    Lithophane leeae Walsh, sp. n. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 0C3824FD-E817-4FA0-9A40-488521E6013B Figs. 1, 2 Type material. Holotype female. (Fig.1): USA, Arizona, Cochise County, Chiricahua Mountains, Onion Saddle, 7700', 14 June 2007. B. Walsh leg. Presently in the private collection of Bruce Walsh, to be deposited in the McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity. DNA sequence in the BOLD Barcode of life data system (Ratnasingham and Hebert 2007). Etymology. Known from a singularly unique female festooned in pink, this species is named after the author’s wife, Lee Fulmer. Diagnosis. While superficially similar to L. atara (Smith) (Fig. 3) in maculation, Lithophane leeae is the largest known species in the genus Lithophane. Although Lithophane leeae keys out to L. atara in the key of Troubridge and Lafontaine (2003), it clearly differs from L. atara in being a significantly larger species (forewing length 25 mm vs. 18-20 mm), with more extensive and brighter pink on the dorsal surface of the hindwing (Fig. 1) and on both wings on the ventral surface (Fig. 2). While the male is presently undescribed, male specimens should be easily recognized once found given the distinct appearance and barcode of L. leeae. Description. Female (male: unknown). A large species with extensive pink suffusion on the dorsal hind wing and both wings on the ventral surface. Dorsal surface – forewing ground color gray brown, with a large reniform spot almost touching the orbicular spot. There is a deep zigzag in antemedial (am) and postmedial (pm) lines into median area fold where am and pm lines are connected by a thick black dash. Similar but thinner dashes occur from medial dash to subterminal (st) line, from lower margin of reniform spot to st line, and at wing base. Subterminal line deeply zigzagged. Basal two-thirds of hindwing heavily suffused with pink, with a light brown on outer third. Discal lunule prominent and brown. Ventral surface – ground color heavily suffused with pink on basal two-thirds of both fore- and hindwing. Reniform spot and discal lunule dark brown and prominent. Abdomen – pink lateral tufts of hair at distal end. Differs from L. atara in its much larger size (25.0 versus 18.0 mm forewing length in L. atara) and extensive bright pink suffusion on dorsal hindwing and very extensive pink suffusion on fore- and hindwings ventrally. Biology and Distribution. The only known specimen was collected in mid-June at 7700’ elevation in the Chiricahua Mountains, Arizona. Attracted to mercury-vapor lights. Based on its phylogenetic position and biology of other Lithophanae, L. leeae is most likely a pine-feeder and probably hibernates as an adult, flying in early spring.Published as part of Walsh, J., 2009, Lithophane leeae (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Xyleninae), a striking new species from southeastern Arizona, pp. 21-26 in ZooKeys 9 (9) on pages 22-24, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.9.184, http://zenodo.org/record/57644

    Walsh functions: shape analysis and other applications

    No full text
    Due to their binary nature, the Walsh functions have considerable advantages over the traditional sinusoidal functions used in Fourier analysis when the computations are carried out by a general purpose binary digital computer. The important properties of the Walsh functions which illustrate these advantages are examined and developed. The Walsh transform and spectrum are presented in relation to the problem of function approximation, and various computational procedures for effecting the transform are explained. The unconventional 'logical' transform is developed from the Walsh transform, and there is a discussion on the subject of interpreting the resulting spectrum. There are other functions, such as the Haar functions, which are closely related to the Walsh functions, and their advantages are indicated. The process of shape analysis is dealt with in terms of its relation to the more widely treated problem of pattern recognition. An application of shape analysis, using Walsh functions, to a study of leaf shapes is illustrated by experimental results. A completely different approach to shape analysis is taken in the chapter on Pattern Generation and Simulation of Growth Processes. Other applications of Walsh functions, particularly of the 'logical' transform, are discussed in the final chapter. Throughout, tested computer programs are used to provide examples, back up conjectures, and generally illustrate numerous points in the text

