  1. 1. Modeling the Diversification Benefit of Transmission Investmentstany

    University essay from KTH/Elektriska energisystem

    Author : Mahir Sarfati; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : It is well known that transmission investment yields two major bene_ts: (a) it allows cheaper remote generation to substitute for more expensive local generation, (the e_ciency bene_t) and (b) by increasing the diversi_cation of uncorrelated generation sources, allows a reduction in the volume of balancing services required (the diversi_cation bene_t). Conventional transmission planning processes tend to focus exclusively on the e_ciency bene_t. READ MORE

  2. 2. Modeling the diversification benefit of transmission investments : in the presence of uncorrelated generation sources

    University essay from KTH/Elektriska energisystem

    Author : Mahir Sarfati; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : It is well known that transmission investment yields two major benets: (a) it allows cheaper remote generation to substitute for more expensive local generation, (the efficiency benefit) and (b) by increasing the diversication of uncorrelated generation sources, allows a reduction in the volume of balancing services required (the diversification benefit). Conventional transmission planning processes tend to focus exclusively on the efficiency benefit. READ MORE

  3. 3. Video coding using compressed transportation plans

    University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Johan Lissing; [2007]
    Keywords : video coding; kantorovich distance; transportation plan;

    Abstract : A transportation plan is a byproduct from the calculation of the Kantorovich distance between two images. It describes a transformation from one of the images to the other. This master thesis shows how transportation plans can be used for video coding and how to process the transportation plans to achieve a good bitrate/quality ratio. READ MORE

  4. 4. Video Coding Based on the Kantorovich Distance

    University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Martin Östman; [2004]
    Keywords : Technology; Video coding; image compression; Kantorovich; transportation plan; distance function; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : In this Master Thesis, a model of a video coding system that uses the transportation plan taken from the calculation of the Kantorovich distance is developed. The coder uses the transportation plan instead of the differential image and sends it through blocks of transformation, quantization and coding. READ MORE
