Library aware constructive decomposition offers a solution to this problem. Compact multi-level representation of binary networks, based on simple circuit structures, such as AND-inverter graphs (AIG) [1] [5], NAND graphs, OR-inverter graphs (OIG), AND-XOR-inverter graphs, reduced Boolean circuits [8] does exist in literature. In this work, we discuss a novel efficient synthesis method for combinational logic circuits, represented using a NAND-inverter graph (NIG), which is composed of only two-input NAND (NAND2) and inverter (INV) cells. The networks are constructed on the basis of irredundant disjunctive normal forms, comprising terms with minimal cardinality. Construction of a NIG for a non-regenerative function in normal form would be straightforward, whereas for the opposite phase, it would be developed by considering a virtual instance of the function. However, the choice of best NIG for a given function would be based upon node count and cell count needed for actual implementation at the technology independent stage. We compare the power efficiency and delay improvement achieved by optimal NIGs over minimal AIGs and OIGs for some case studies. In comparison with functionally equivalent and redundant AIGs, NIGs report mean savings in power and delay of 33.76% and 18.57% respectively, after technology mapping with a 0.35 micron TSMC CMOS process. For a similar comparison with OIGs, NIGs demonstrate average savings in power and delay of 45.67% and 20.92% respectively.","PeriodicalId":183910,"journal":{"name":"2007 Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129651747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chemical absorption is becoming one of the dominant CO2 capture technologies because of its efficiency and low cost. Since the chemical absorption process consists of dozens of components, it generates more than a hundred different types of data. Monitoring the vast amount of data can be complex, and data filtering and analysis processes are desirable. Specifically, invalid data captured as the equipment is started and shut down need to be filtered, and the filtered data need to be analyzed for different purposes. The data analysis support system not only filters out invalid data using different expert rules, but can also modify or reuse filtering settings, and export the filtered data to various file formats for further analysis. During development of the decision support system, knowledge acquisition was emphasized. The system was designed based on the model-view-control (MVC) design pattern. Source code management (SCM) software and strategy were applied to allow multiple developers to work together. Embedded database technology, Java event delivery techniques and extensible Markup Language (XML) were also included in development of the system.","PeriodicalId":183910,"journal":{"name":"2007 Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130515894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most of these methods mainly concentrate on how to minimize the cost function rather than attempting to improve its definition. We believe that regarding all advances made recently in cost function optimization area and also deeming results of some new experiments proving that even calculating the globally optimal solutions of energy minimization using re-weighted belief propagation approach does not solve most of the problems associated with common BP or GC based methods, the next logical step for further improvement is to devise cost functions which are better trimmed to cope with stereo matching major inherent problems. In this paper, we illustrate the importance of well-defined cost functions by incorporating six similarity measures, namely, Manhattan (LI), Euclidean (L2), Canberra, Bray-Curtis, Squared Chord and Square Chi-Squared into matching cost function and comparing the obtainable results. To accomplish this, we apply the test data and ground truth supplied on Middlebury college stereo webpage. Finally, we analyze the obtained results and discuss its impact on the design of enhanced matching cost functions.","PeriodicalId":183910,"journal":{"name":"2007 Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124197337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, applying conventional techniques to carry out this process manually is time-consuming and often unreliable and insufficiently accurate. Automating this process is a challenging task due to the fact of the fractal shape of tumor and its biological structure, which is often, has a high degree of intensity and textural similarity between normal areas and tumor tissues. Moreover, tumor uptake measurements are not easy given the small size of many tumors, the limitations of spatial resolution, and the change of tumor location from slice to slice across the brain. Furthermore, the arbitrary shape of tumors makes it extremely hard, if not impossible, to adopt traditional geometric rules for tumor measurements. In this paper, we present a computational approach for modeling and mining a large number of MRI data for patients with brain tumors. In this approach, we adopt a spatial data mining technique to extract useful information from MRI data in order to identify the size of tumors and growth trend, as well as classifying tumors of patients upon specific similarity measures.","PeriodicalId":183910,"journal":{"name":"2007 Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121208392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
