A Nonlinear Autoregressive Model with Exogenous Variables Neural Network for Stock Market Timing: The Candlestick Technical Analysis

In this paper, the nonlinear autoregressive model with exogenous variables as a new neural network is used for timing of the stock markets on the basis of the technical analysis of Japanese Candlestick. In this model, the “nonlinear autoregressive model with exogenous variables” is an analyzer. For a more reliable comparison, here (like the literature) two approaches of  Raw-based and Signal-ba...

Faster Static Timing Analysis via Bus Compression

Static timing analysis is used extensively in the design of high-performance processors. In this paper we present a method which transforms the circuit graph used by timing analysis algorithms to a smaller one, and hence results in faster timing analysis. This transformation, called bus compression, may lead to a more conservative analysis. However, experiments on several large designs yielded ...

A Performance Optimization Method by Gate Resizing Based on Statistical Static Timing Analysis

This paper discusses a gate resizing method for performance enhancement based on statistical static timing analysis. The proposed method focuses on timing uncertainties caused by local random fluctuation. Our method aims to remove both over-design and under-design of a circuit, and realize highperformance and high-reliability LSI design. The effectiveness of our method is examined by 6 benchmar...
