Abstract—Computing maximum-likelihood bounds on the performance of systems involving partial response (PR) channels, with or without an error correcting code present, is rather c...
We describe a new course designed to introduce engineering students to computational thinking. One of the most significant challenges in teaching an introductory-level applied co...
Abstract. The Minimum Description Length (MDL) is an informationtheoretic principle that can be used for model selection and other statistical inference tasks. One way to implement...
Irregular applications, which rely on pointer-based data structures, are often difficult to parallelize. The inputdependent nature of their execution means that traditional paral...
Abstract. Two new techniques based on nonparametric estimation of probability densities are introduced which improve on the performance of equivalent robust methods currently emplo...
