In this paper we presented a image relaxation matching method based on feature points. This method can be considered as an extention of regular grid point based matching. It avoids the shortcome of grid point based matching. For example, with this method, we can avoid low or even no texture area where errors frequently appear in cross correlaton matching. In the mean while, it makes full use of some mature techniques such as probability relaxation, image pyramid and the like which have already been successfully used in grid point matching process. Application of the technique to DEM generaton in different regions proved that it is more reasonable and reliable.展开更多

However, it is often difficult to understand the behavior of gossiping algorithms in an analytic fashion. Indeed, existing analyses of gossip algorithms are either based on simulation or based on ideas borrowed from epidemic models while inheriting some features that do not seem to be appropriate for the setting of gossiping. On one hand, in epidemic spreading, an infected node typically intends to spread the infection an unbounded number of times （or rounds）; whereas in gossiping, an infected node （i.e., a node having received the message in question） may prefer to gossip the message a bounded number of times. On the other hand, the often assumed homogeneity in epidemic spreading models （especially that every node has equal contact to everyone else in the population） has been silently inherited in the gossiping literature, meaning that an expensive mcnlbership protocol is often needed for maintaining nodes＇ views. Motivated by these observations, the authors present a characterization of a popular class of fault-tolerant gossip schemes （known as ＂push-based gossiping＂） based on a novel probabilistic model, while taking the afore-mentioned factors into consideration.展开更多
