Numerical techniques applied to magnetic recording (invited)

Magnetic tunneling applied to memory (invited)

Random access magnetoresistive memories have been designed using anisotropic magnetoresistive ~AMR! material and more recently giant magnetoresistive ~GMR! material. The thin films in these memories have low sheet resistivities ~about 10 V/sq!, resulting in cell resistances of 10 to 100 V at competitive areal densities. High sense currents of a mA or more are required to get signals on the orde...

Neurophysiological Recording Techniques Applied to Insect Chemosensory Systems

The aim of this chapter is to discuss current electrophysiological recording techniques used to study the processing of olfactory and gustatory information in insects. More specifically, we will describe methods employed (a) to determine the physiological properties of gustatory (GRCs) and olfactory receptor cells (ORCs) in the peripheral nervous systems and (b) to physiologically characterize ...

Role of thermodynamic fluctuations in magnetic recording (invited)

Pose Estimation by Applied Numerical Techniques

Pose estimation using analysis-by-synthesis techniques has been a topic within computer vision for quite a time. These techniques often make use of numerical optimization algorithms required to work in high dimensional work spaces. In this article we apply two algorithms which to the best of our knowledge have never been used in this context. The first algorithm is based on a generalisation of ...

Overview of compressive sensing techniques applied in holography [Invited].

In recent years compressive sensing (CS) has been successfully introduced in digital holography (DH). Depending on the ability to sparsely represent an object, the CS paradigm provides an accurate object reconstruction framework from a relatively small number of encoded signal samples. DH has proven to be an efficient and physically realizable sensing modality that can exploit the benefits of C...
