We propose a new graph representation for ISI channels that can be used for combined equalization and decoding by linear programming (LP) or iterative message-passing (IMP) decodi...
In many real-world applications, data cannot be accurately represented by vectors. In those situations, one possible solution is to rely on dissimilarity measures that enable a se...
We consider the problem of Adverse Selection and optimal derivative design within a Principal-Agent framework. The principal’s income is exposed to non-hedgeable risk factors ar...
—The concept of ‘manipulability’ is particularly important to characterize the ability of a serial kinematic chain – artificial manipulator or natural limb – to move quic...
The vulnerability of computer nodes due to component failures is a critical issue for cluster-based file systems. This paper studies the development and deployment of mirroring in...
