Special attention is paid to the issues of synthesis of mathematical and software for processing digital images when evaluating the linear resolution of aerial photographic systems. The basis of the mathematical support is the original method for evaluating the linear resolution on the ground using the modulation transfer function, taking into account the results of the flight experiment. The software is implemented in an automated complex for image processing of digital aerial photographic systems, which automatically calculates the modulation transfer function based on the results of the flight experiment. The research methodology combines methods of systems analysis, digital image processing, probability theory, mathematical modeling and software engineering.

Abstract: Usability evaluation of web information systems is relevant and useful both for developers and for customers. One of the most important ways of evaluating the performance of information web-systems can be considered to estimate the so-called behavioral factors. Almost all currently used methods involve significant financial and time investments, but also depend on the number and level of knowledge of the participants specifically recruited focus groups. This is a rather laborious process, not always bringing the expected result with a clear evaluation and recommendations for improving the conversion of web-system. Therefore, the maximum visualization of the results of the assessment will significantly increase the information content and reduce the complexity of the evaluation of the system under study. For example, visualization of the pattern of behavior of user of the web-system. The display of the list of visited pages and the pages from which the user came to the website, will assess a few important indicators: the depth of view, the source of referrals to the site, as well as to simulate and evaluate the pattern of user behavior in the system. Moreover the clarity and the simplicity of the resulting circuit allows to use it both for professionals and owners of web-based systems. The article is devoted to description of methods for identifying usability problems of web systems, as well as description of how the program works to identify and visualize the behavior pattern of the user of based graph.

Abstract: The subject of study in algebra is a ternary (three-dimensional) hypercomplex numbers (triplexes). Since the time of Hamilton (1983) algebras of hypercomplex numbers attracted the attention of researchers. The largest number of papers in this area is dedicated to quaternion algebra and bicomplex numbers, as well as its applications to the solution of various problems of science and technology. Algebra of ternary (three-dimensional) hypercomplex numbers is less studied. However, it is undoubtedly promising in solving problems related to processing of point objects and fields in three-dimensional Euclidean space. The main objective of the article is forming a basis of idempotent algebra of three-hypercomplex numbers. Idempotent bases are typical for commutative multiplicative algebras without division. Such bases provide a simple definition and way of studying mathematical constructions of hypercomplex numbers as well as a significant increase in computational efficiency. The paper presents all possible unit vectors of potential idempotent bases of triplex numbers. The authors highlight two idempotent bases providing not excessive presentation of triplexes. The main attention is given the study of one of these bases with complex unit vectors. The paper shows, that idempotent triplexes basis allows formulating the definition of arithmetic operations and triplex argument functions in terms of the well-studied algebra of real and complex numbers. At the same time mentioned basis provides a high computational efficiency for calculating values of these operations and functions.

Abstract: The paper deals with the methodology of an assessment of technical efficiency of network infrastructure. Much attention is given to research of methods of visualization of performance metrics on the basis of comparing of the evaluated sample with a set of alternative decisions in the conditions of stochastic nature of behavior of an external environment. The method of visualization of time response characteristics of access to resources of the Internet offered in operation is developed especially for demonstration of advantages which can be received when using the concept of "cognitive Internet". Unlike numerical efficiency characteristics the offered method of visualization allows to envelop "one look" a status of all channels of access in comparison with the optimum channel on the given time slot of integration. At the same time the method doesn't exclude possibility of sharing of the coordinated numerical efficiency characteristics. On the other hand it is important to mark that scope of a method isn't restricted to the specified applications.Methods of multivariate statistic analysis (methods of discriminant function analysis and principal component analysis) are the basis for algorithm elaboration of visualization of time response characteristics of access to resources of the Internet. The main result of the conducted research is algorithm elaboration and the software of visualization of metrics of productivity of infrastructure decisions in the field of ensuring access to Internet resources. Novelty of this research is defined not only novelty of data domain (technology of the cognitive Internet), but also the form of representation of results (a projection of the hodograph of time response characteristics of access to the most informative plane).

Abstract: Among combinatorial algorithms of additive number theory the algorithms of the algorithms for listing compositions of natural numbers have a special place. On the one hand, ideologically, they are among the simplest algorithms in mentioned theory. On the other hand, they play a huge role in all applications somehow connected with the polynomial theorem. In recent years, due to the rapid development of the general theory of risk ideas underlying the polynomial theorem were involved to in the challenges of risk measurement in homogeneous systems of high dimensionality. Solving these problems requires providing mass listing compositions numbers of fixed length and calculating the amount of such compositions for sufficiently large values of both number and the length of composition. In these circumstances, the most urgent task is in effective implementation of these algorithms. The presented article is devoted to the questions related with the synthesis of efficient algorithms for listing the compositions of fixed length and calculating the amount of such compositions. As a methodological base of this study authors use certain facts of set theory, approaches of theory of complex algorithms, as well as some basic results of the theory of numbers. Within this paper, the author propose a new efficient implementation of two algorithms: algorithm for listing all the compositions of fixed length based on the idea of multiset representation of the number partitions and algorithm for calculating the amounts of the compositions of given kind, implemented without involvement of high bitness machine arithmetic. The article shows not only an estimate of the complexity of the proposed algorithms but also presents the results of numerical experiments demonstrating the effectiveness of the implementation of the algorithms discussed in the VBA programming language.

Abstract: Evaluation of risks of system development is an urgent task for a for a variety of disciplines such as economics and sociology, technology and ecology, the system studied at the intersection of different disciplines. Often the parameters of such systems are discrete, set of possible states is bounded. The application package “MultiMIR” was designed to evaluate risks of development in such systems. An important difference of “MultiMIR” from other application is in achievement of polynomial computational complexity for some classes of systems, while most analogues offer only exponential complexity. The article describes: purpose of the application, main ideas used as a basis for algorithms, application architecture. The author gives an overview of ways of using the application. The conceptual basis of the theory used in the development of algorithms implemented in “MultiMIR” is in theoretical probabilistic approach. As a specific mathematical apparatus the author has chosen formalism of theory of multisets, which, in author’s opinion, has the richest expressive possibilities for the study in the described the subject area. As a programming system used in the development of the first version of the application the author used VBA-subsystem office with Microsoft Office. The selection of the programming system is dictated by the features and preferences of the primary target of the package: banking and financial analysts. Using “MultiMIR” allowed for the first time to provide accurate calculation of such non-linear measures of risk as expected utility, distorted probability measure, "Value at Risk", and so on for medium and large homogeneous portfolios term financial instruments without involving time-consuming analytical methods. Unlike traditionally used for this purpose Monte Carlo method, approached based on the described above application allows obtaining an exact solution using a comparable amount of CPU resource. “MultiMIR” application can also be used for verification of reliability of the results obtained using Monte Carlo methods considered classical in the financial risk management.
