A numerical experiment of ideal stochastic motion of a particle subject to conservative forces and Gaussian noise reveals that the path probability depends exponentially on action. This distribution implies a fundamental principle generalizing the least action principle of the Hamiltonian/Lagrangian mechanics and yields an extended formalism of mec...
The architectural semantics of Information-Centric Networking bring in interesting features in regards to mobility management: Information-Centric Networking is content-oriented, connection-less, and receiver-driven. Despite such intrinsic advantages, the support for node movement is being based on the principles of IP solutions. IP-based solutions...
The averaged variational principle (AVP) is applied to various biharmonic operators. For the Riesz mean $R_1(z)$ of the eigenvalues we improve the known sharp semiclassical bounds in terms of the volume of the domain with a second term with the expected power of $z$. The method intrinsically also yields two-sided bounds for individual eigenvalues, ...

In recent years, deep learning has been successfully used in order to classify partial discharges (PDs) for assessing the condition of insulation systems in different electrical equipment. However, fault diagnosis using deep learning is still challenging, as it requires a large amount of training data, which is difficult and expensive to obtain in ...

Due to the high throughput and high computing capability of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), researchers are paying increasing attention to the design of CNNs hardware accelerator architecture. Accordingly, in this paper, we propose a block parallel computing algorithm based on the matrix transformation computing algorithm (MTCA) to realize th...

Short-time (sliding) transform based on discrete Hartley transform (DHT) is often used to estimate the power spectrum of a quasi-stationary process such as speech, audio, radar, communication, and biomedical signals. Sliding transform calculates the transform coefficients of the signal in a fixed-size moving window. In order to speed up the spectra...

Miniaturized capacitive microphones often show sensitivity degradation in the low-frequency region due to electrical and acoustical time constants. For low-frequency sound detection, conventional systems use a microphone with a large diaphragm and a large back chamber to increase the time constant. In order to overcome this limitation, an electret ...

We present a pixel-level angle sensitive detector composed of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) photodiode (PD) stacked with a gold surface plasmon (SP) antenna to affect the direction of the incoming light. The surface plasmons are excited in the grating-type SP antenna and enhance the diffraction efficiency of the grating. The diffracted light is couple...

While increasing power output is the most straight-forward solution for faster and stronger motion in technology, sports, or elsewhere, efficiency is what separates the best from the rest. In nature, where the possibilities of power increase are limited, efficiency of motion is particularly important; the same principle can be applied to the emergi...

Considering that two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum trioxide has acquired more attention in the last few years, it is relevant to speed up thickness identification of this material. We provide two fast and non-destructive methods to evaluate the thickness of MoO3 flakes on SiO2/Si substrates. First, by means of quantitative analysis of the apparent co...
