The development of modern integration technologies is normally driven by the needs of digital CMOS circuit design. Rapid progress in silicon VLSI technologies has made it possible to implement multi-function and high ...

Temporal data mining is concerned with the exploration of large sequential (or temporally ordered) data sets to discover some nontrivial information that was previously unknown to the data owner. Sequential data sets come ...

A document image, beside text, may contain pictures, graphs, signatures, logos, barcodes, hand-drawn sketches and/or seals. Further, the text blocks in an image may be in Manhattan or any complex layout. Document Layout ...

Electric power distribution network is an important part of electrical power systems for delivering electricity to consumers. Electric power utilities worldwide are increasingly adopting the computer aided ...

In the recent years, there has been a trend to run metallic pipelines carrying petroleum products and high voltage AC power lines parallel to each other in a relatively narrow strip of land. The case of electromagnetic ...

Face recognition is one of the most natural activities performed by the human beings. It has wide range of applications in the areas of Human Computer Interaction, Surveillance, Security etc. Face information of people can ...

Information-theoretic arguments focus on modeling the reliability of information transmission, assuming availability of infinite data at sources, thus ignoring randomness in message generation times at the respective ...

TO achieve high level of integration in order to reduce cost, heterodyne architecture has made way for low-IF and zero-IF (direct conversion) receiver architectures. However, a very serious issue in implementing both zero ...

Game theory and mechanism design have emerged as an important tool to model, analyze,and solve decentralized design problems involving multiple agents that interact strategically in a rational and intelligent way. Some ...

Kullback-Leibler relative-entropy or KL-entropy of P with respect to R defined as ∫xlnddPRdP , where P and R are probability measures on a measurable space (X, ), plays a basic role in the definitions of classical information ...
