One of the most prominent techniques to enhance performance practical quantum key distribution (QKD) systems with laser sources is decoy-state method. Current QKD setups operate at GHz repetition rates, a regime where memory effects in modulators and electronics that control them create correlations between intensities emitted pulses. This translates into information leakage about selected inte...

MOTIVATION We present a new approach to the analysis of images for complementary DNA microarray experiments. The image segmentation and intensity estimation are performed simultaneously by adopting a two-component mixture model. One component of this mixture corresponds to the distribution of the background intensity, while the other corresponds to the distribution of the foreground intensity. ...
