A sparse variant of the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm implemented by levmar has been APPLIED to bundle adjustment, a computer vision/photogrammetry problem that typically involves several thousand variables
There are many algorithms that can be APPLIED to graphs. Many of these are actually used in the real world,
such as Dijkstra’s algorithm to find shortest paths. We will discuss a few here.
This book describes the applications of the fundamental interactions of
electromagnetic waves and materials as described in the preceding volume, “Basic
Electromagnetism and Materials”. It is addressed to students studying masters or
doctorate courses in electronics, electromagnetism, APPLIED physics, materials
physics, or chemical physics. In particular, this volume analyzes the behavior of
materials in the presence of an electromagnetic field and related applications in the
fields of electronics, optics, and materials physics.
This document was developed under the Standard Hardware and Reliability Program (SHARP) TechnologyIndependent Representation of Electronic Products (TIREP) project. It is intended for use by VHSIC HardwareDescription Language (VHDL) design engineers and is offered as guidance for the development of VHDL modelswhich are compliant with the VHDL Data Item Description (DID DI-EGDS-80811) and which can be providedto manufacturing engineering personnel for the development of production data and the subsequent productionof hardware. Most VHDL modeling performed to date has been concentrated at either the component level orat the conceptual system level. The assembly and sub-assembly levels have been largely disregarded. Under theSHARP TIREP project, an attempt has been made to help close this gap. The TIREP models are based upon lowcomplexity Standard Electronic Modules (SEM) of the format A configuration. Although these modules are quitesimple, it is felt that the lessons learned offer guidance which can readily be APPLIED to a wide range of assemblytypes and complexities.
A MEMS microphone IC is unique among Analog Devices, Inc., products in that its input is an acoustic pressure wave. For this reason, some specifications included in the data sheets for these parts may not be familiar, or familiar specifications may be APPLIED in unfamiliar ways. This application note explains the specifica-tions and terms found in MEMS microphone data sheets so that the microphone can be appropriately designed into a system.
Abstract: A laser module designer can use a fixed resistor, mechanical pot, digital pot, or a digital-to-analogconverter (DAC) to control the laser driver's modulation and bias currents. The advantages of a programmablemethod (POT or DAC) are that the manufacturing process can be automated and digital control can be APPLIED(e.g., to compensate for temperature). Using POTs can be a more simple approach than a DAC. There can be aslight cost advantage to using a POT, but this is usually not significant relative to other pieces of the design.Using a DAC can offer advantages, including improved linearity (translating to ease of software implementationand ability to hit the required accuracy), increased board density, a wider range of resolutions, a betteroptimization range, ease of use with a negative voltage laser driver, and unit-to-unit consistency
