HosnyProblem statement: Template matching is a famous methodology that has a wide range of applications in image and signal processing. For a template and input image, template matching methodology finds the partial input image that is most closely matches the template image in terms of specific criterion such as the Euclidean distance or cross-correlation. Approach: In this study, a fast … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 30 Jul 2010 · 7,617 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Outlier Detection in Linear RegressionNethal K. Jajo, Xizhi WuNew methodology of robust outlier detection based on Robustly Studentized Robust Residuals (RSRR) examination is well established in linear regression analysis. Two new robust location estimators of linear regression parameters are developed in simple and multiple cases. Based on these robust estimators we obtain RSRR. We used RSRR to derive a new measure of distance to be used in outlier … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 6,933 accessesView PDFCite
