Spectrum decomposition in Gaussian scale space for uneven illumination image binarization. by JianWu Long, ZeRan Yan, HongFa Chen, XinLei Song

“…Although most images in industrial applications have fewer targets and simple image backgrounds, binarization is still a challenging task, and the corresponding results are usually unsatisfactory because of uneven illumination interference. In order to efficiently threshold images with nonuniform illumination, this paper proposes an efficient global binarization algorithm that estimates the inhomogeneous background surface of the original image constructed from the first k leading principal components in the Gaussian scale space (GSS). …”

Constructing the infrared conformal generators on the fuzzy sphere by Giulia Fardelli, Andrew Liam Fitzpatrick, Emanuel Katz

“…We show how to extract these generators using the energy momentum tensor, which is complicated by the fact that one does not have a priori access to the energy momentum tensor of the CFT limit but rather must construct it numerically. We discuss and quantitatively analyze the main sources of corrections to the conformal generators due to the breaking of scale-invariance at finite energy, and develop efficient methods for removing these corrections. …”
