The existing evaluation methods for node importance in complex network mainly focus on undirected-unweighted complex networks, and can not reflect objectively the reality of some real world status. Focusing on the problems such as the limited scope of evaluation indexes and not enough comprehensive evaluation results in the undirected-weighted and directed-weighted networks, and the node importance evaluation method in undirected-unweighted networks based on mutual information was used for reference, a new evaluation method based on mutual information that is suitable for the undirected-weighted and directed-weighted networks was proposed. In this method, each edge was regarded as a flow of information, the structure characteristics of the corresponding complex networks and the definition method of "amount of information" were considered, then the amount of information was calculated as the node importance evaluation index. The analyses of the instance network show that the proposed algorithm can more detailed describe the differences between nodes in the directed-weighted network under the premise of guaranteeing estimation accuracy. In the evaluation of the ARPA (Advanced Research Project Agency) network nodes, the first five most important nodes number that were evaluated from the proposed algorithm and the previous indexes were especially close, so the algorithm's ability of finding the core nodes was highlighted. The proposed algorithm provides a certain theoretical help for evaluating the core nodes in the undirected-weighted and directed-weighted networks and improving the network invulnerability ability quickly and accurately.
For the inaccurate problem of the estimation of the blood flow velocity which is caused by the clutter signal in ultrasound Color Flow Imaging (CFI), this paper proposed a clutter suppression method based on dynamic region polynomial regression and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), called ARS algorithm. First, according to the time-domain characteristics and the energy intensity of the echo signal, this method adopted the dynamic partitioning method to distinguish the range of signal; then, according to the divided range, polynomial regression method or SVD method was selected to dynamically reject the clutter signal. This paper made a simulation to compare the proposed method with the projection initialized Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filter, the non-stationary filter, the regression filter and the SVD algorithm. The experimental results show that the proposed method can completely reject the interference of tissue motion (the velocity is almost zero in the tissue area and the clutter-to-blood ratio is about 5.427 dB after the clutter suppressing is implemented), the estimated maximum blood flow velocity (0.968 m/s) is close to the theoretical value and the blood flow distributes uniformly, the integrity of the blood flow velocity profile can be better maintained and the achieved blood flow velocity map illustrates the authentic flow velocity and high image quality.
Now the integer Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) algorithm of H.264 can not apply to Distributed Video Coding (DVC) framework directly because of its high complexity. In view of this, the authors presented a integer DCT algorithm and transform radix generating method based on fixed long step quantization which length was 2x (x was a plus integer). The transform radix in H.264 could be stretched. The authors took full advantage of this feature to find transform radix which best suits for working principle of hardware, and it moved the contracted-quantized stage from coder to decoder to reduced complexity of coder under the premise of "small" transform radix. In the process of "moving", this algorithm guaranteed image quality by saturated amplification for DCT coefficient, guaranteed reliability by overflow upper limit, and improved compression performance by reducing radix error. The experimental results show that, compared with corresponding module in H.264, the quantization method of this algorithm is convenient for bit-plane extraction. And it reduces calculating work of contracted-quantized stage of coder to 16 times of integer constant addition under the premise of quasi-lossless compression, raises the ratio of image quality and compression by 0.239. This algorithm conforms to DVC framework.
