Representation of discrete sequences with high-dimensional iterated function systems (Q842141): Difference between revisions

From author's abstract: ``Iterated Function System (IFS) models have been used to represent discrete sequences where the attractor of the IFS is self-affine or piece-wise self-affine in \(\mathbb{R}^2\) or \(\mathbb{R}^3\) (\(\mathbb{R}\) is the set of real numbers). In this paper, the piece-wise hidden-variable fractal model is extended from \(\mathbb{R}^3\) to \(\mathbb{R}^n\) (\(n\) is an integer greater than \(3\)), which is called the high-dimensional piece-wise hidden-variable model. This new model uses a `mapping partial derivative' and a constrained inverse algorithm to identify the model parameters. The model values depend continuously on all the hidden variables. Therefore, the result is very general.'' In the paper under review, Section 1 is a general advertisement of Iterated Function Systems in sciences and engineering, Section 2 sets up a piece-wise hidden-variable model in \(n\) dimensions, Section 3 gives an inverse algorithm (and consists of several pages of computations, but no conceptual proofs), and Section 4 is a conclusion with a very broad scope.
