Caustic spot light for rendering caustics

It is difficult to render caustic patterns at interactive frame rates. This paper introduces new rendering techniques that relax current constraints, allowing scenes with moving, non-rigid scene objects, rigid caustic objects, and rotating directional light sources to be rendered in real-time with GPU hardware acceleration. Because our algorithm estimates the intensity and the direction of caustic light, rendering of non-Lambertian surfaces is supported. Previous caustics algorithms have separated the problem into pre-rendering and rendering phases, storing intermediate results in data structures such as photon maps or radiance transfer functions. Our central idea is to use specially parameterized spot lights, called caustic spot lights (CSLs), as the intermediate representation of a two-phase algorithm. CSLs are flexible enough that a small number can approximate the light leaving a caustic object, yet simple enough that they can be efficiently evaluated by a pixel shader program during accelerated rendering.We extend our approach to support changing lighting direction by further dividing the pre-rendering phase into per-scene and per-frame components: the per-frame phase computes frame-specific CSLs by interpolating between CSLs that were pre-computed with differing light directions.     

Collapse-free thermal bonding technique for large area microchambers in plastic lab-on-a-chip applications

Bonding is an essential step to form microchannels or microchambers in lab-on-a-chip applications. In this paper, we present a novel plastic thermal bonding technique to seal and form large area microchambers (planar characteristic width and length on the order of 1 mm and characteristic thickness on the order of 10–100 μm) without collapse by introducing a holed pressure equalizing plate (HPEP) that includes holes of the same size and shape as the microchambers. To demonstrate the proposed technique, two types of large area microchambers [(1) 20 × 10 mm and 40 μm thick and (2) 12 × 2.5 mm and 120 μm thick] with microchannels were designed and replicated on plastic substrates by means of hot embossing and injection molding processes with prepared two nickel mold inserts. The replicated large area microchambers as well as the microchannels in the plastic lab-on-a-chip were successfully sealed (i.e., no leakage) and formed without any collapse by the proposed thermal bonding technique with the help of the HPEP.

VDBSCAN:变密度聚类算法

传统的密度聚类算法不能识别并聚类多个不同密度的簇。对此提出了变密度聚类算法VDBSCAN,针对密度不稳定的数据集,可有效识别并同时聚类不同密度的簇,避免合并和遗漏。VDBSCAN算法的基本思想是:根据k-dist图和DK分析,对数据集中的不同密度层次自动选择一组Eps值,分别调用DBSCAN算法。不同的Eps值,能够找到不同密度的簇。4个二维数据集实验验证了VDB-SCAN算法的有效性,表明VDBSCAN算法可以有效地聚类密度不均匀的数据集,且参数Eps的自动选择方法也是有效的和健壮的。     

基于支持向量机的红细胞彩色图像分割

对红细胞进行精确的分割并统计各类参数在临床医学中有着重要的意义,但现有经典算法很难实现自动分割并获得较高准确率。红细胞的分割主要有两个难点：一是红细胞的目标提取;二是重叠红细胞的分割。本文首先利用SVM对原始图像进行红细胞提取,把原始细胞分割成红细胞和背景两类目标区域,然后对红细胞区域进行重叠分割（本文中使用改进距离标记的分水岭算法）,最终得到各个红细胞的统计数据。为获得最佳的分割效果,本文通过实验对核函数、支持向量类型及相关参数进行了详细的比较和分析。实验结果表明,该算法能有效、快捷、准确、全自动的实现

基于凸凹信号的网格分割

网格分割在网格参数化、纹理atlas图等几何处理问题中有着重要的应用,提出一种基于顶点或面凸凹信号的简单高效的网格分割算法,基于均匀支撑半径的顶点凸凹信号分析将顶点分为平坦点、凸点、凹点和特征点,先从平坦点进行平坦区域扩展,再从剩下的凸凹点出发进行凸凹区域扩展,最后根据顶点和边界边的光滑度进行区域竞争扩展;对于未能完全分割的简化程度高的模型,基于面的凸凹信号采用类似的过程进一步完成最后的分割,该算法可以快速地进行网格分割并能较好地保持网格特征,特别适用于CAD模型的分割。

针对Naive Scaler的改进

决策表离散化要求决策表中原有的分类结果不变,而NaiveScaler算法在离散化时,有些根据不可分辨关系应该得到的断点很可能被丢掉,造成决策表信息的丢失.针对这一问题,对其进行了研究并改进.原算法在扫描相同条件属性值而决策值不同的对象时,由于这些对象的排序不同可能造成离散的结果不同.主要是在这里某些断点可能被遗漏,并引进新的冲突.为此,当条件属性值变化时查看其决策属性值,若有不同决策属性值则追加断点以消除断点被丢掉的可能.进而使得到的初始断点集更可靠.最后给出实例表明该算法有效.
