Logarithmic Number Systems (LNS) offer a viable alternative in terms of area, delay and power to binary number systems for multiplication and division operations in signal process...
This paper proposes optimizations of the methods and parameters used in both mathematical approximation and hardware design for logarithmic number system (LNS) arithmetic. First, ...
Estimating the number of distinct elements in a large multiset has several applications, and hence has attracted active research in the past two decades. Several sampling and sket...
Many multimedia applications rely on the computation of logarithms, for example, when estimating log-likelihoods for Gaussian Mixture Models. Knowing of the demand to compute loga...
At Northeastern University we are building a number of courses upon a common embedded systems platform. The goal is to reduce the learning curve associated with new architectures ...
