Image synthesis techniques are present in a wide range of applications as they leverage the amount of information required for creating realistic visualizations. For fast hardware rendering they usually employ a triangle-based representation describing the geometry of the scene. In this paper, we introduce a new and simple framework for performing on-the-fly refinement and simplification of meshes completely on the GPU. As we aim at making easy the integration of level-of-detail management into the creation workflow of artists, the presented method is easy to be implemented. We only need a coarse mesh, its displacement map and a geometry shader. At rendering time, we employ a geometry shader to parallelize the tessellation and displacement steps. The tessellation step performs uniform refinement or simplification operations by applying a fixed subdivision criterion. Our method also exploits coherence by taking advantage of the last computed mesh. We provide a method which offers a flexible integration with standard 3D tools, easy to be implemented, coherence exploitation and wholly processed by the GPU.

In the presented paper, some issues of the fundamental classical mechanics theory in the sense of Ising physics are introduced into the applied neural network area. The expansion of the neural networks theory is based primarily on introducing Hebb postulate into the mean field theory as an instrument of analysis of complex systems. Appropriate propositions and a theorem with proofs were proposed. In addition, some computational background is presented and discussed.

In the present paper, the neural networks theory based on presumptions of the Ising model is considered. Indirect couplings, the Dirac distributions and the corrected Hebb rule are introduced and analyzed. The embedded patterns memorized in a neural network and the indirect couplings are considered as random. Apart from the complex theory based on Dirac distributions the simplified stationary mean field equations and their solutions taking into account an ergodicity of the average overlap and the indirect order parameter are presented. The modeling results are demonstrated to corroborate theoretical statements and applied aspects.

This paper considers some aspects of using a cascade-correlation network in the investment task in which it is required to determine the most suitable project to invest money. This task is one of the most often met economical tasks. In various bibliographical sources on economics there are described different methods of choosing investment projects. However, they all use either one or a few criteria, i.e., out of the set of criteria there are chosen most valuable ones. With this, a lot of information contained in other choice criteria is omitted. A neural network enables one to avoid information losses. It accumulates information and helps to gain better results when choosing an investment project in comparison with classical methods. The cascade-correlation network architecture that is used in this paper has been developed by Scott E. Fahlman and Cristian Lebiere at Carnegie Mellon University.

The principles of a neural network environmental model are proposed. The principles are universal and can use different neural network architectures. Such a model is self-organizing, it can operate in both regimes with and without a teacher. It codes information about objects, their features, the actions operating in an environment, analyzes concrete situations. There are functions for making an action plan, for action control. The goal of the model is given from an external site. The model has more than sixteen active regimes. The neural network environmental model is fulfilled in software and hardware tools.
