Automatic Clustering of Multipath Arrivals in Radio-Frequency Channels using Kurtosis

Automatic Clustering of Multipath Arrivals in Radio-Frequency Channels using Kurtosis

In wireless propagation, the multipath arrivals of a transmitted signal appear clustered at the receiver. Because the notion of clusters tends to be intuitive rather than well-defined, cluster identification in channel modeling has traditionally been

SHREC13 Track: Large Scale Sketch-Based 3D Shape Retrieval

Sketch-based 3D shape retrieval has become an important research topic in content-based 3D object retrieval. The aim of this track is to measure and compare the performance of sketch-based 3D shape retrieval methods based on a large scale hand-drawn sketch

Practical Challenges When Implementing a Distributed Population of Cloud-Computing Simulators Controlled by a Genetic Algorithm

Practical Challenges When Implementing a Distributed Population of Cloud-Computing Simulators Controlled by a Genetic Algorithm

The recent explosion of affordable multicore, multichip systems, coupled with cluster management software, encourages the development of novel distributed applications for exploring large parameter spaces. We expect many such applications will soon appear

In-plane Rotation and Scale Invariant Clustering and Dictionary Learning

In-plane Rotation and Scale Invariant Clustering and Dictionary Learning

n this paper, we present an approach that simulta- neously clusters images and learns dictionaries from the clusters. The method learns dictionaries in the Radon transform domain, while clustering in the image domain. The main feature of the proposed

Traceability for Aerosol Electrometer in the fA Range

Traceability for Aerosol Electrometer in the fA Range

Described here are the configurations and procedures used to provide traceability to electrical standards for an aerosol electrometer calibration in the range ± 20 fA to ± 40 fA. The technique used here simulated the condition of a current induced when

Modeling a Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network

Modeling a Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network

As governments plan nationwide, interoperable broadband networks for their public safety services, the challenge arises of determining how and where to invest limited resources to meet demanding requirements. The United States is at the early stages of

Testing quantum expanders is co-QMA-complete

Testing quantum expanders is co-QMA-complete

A quantum expander is a unital quantum channel that is rapidly mixing, has only a few Kraus operators, and can be implemented efficiently on a quantum computer. We consider the problem of estimating the mixing time (i.e., the spectral gap) of a quantum

Perron-Frobenius Measure of Systemic Risk of Cascading Overload in Complex Clouds: Work in Progress

Dynamic resource sharing has both positive and negative effects on the system performance. Current research mostly concentrates on the positive effect resulting from the statistical multiplexing gain. However, the negative effect resulting from the

The Economic Benefits from Improved Cyber Security Infrastructure

Leading government officials have warned that a "cyber 9/11" could happen at any time. A coordinated terrorist cyber attack on a massive scale could potentially shut down the domestic economy. Even without such a pervasive assault, banks, utilities, and

A Case Study of Performance Degradation Attributable to Run-Time Bounds Checks on C++ Vector Access

A Case Study of Performance Degradation Attributable to Run-Time Bounds Checks on C++ Vector Access

Programmers routinely omit run-time safety checks from applications because they assume that these safety checks would degrade performance. The simplest example is the use of arrays or array-like data structures that do not enforce the constraint that
