| Abstract: | A number string is a sequence of positive integers from a set (1,2,3, ..., p) 5; N. Interlocking Number String(INS) is a number string in which certain length of adjacent numbers are meaningfully interrelated. Code matrix is a matrix generated using INS. The development of INS and code matrix is novel, and has a practical origin. In addition, INS and code matrix has interesting theoretical characteristics. One may use this characteristics to develop tools and methodologies in various applications. This paper discusses basic theories on INS and code matrix, and briefly presents an application of the code matrix in computer vision area. The applications of INS and code matrix in real world problems are greatly anticipated. |
