TL;DR: By working directly on the whole image, the proposed CSC-SR algorithm does not need to divide the image into overlapped patches, and can exploit the image global correlation to produce more robust reconstruction of image local structures.
Abstract: Most of the previous sparse coding (SC) based super resolution (SR) methods partition the image into overlapped patches, and process each patch separately. These methods, however, ignore the consistency of pixels in overlapped patches, which is a strong constraint for image reconstruction. In this paper, we propose a convolutional sparse coding (CSC) based SR (CSC-SR) method to address the consistency issue. Our CSC-SR involves three groups of parameters to be learned: (i) a set of filters to decompose the low resolution (LR) image into LR sparse feature maps, (ii) a mapping function to predict the high resolution (HR) feature maps from the LR ones, and (iii) a set of filters to reconstruct the HR images from the predicted HR feature maps via simple convolution operations. By working directly on the whole image, the proposed CSC-SR algorithm does not need to divide the image into overlapped patches, and can exploit the image global correlation to produce more robust reconstruction of image local structures. Experimental results clearly validate the advantages of CSC over patch based SC in SR application. Compared with state-of-the-art SR methods, the proposed CSC-SR method achieves highly competitive PSNR results, while demonstrating better edge and texture preservation performance.

TL;DR: In this paper, a structural damage detection method based on modal strain energy (MSE) change before and after damage is presented, and the sensitivity of the MSE with respect to a damage is derived.
Abstract: A structural damage detection method based on modal strain energy (MSE) change before and after damage is presented in this paper. The localization of damage based on MSE of each structural element is briefly presented, and the sensitivity of the MSE with respect to a damage is derived. The sensitivity is not based on any series expansion and is a function of the analytical mode shape changes and the stiffness matrix. Only incomplete measured mode shapes and analytical system matrices are required in this damage localization and quantification approach. Results from a numerical example and an experiment on a single-bay, two-story portal steel frame structure are investigated. The effects of measurement noise and truncated analytical mode shapes are discussed. Results indicate that the proposed approach is noise sensitive, but it can localize single and multiple damages. Damage quantification of two damages is successful with a maximum of 14% error under a 5% measurement noise.

TL;DR: In this article, a case study of GHG emissions in building construction in Hong Kong is presented, and the results show that 82-87% of the total emissions are from the embodied GHGs emissions of building materials, 6-8% are from transportation of building material, and 6-9% are due to the energy consumption of construction equipment.

TL;DR: The study suggests that feed forward neural networks can be used as a viable alternative to physical-based models to simulate the responses of the aquifer under plausible future scenarios or to reconstruct long periods of missing observations provided past data for the influencing variables is available.
