The color hue modulates the phase of a subcarrier named color carrier. In PAL system the polarity of the phase in each frame is reversed to neutr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory%20of%20regions | The Theory of regions is an approach for synthesizing a Petri net from a transition system. As such, it aims at recovering concurrent, independent behavior from transitions between global states. Theory of regions handles elementary net systems as well as P/T nets and other kinds of nets. An important point is that the... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeneRec | GeneRec is a generalization of the recirculation algorithm, and approximates Almeida-Pineda recurrent backpropagation. It is used as part of the Leabra algorithm for error-driven learning.
The symmetric, midpoint version of GeneRec is equivalent to the contrastive Hebbian learning algorithm (CHL).
