On some families of subsemigroups of a numerical semigroup
(Cartagena de Indias, 2020-04-07)To a given numerical semigroup S we associate a family of subsemigroups {휕nS}, n ∈ ℕ, that permits us to understand some of the structure of S. We characterize this family in case S is a supersymmetric numerical semigroup ... -
On the compensation of uneven illumination in retinal images for restoration by means of blind deconvolution
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016)Retinal eye fundus images are used for diagnostic purposes, but despite controlled conditions in acquisition they often suffer from uneven illumination and blur. In this work, we propose the use of multi-channel blind ... -
On the computation of LFSR characteristic polynomials for built-in deterministic test pattern generation
