The aim of the current work is to incorporate structural information in judgments of similarity . According to the assumption of feature independence, how one feature affects similarity is independent of the values of the other features present. We present three violations of this assumption, all arising from the influence of relations between features and of relations between relations . A sha...

Let/j(z),... ,/m(z) be polynomials with complex coefficients, and let their product be of degree n. For any polynomial, let | |/ | | be the maximum of \J[z)\ on the unit circle. We determine constants Cm < 2 for which II/ill " ll/mll ^ C^H/j •••/„,|| for any n. The inequalities are asymptotically sharp as n ->oo. This improves earlier results of Gel'fond and Mahler, who gave the constants e and...

It is shown that for every annulus P = {z 6 Cn : 6 < \z\ < r}, b > 0, there exists a set-valued correspondence z —> K{z): P —> 2C , whose graph is a bounded relatively closed subset of the manifold {(z,w) 6 Px Cn : ziwi + ■ ■ ■ + ZnWn = 1} which can be covered by n-dimensional analytic manifolds. The analytic set-valued selection K obtained thereby is then applied to several problems in complex...

This paper presents an energy-e cient, single-chip, 1024-point FFT processor. The full-custom, 460,000transistor design has been fabricated in a standard 0.7 m (Lpoly = 0:6 m) CMOS process and is fully functional on rst-pass silicon. At a supply voltage of 1.1V, it calculates a 1024-point complex FFT in 330 sec at a clock speed of 16 MHz while consuming 9.5 mW, resulting in an adjusted energy e...

A characteristic function T(D, w, f) of Shimizu and Ahlfors type for a function / meromorphic in a Riemann surface R is defined, where D is a regular subdomain of R containing a reference point w G R. Next we suppose that R has the Green functions. Letting T(w,f) = Mthdir T{D,w,f), we define / to be of uniformly bounded characteristic in R, f G UBC(i?) in notation, if sup^g/j T(w, f) < oo. We s...
