Essentially it finds a configuration of data points in a low dimensional space (two dimensions in our case) that best captures the proximity of points in a higher dimensional space (six dimensional in our case).
In this study, we made a configuration of three-point bending with targeting holes by employing the FIB to etch the silicon wafer substrate, separate and pick up single NRs from the substrate, and place them lying over the grid.
In other contexts, however, related approaches have been developed: for instance, in chemistry and computer vision a general method for quantifying how close a single configuration of points is to a symmetric shape, for any type of symmetry [ 40, 41], and in engineering a method to incorporate symmetry in computations of the mechanical loading of structures [ 42].
Formally, we want to find a criteria which allows us to link an ordered configuration of points (i.e., a cage) with contour shapes so that we may use the existing tools to determine shape similarity between different contours, for cages.
Given a specific configuration of points on the image plane, different 3D non-rigid shapes and camera motions can be found that fit the measurements.
Practical investigation of the repeatability of sound intensity measurements and the influence of some measurement parameters, such as the distance from the source, scanning pattern and speed, configuration of points and point density, on sound power determination has been presented.
Results provide a starting point for a configuration of an evaluation approach consistent with complexity theory, whilst also identifying a number of design considerations to be resolved within evaluation planning.
In Wagner's pronouncements and dealings with people, Adorno points out, is "a configuration of envy, sentimentality and destructiveness".
The proposed analysis and the algorithm simplify the process of finding the optimal configuration of point to point optical links and provide an optimized component allocation with an improved ASE noise performance.
