solution to this optimization problem by iteratively detecting and adding local constraints. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method on buildings of various styles and we show that our approach is superior to the current state of the art.

We prove that Mark Gross’ [8] topological Calabi-Yau compactifications can be made into symplectic compactifications. To prove this we develop a method to construct singular Lagrangian 3-torus fibrations over certain a priori given integral affine manifolds with singularities, which we call simple. This produces pairs of compact symplectic 6-manifolds homeomorphic to mirror pairs of Calabi-Yau 3-folds together with Lagrangian fibrations whose underlying integral affine structures are dual.

We consider an embedded convex compact ancient solution t to the curve shortening flow in R2. We prove that t is either a family of contracting circles, which is a type I ancient solution, or a family of evolving Angenent ovals, which is of type II.