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2013.Esta dissertação de mestrado é uma tradução cultural comentada ao português brasileiro dos contos "Los nutrieros", "En defensa propia", "Los ojos del traidor" e "El viaje circular", presentes na obra Cuento para tahúres y otros relatos policiales, escritos por Rodolfo Jorge Walsh (1927-1977) entre 1951 e 1961 e publicados em 1987, dez anos após sua morte. Walsh foi um dos mais representativos escritores argentinos do século XX,o qual revolucionou a literatura de seu tempo, tanto no que se refere ao tratamento que dava aos problemas sociais e políticos como nas questões estéticas de sua obra. Nosso corpus é composto de contos do gênero policial, dessa forma, procuramos encontrar a melhor maneira de levar à língua fonte (espanhol) as características desse gênero na língua alvo(português). O trabalho divide-se em três capítulos, sendo o primeiro um ensaio introdutório sobre a construção de Walsh como escritor, enfatizando o policial, gênero ao qual os contos, objeto desse estudo, pertencem. Esse capítulo tem como objetivo apresentar o escritor e seu gênero de escrita ao leitor brasileiro. Já o segundo trata de um trabalho com questões relacionadas ao projeto tradutório:a tradução cultural comentada, que servirá de suporte teórico para o terceiro e último capítulo, no qual se dá a apresentação da tradução feita juntamente com os comentários sobre o percurso. Abstract : This Master Thesis is a cultural translation commented from Spanish to Brazilian Portuguese of the tales "En defensa propia", "Los nutrieros", "Losojos del traidor" and "El viaje circular", from the book Cuento para tahúresy otros relatos policiales, written by Rodolfo Jorge Walsh (1927-1977) between 1951 and 1961 and which were published in 1987, 10 years afterhis death. Walsh was one of the most significant Argentine writers of thet wentieth century, which revolutionized the literature of his time, not onlyin social and politic terms but also aesthetics issues. Our corpus consists oftales of the detective genre, this way, we find the best way to get to the source language (Spanish) the characteristics of this genre in the target language (Portuguese).The work presented here contains three chapters: the first being an introductory essay on the construction of Walsh as a writer, emphasizing the cop genre to which the tales, the object of this study belong; aiming to introduce him and his style to Brazilian readers; the second is to work with issues related to the project of translation: translating cultural commentary, which will provide theoretical support for the thirdand final chapter, in which he gives a presentation of the translation made with the submission of comments on the route

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnológico. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Elétrica.Esta dissertação apresenta um estudo da aplicação da Transformada de Walsh-Hadamard (WHT) em diferentes sistemas OFDM. Os sistemas avaliados envolvem a transmissão sem fio entre uma antena transmissora e uma receptora (sistema SISO), e duas antenas transmissoras e uma receptora (sistema MISO Alamouti). A WHT espalha o sinal de informação antes de ser modulado no sistema OFDM. Conseqüentemente, os efeitos de desvanecimento provocados pelos canais correspondentes a cada subportadora OFDM também são espalhados, resultando em uma condição de desvanecimento médio destes canais. Isto leva a um aumento da robustez dos canais das subportadoras que mais sofreram com a transmissão puramente OFDM, mas degrada a condição de desvanecimento das mais robustas. Para verificar esta característica da WHT e o ganho de desempenho que ela possa impactar ao sistema OFDM, foram realizadas simulações com sistemas OFDM com e sem o uso da WHT. Assim, foi possível avaliar o desempenho desta técnica no

    Low computational complexity variable block size (VBS) partitioning for motion estimation using the Walsh Hadamard transform (WHT)

    No full text
    Variable Block Size (VBS) based motion estimation has been adapted in state of the art video coding, such as H.264/AVC, VC-1. However, a low complexity H.264/AVC encoder cannot take advantage of VBS due to its power consumption requirements. In this paper, we present a VBS partition algorithm based on a binary motion edge map without either initial motion estimation or Rate-Distortion (R-D) optimization for selecting modes. The proposed algorithm uses the Walsh Hadamard Transform (WHT) to create a binary edge map, which provides a computational complexity cost effectiveness compared to other light segmentation methods typically used to detect the required region
