Continuous technology scaling has brought us to a point, where transistors have become extremely susceptible to cosmic radiation strikes, or soft errors. Inside the processor, cac...
A new system is presented for general symbol segmentation, which is applicable for segmentation of any connected string of symbols, including characters and line diagrams. Using a...
