Coprime factorizations of transfer functions play various important roles, e.g., minimality realizations, stabilizability systems, etc. This paper studies the Bézout condition over ring E′(ℝ_) distributions compact support and M(ℝ_) measures with support. These spaces are known to crucial roles in state space representations controllability behaviors. We give a detailed review results obtained ...

runoff is one of the major components of calculating water resource processes and is the main issue in hydrology. many concept models are used to predict the amount of runoff, which in most cases depend on topographical and hydrological data. conventional models are not appropriate for areas in which there is little hydrological data. changes in runoff are nonlinear, meaning it is time & space ...

The choice of transfer functions may strongly influence complexity and performance of neural networks. Although sigmoidal transfer functions are the most common there is no a priori reason why models based on such functions should always provide optimal decision borders. A large number of alternative transfer functions has been described in the literature. A taxonomy of activation and output fu...

The choice of transfer functions may strongly influence complexity and performance of neural networks used in classification and approximation tasks. A taxonomy of activation and output functions is proposed, allowing to generate many transfer functions. Several less-known types of transfer functions and new combinations of activation/output functions are described. Functions parameterize to ch...

The paper is organized as follows. The definition of jitter transfer and its relevance to high-speed standards is first presented. We then describe the measurement concept used in this paper and construct a very simple Introspect ESP Test Procedure for the automatic collection of PLL jitter transfer functions and loop bandwidth parameters. We then describe advanced topics related to min-max VCO...

This paper describes the interpolation of head related transfer functions (HRTFs) for all directions. The interpolation of HRTFs enables us to reduce the number of measurements for new user’s HRTFs, and also reduce the data of HRTFs in auditory virtual systems. A linear interpolation and the spline interpolation are evaluated and the advantages of both methods are clarified. The interpolation m...

Head Related Transfer Functions (HRTF’s) characterize the transformation of a sound source to the sounds reaching the eardrums, and are central to binaural hearing. Because they are the result of wave propagation and difiraction, they can only be approzimated by finitely parameterized filters. The functional dependence of the HRTF on azimuth und elevation is described, the requirements for a mo...

We study unconditionally secure 1-out-of-2 Oblivious Transfer (1-2 OT). We first point out that a standard security requirement for 1-2 OT of bits, namely that the receiver only learns one of the bits sent, holds if and only if the receiver has no information on the XOR of the two bits. We then generalize this to 1-2 OT of strings and show that the security can be characterized in terms of bina...
