Magnetic resonance coupling between connected split ring resonators (SRRs) and magnetic plasmon (MP) excitations in the connected SRR chains were theoretically studied. By changing the connection configuration, two different coupling behaviors were observed, and therefore two kinds of MP bands were formed in the connected ring chains accordingly. From the extracted dispersion properties of MPs,...

This document defines the forwarding element (FE) model used in the Forwarding and Control Element Separation (ForCES) protocol. The model represents the capabilities, state, and configuration of forwarding elements within the context of the ForCES protocol, so that control elements (CEs) can control the FEs accordingly. More specifically, the model describes the logical functions that are pres...

For the power-law quantum wave packet in configuration space, the variance of the position observable may be divergent, and, accordingly, the Heisenberg-type formulation of the uncertainty principle becomes weak. In contrast to such a situation, the information-entropic formulation involves only finite quantities, thus displaying its superiority over the Heisenberg-type relation. We attempt to ...

This paper presents a weak supervised evaluation framework for definition question answering (DefQA) called Solon. It automatically evaluates a set of DefQA systems using existing human definitions as gold standard models. This allows the framework to overcome known limitations of the evaluation methods in the state of the art with the advantage that it is less supervised. In addition, Solon ad...

This paper extends the concept of “probabilistic completeness” defined for the motion planners in the state space (or configuration space) to the concept of “probabilistic completeness under uncertainty” for the motion planners in the belief space. Accordingly, an approach is proposed to verify the probabilistic completeness of the sampling-based planners in the belief space. Finally, through t...

We suggest a principle of intelligibility for complex networks accordingly to which any global characteristic relevant a node in a complex network (e.g. it's centrality, it's accessibility from other nodes, etc.) scales with its local property (degree). We also relate the properties of random walks defined on the dual graph representation of a transport network to the unique equilibrium configu...
