Edge linking connects edge pixels that are likely part of the same boundary or object. Local edge linking looks at small neighborhoods around each pixel to link similar nearby pixels based on gradient magnitude and direction. Global edge linking uses the Hough transform to link pixels that fall on the same lines or curves by accumulating pixels that satisfy line or curve equations in a parameter space. The Hough transform allows efficient global edge linking compared to a brute force approach.

STATE SPACE GENERATION FRAMEWORK BASED ON BINARY DECISION DIAGRAM FOR DISTRIB...csandit
This paper proposes a new framework based on Binary Decision Diagrams (BDD) for the graph distribution problem in the context of explicit model checking. The BDD are yet used to represent the state space for a symbolic verification model checking. Thus, we took advantage of high compression ratio of BDD to encode not only the state space, but also the place where each state will be put. So, a fitness function that allows a good balance load of states over the nodes of an homogeneous network is used. Furthermore, a detailed explanation of how to
calculate the inter-site edges between different nodes based on the adapted data structure is presented

In today’s fast-changing business environment, it’s extremely important to be able to respond to client needs in the most effective and timely manner. If your customers wish to see your business online and have instant access to your products or services.
Online Grocery Store is an e-commerce website, which retails various grocery products. This project allows viewing various products available enables registered users to purchase desired products instantly using Paytm, UPI payment processor (Instant Pay) and also can place order by using Cash on Delivery (Pay Later) option. This project provides an easy access to Administrators and Managers to view orders placed using Pay Later and Instant Pay options.
In order to develop an e-commerce website, a number of Technologies must be studied and understood. These include multi-tiered architecture, server and client-side scripting techniques, implementation technologies, programming language (such as PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and MySQL relational databases. This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.

Image segmentation (10.2.7) SLIDE 1/13
10.2.7 Edge linking and boundary detection
Edge detection is always followed by edge linking
Local processing
• Analyze pixels in small neighbourhood Sxy of each edge point
• Pixels that are similar are linked
• Principal properties used for establishing similarity:
(1) M(x, y) = |∇f(x, y)|: Magnitude of gradient vector
(2) α(x, y): Direction of gradient vector
• Edge pixel with coordinates (s, t) in Sxy is similar in magnitude to pixel at
(x, y) if
|M(s, t) − M(x, y)| < E
• Edge pixel with coordinates (s, t) in Sxy has an angle similar to pixel at
(x, y) if
|α(s, t) − α(x, y)| < A
• Edge pixel (s, t) in Sxy is linked with (x, y) if both criteria are satisfied

Image segmentation (10.2.7) SLIDE 2/13
The above strategy is expensive. A record has to be kept of all linked points
by, for example, assigning a different label to every set of linked points
Simplification suitable for real-time applications:
(1) Compute M(x, y) and α(x, y) of input image f(x, y)
(2) Form binary image
g(x, y) =
1, if M(x, y) TM AND α(x, y) ∈ [A − TA, A + TA]
0, otherwise
(3) Scan rows of g and fill (set to 1) all gaps (sets of 0s) in each row that
do not exceed a specified length K
(4) Rotate g by θ and apply step (3). Rotate result back by −θ.
Image rotation is expensive ⇒ when linking in numerous directions is re-
quired, steps (3) and (4) are combined into a single, radial scanning proce-
dure.

Regional processing (Polygonal approximations)
A conceptual understanding of this idea is sufficient
Requirements: (1) Two starting points must be specified; (2) All the points
must be ordered
Large distance between successive points, relative to the distance between
other points ⇒ boundary segment (open curve) ⇒ end points used as start-
ing points
Seperation between points uniform ⇒ boundary (closed curve) ⇒ extreme
points used as starting points

Global Processing using the Hough transform
• We attempt to link edge pixels that lie on specified curves
• Brute force method:
When the specified curve is a straight line, the line between each pair of
edge pixels in the image is considered. The distance between every other
edge pixel and the line in question is then calculated.
When the distance is less than a specified threshold, the pixel is considered
to be part of the line
Number of calculations for n edge pixels:
Number of possible lines:
n−1
k=1 k = n(n−1)
2 ≈ n2
Distances per line: n
Total number of distances: n2(n−1)
2 ≈ n3
When n = 2562
then number of calculations is 1.4 × 1014

Image segmentation (10.2.7) SLIDE 7/13
• Hough transform (1962)
When different values for a and b are considered, yi = axi+b gives all possible
lines through the point (xi, yi)
The equation b = −xia+yi gives one line in the ab-plane for a specific (xi, yi)
When another point (xj, yj) is considered, b = −xja + yj represents another
line in the ab-plane
Suppose that these two lines intersect at the point (a′
, b′
), then y = a′
x + b′
represents the line in the xy-plane on which both (xi, yi) and (xj, yj) lie
Since a computer can only deal with a finite number of straight lines, we
subdivide the parameter space ab into a finite number of accumulator cells...

Algorithm:
(1) Set all cells equal to zero
(2) For every (xk, yk)
(2.1) Let a = every subdivision on the a-axis
(2.2) Calculate b = −xka + yk
(2.3) Round off b to the nearest allotted value on the b-axis
(2.4) Increment accumulator cell (a, b) with 1
Note: When there are K subdivisions on the a-axis, we need only nK
calculations, which is linear (recall that we needed n3
calculations for the
brute force method)

Image segmentation (10.2.7) SLIDE 9/13
We still have a problem though, since −∞ a ∞ and −∞ b ∞!
In order to deal with this problem, we now represent a straight line as follows
x cos θ + y sin θ = ρ
so that (a, b) → (ρ, θ)

Algorithm for edge linking:

(2) Specify subdivisions in the ρθ-plane
(3) Apply Hough transform to edge pixels
(4) Identify accumulator cells with highest values
(5) Examine continuity of pixels that constitute cell
(6) Link these pixels if gaps are smaller than threshold
Extension to more general graphs
• Hough transform applicable to any graph g(v, c) = 0, where v is vector of
coordinates and c is vector of coefficients
• Example: Find the points that lie on a circle
(x − c1)2
+ (y − c2)2
= c2

The presence of three parameters (c1, c2 and c3) results in a 3-D parameter
