Possible coding and scanning methods for two-dimensional position-sensing are reviewed. Encoding schemes for one type of scanning method, namely "Window-scanning", are examined in some detail.

0.1 Proofs of Theorems 4.1, 4.2 & 5.2 Proof of Theorem 4.1: Let bn = pn+ln, where pn = b √ nc. Define a block of observations as Bn(i) = i + bn(0, 1], i ∈ Z. We first divide Rn into non-overlapped blocks of observations. Let Kn = {k ∈ Z : Bn(bnk) ⊂ Rn} represents the index set of all complete blocks Bn(bnk) = bn(k + (0, 1]) lying inside Rn. For each k ∈ Kn, we further divide each block into lar...

There are few works on the problem of heavy noise corruption in wavelet-based speech enhancement. In this paper, a new method is introduced to adapt the weighting function for wavelet coefficients (WCs) in each subband. The idea is based on that the change of WC variance in speech-dominated frames is larger than the change of WC variance in noisedominated frames. We can define a weighting funct...

The study of flavor-changing neutral current decays is of fundamental interest. They provide a sensitive window in which to search for possible new physics effects beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. Measurements of these processes at rates significantly above the Standard Model would point, unambiguously, to new physics. One such decay of interest is B+ → K+νν . Herein, we discuss t...

This paper analyzes the scaling window of a random CSP model (i.e. model RB) for which we can identify the threshold points exactly, denoted by rcr or pcr. For this model, we establish the scaling window W (n, δ) = (r − (n, δ), r+(n, δ)) such that the probability of a random instance being satisfiable is greater than 1 − δ for r < r − (n, δ) and is less than δ for r > r+(n, δ). Specifically, we...

A quantum mechanical observer might be describable as having a reference system that is a superposition of classical inertial reference frames. The present paper suggests a possible weighting function in such superpositions, determined by the product of the observer’s wavefunction and the Fourier transform of the wavefunction at each point in phase space. This suggestion is made because each of...

A total of 69 sixththrough eighth-grade students rated their experiences with antisocial and prosocial teases as well as their general attitudes toward teases. Subsequently, the participants read hard copies of four ambiguous teases, one at a time, posted on a simulation of “their” Facebook wall by four different, hypothetical acquaintances. After reading each tease, the participants were asked...

We analyze the time-frequency concentration of the Gabor orthonormal basis G(f,1,1) constructed by Høholdt, Jensen, and Justesen. We prove that their window function f has near optimal time and frequency localization with respect to a non-symmetric version of the Balian-Low Theorem. In particular, we show that if (p, q) = (3/2,3), then R |t||f(t)|dt < ∞, and R |γ|| b f(γ)|dγ < ∞, for 0 < ǫ ≤ 3/...
