Soft errors in combinational and sequential elements of digital circuits are an increasing concern as a result of technology scaling. Several techniques for gate and latch hardeni...
—This paper introduces a new high-rate analysis of the multiple description scalar quantizer (MDSQ) with balanced descriptions. The analysis provides insight into the structure o...
This paper proposes the fractional component analysis (FCA), whose goal is to decompose the observed signal into component signals and recover their fractions. The uniqueness of o...
A novel (differential) entropy estimator is introduced where the maximum entropy bound is used to approximate the entropy given the observations, and is computed using a numerical ...
People intuitively understand that function and purpose are critical parts of what human-configured entities are about, but these notions have proved difficult to capture formally....
