Abstract—It is often claimed that future systems will necessarily be all-optical, because electronic devices are not fast enough to keep up with the increase in fiber capacity. ...
We discuss several complexity measures for Boolean functions: certi cate complexity, sensitivity, block sensitivity, and the degree of a representing or approximating polynomial. ...
In this paper we extend the geometric approach to the theory of evidence in order to include the class of necessity measures, represented on a finite domain of “frame” by con...
In this paper, we presentan approach to clustering images for efficient retrieval using relative entropy. We start with the assumption that visual features are represented by prob...
The causal states of computational mechanics define the minimal sufficient (prescient) memory for a given stationary stochastic process. They induce the -machine which is a hidden...
