Choosing the parameters of multiple-repetition strategies
نویسنده
چکیده
The class of multiple-repetition strategies is known to achieve capacity for specific discrete memoryless channels with noiseless feedback. We show, given an arbitrary discrete memoryless channel with noiseless feedback, that the repetition parameters should be chosen close to the self information of a transmission error to maximise the transmission rate. Furthermore, it is indicated how close the channel capacity can be approached in the general case. Finally, we compare some results on a related problem: the capacity of a discrete noiseless channel with constraints on the input symbols. Copyright # 2006 AEIT.

Guessing in Multiple Choice Questions: Challenges and Strategies
Introduction: Guessing is one of the most challenging issues in multiple choice questions. Several strategies, such as negative scoring, have been suggested for preventing students from choosing the right answer just by chance. However, there is no general agreement on using such strategies. The aim of this study was to review the scoring methods which are used for reducing guessing, and evalua...
متن کامل‘Repetition’ in Arabic-English Translation: The case of Adrift on the Nile
Abstract This study investigates ‘repetition’ in the English translation of the Arabic Novel, Adrift on the Nile (1993). It aims to explore the communicative functions of ‘repetition’ and to see if these functions have been maintained or lost in the process of translating the Novel. In addition, it seeks to find the translation strategies used in rendering ‘repetition’. To achieve this aim, a d...

متن کاملDesigning a dual-core photonic crystal fiber coupler by means of microfluidic infiltration
We report the results of our study on the role of microfluidic infiltration technique in improving the coupling characteristics of dual-core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) couplers. Using the finite element method (FEM), we evaluate the effective mode area, dispersion and coupling parameters of an infiltrated dual-core PCF. We use these parameters to design a compact and reconfigurable coupler by...
متن کاملA Comparative Study in Relation to the Translation of the Linguistic Humor
Mark Twain made use of repetition and parallelism as two comedic literary devices to bring comic effect to the readers. Linguistic devices of humor, repetition and parallelism seemed to create many difficulties in the translation of literary texts. The present study applied Delabatista‟s strategies for translating wordplays such as repetition and parallelism in the translation of humorous texts...
