Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, Vol. 132, No. 12 (Dec., 2004), pp. 3491-3502 (12 pages) We educe an orthonormal system of step functions for the interval [0,1]. This system contains ...

Orthogonal moments have emerged as robust mathematical descriptors in image analysis and pattern recognition, offering a compact and invariant representation of image features. By decomposing images ...

The Handbook of Mathematical Functions by Milton Abramovich and Irene Stegun is the one book I would wish to have on a desert island. Unlike a novel, it withstands infinities of rereadings. Its ...

The method of empirical orthogonal function analysis is applied to wind stress vectors over the tropical Pacific Ocean from 1961 through 1978. It is determined that this vector analysis enables a more ...
