Coulomb potential in one dimension with minimal length: A path integral approach
We solve the path integral in momentum space for a particle in the field of
the Coulomb potential in one dimension in the framework of quantum mechanics
with the minimal length given by
, where is a small positive
parameter. From the spectral decomposition of the fixed energy transition
amplitude we obtain the exact energy eigenvalues and momentum space
eigenfunctions
PRESY: A Context Based Query Reformulation Tool for Information Retrieval on the Web
Problem Statement: The huge number of information on the web as well as the
growth of new inexperienced users creates new challenges for information
retrieval. It has become increasingly difficult for these users to find
relevant documents that satisfy their individual needs. Certainly the current
search engines (such as Google, Bing and Yahoo) offer an efficient way to
browse the web content. However, the result quality is highly based on uses
queries which need to be more precise to find relevant documents. This task
still complicated for the majority of inept users who cannot express their
needs with significant words in the query. For that reason, we believe that a
reformulation of the initial user's query can be a good alternative to improve
the information selectivity. This study proposes a novel approach and presents
a prototype system called PRESY (Profile-based REformulation SYstem) for
information retrieval on the web. Approach: It uses an incremental approach to
categorize users by constructing a contextual base. The latter is composed of
two types of context (static and dynamic) obtained using the users' profiles.
The architecture proposed was implemented using .Net environment to perform
queries reformulating tests. Results: The experiments gives at the end of this
article show that the precision of the returned content is effectively
improved. The tests were performed with the most popular searching engine (i.e.
Google, Bind and Yahoo) selected in particular for their high selectivity.
Among the given results, we found that query reformulation improve the first
three results by 10.7% and 11.7% of the next seven returned elements. So as we
can see the reformulation of users' initial queries improves the pertinence of
returned content.Comment: 8 page
Image Registration Methode in Radar Interferometry
This article presents a methodology for the determination of the registration of an Interferometric Synthetic radar (InSAR) pair images with half pixel precision. Using the two superposed radar images Single Look complexes (SLC) [1-4], we developed an iterative process to superpose these two images according to their correlation coefficient with a high coherence area. This work concerns the exploitation of ERS Tandem pair of radar images SLC of the Algiers area acquired on 03 January and 04 January 1994. The former is taken as a master image and the latter as a slave image
Ontologies and Bigram-based approach for Isolated Non-word Errors Correction in OCR System
In this paper, we describe a new and original approach for post-processing step in an OCR system. This approach is based on new method of spelling correction to correct automatically misspelled words resulting from a character recognition step of scanned documents by combining both ontologies and bigram code in order to create a robust system able to solve automatically the anomalies of classical approaches. The proposed approach is based on a hybrid method which is spread over two stages, first one is character recognition by using the ontological model and the second one is word recognition based on spelling correction approach based on bigram codification for detection and correction of errors. The spelling error is broadly classified in two categories namely non-word error and real-word error. In this paper, we interested only on detection and correction of non-word errors because this is the only type of errors treated by an OCR. In addition, the use of an online external resource such as WordNet proves necessary to improve its performances
