Estimating multiple transmitter locations from power measurements at multiple receivers
We consider the estimation of the locations of multiple transmitters based on received signal strength measurements at a network of randomly-placed receivers. We generalize the ex...

ICA based on a Smooth Estimation of the Differential Entropy
In this paper we introduce the MeanNN approach for estimation of main information theoretic measures such as differential entropy, mutual information and divergence. As opposed to...
