An analytic model for Ge/Si core/shell nanowire MOSFETs considering drift-diffusion and ballistic transport
In this paper an analytic model for Ge/Si core/shell nanowire MOSFETs (NWFETs) is developed. First, the electrostatic potential and charge model are derived out from classical device physics. Then the drift-diffusion drain current model is obtained and verified by comparisons with the numerical simulation. The ballistic current model is obtained with the approximately described quantummechanical effect through modifying the intrinsic carrier concentration under 2-dimensional confinement. With the proposed model, the performances of Ge/Si core/shell NWFETs are analyzed and significant characteristics are demonstrated in details. The analytic model in this paper provides a framework for further developing compact models of the NWFETs with Ge/Si core/shell heterostructure for circuit design and simulation.

Intelligent Crowd Simulation
Crowd simulation is a continuous challenge in computer animation. In this paper, we present an intelligent crowd simulation technique based on multiple autonomous agents. Each animated character (AC) is modeled as an autonomous agent, consisting of the perception, behavior planning and motion generation system. AC perceives the environment information, generates intentions and plans behaviors autonomously. To execute behaviors, appropriate motions are selected from the fundamental motion library (FML) and edited to create required motions. And the crowd behavior can be regarded as a combination of the individual behavior of each AC. The experiment shows the feasibility of this technique.

A New Algorithm of Gray Watermark Embedding
The problems of the digital information transmission safety, its’ copyright protection etc. are seriously increase. Digital watermark is one of the good solutions for many problems mentioned above. Generally the watermark information is a one-dimension random signal. Two-dimension gray watermark is difficult to guarantee the robustness of the information embedding. Put a new kind of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and the singular value decompose (SVD) on two-dimension gray watermark, the watermark becomes very strong robust to the compression, noise, low pass filter, high pass filter and median filter. It is useful for the safety of digital information transmission and its copyright protection.

Generic Carrier-Based Core Model for Four-Terminal Double-Gate MOSFET Valid for Symmetric, Asymmetric, SOI, and Independent Gate Operation Modes
A generic carrier-based core model for undoped four-terminal double-gate (DG) MOSFET valid for symmetric, asymmetric, SOI, and independent gate operation modes is presented in this paper. Based on the exact solution of the 1-D Poisson's equation of a general DG-MOSFET configure, a generic drain current model is derived from Pao-Sah's double integral in terms of the carrier concentration. The model is verified by extensive comparisons with 2-D numerical simulations under different bias conditions to all four terminals. The concise mathematic formulation allows the unification various double-gate models into a carrier-based core model for compact DG-MOSFET model development.

Video retargeting: automating pan and scan
When a video is displayed on a smaller display than originally intended, some of the information in the video is necessarily lost. In this paper, we introduce Video Retargeting that adapts video to better suit the target display, minimizing the important information lost. We define a framework that measures the preservation of the source material, and methods for estimating the important information in the video. Video retargeting crops each frame and scales it to fit the target display. An optimization process minimizes information loss by balancing the loss of detail due to scaling with the loss of content and composition due to cropping. The cropping window can be moved during a shot to introduce virtual pans and cuts, subject to constraints that ensure cinematic plausibility. We demonstrate results of adapting a variety of source videos to small display sizes.

Efficient Schemes for Monte Carlo Markov Chain Algorithms in Global Illumination
Current MCMC algorithms are limited from achieving high rendering efficiency due to possibly high failure rates in caustics perturbations and stratified exploration of the image plane. In this paper we improve the MCMC approach significantly by introducing new lens perturbation and new path-generation methods. The new lens perturbation method simplifies the computation and control of caustics perturbation and can increase the perturbation success rate. The new path-generation methods aim to concentrate more computation on "high perceptual variance" regions and "hard-to-find-but-important" paths. We implement these schemes in the Population Monte Carlo Energy Redistribution framework to demonstrate the effectiveness of these improvements. In addition., we discuss how to add these new schemes into the Energy Redistribution Path Tracing and Metropolis Light Transport algorithms. Our results show that rendering efficiency is improved with these new schemes.

Diffusion filtering in image processing based on wavelet transform
The nonlinear diffusion filtering in image processing bases on the heat diffusion equations. Its key is the control of diffusion amount. In the previous models, the diffusivity depends on the gradients of images. So it is easily affected by noises. This paper first gives a new multiscale computational technique for diffusivity. Then we proposed a class of nonlinear wavelet diffusion (NWD) models that are used to restore images. The NWD model has strong ability to resist noise. But it, like the previous models, requires higher computational effort. Thus, by simplifying the NWD, we establish linear wavelet diffusion (LWD) models that consist of advection and diffusion. Since there exists the advection, the LWD filter is anisotropic, and hence can well preserve edges although the diffusion at edges is isotropic. The advantage is that the LWD model is easy to be analyzed and has lesser computational load. Finally, a variety of numerical experiments compared with the previous model are shown.
