Parity-time (PT) symmetric systems based on bal- anced distributions of gain and loss have attracted significant attention in wave physics, enabling the possibility of compen- sating material losses in photonic systems, and of inducing ex- ceptional scatte ...

By using a fully quantum approach based on an input-output formulation of the stochastic Schrodinger equation, we show rectification of radiation fields in a one-dimensional waveguide doped with a pair of ideal two-level systems for three topical cases: cl ...
Neuronal responses to sensory stimuli or neuronal responses related to behaviour are often extracted by averaging neuronal activity over large number of experimental trials. Such trial-averaging is carried out to reduce noise and to diminish the influence ...
CMOS Image Sensors (CIS) overtook the charge coupled devices (CCDs) in low noise performance. Photoelectron counting capability is the next step for CIS for ultimate low light performance and new imaging paradigms. This work presents a review of CMOS image ...
Field Asymmetric IonMobility Spectrometry (FAIMS) is a very promising technique for chemical detection. FAIMS systems are portable, highly sensitive, relatively inexpensive and can work at atmospheric conditions. These attributes make it a very desirable t ...
This paper presents a novel approach to predicting the intrusiveness of background noises in speech signals as it is perceived by human listeners. This problem is of particular interest in telephony, where the recently widened range of transmitted audio fr ...
According to the present invention there is provided a method of sensing comprising the steps of, (a) acquiring plurality of measurement values using a distributed optical fibre sensor; (b) arranging the plurality of measurement values in a matrix having a ...
We present a new algorithm, truncated variance reduction (TruVaR), that treats Bayesian optimization (BO) and level-set estimation (LSE) with Gaussian processes in a unified fashion. The algorithm greedily shrinks a sum of truncated variances within a set ...
Although the concept of determining angular velocity out of the readings of multiple, displaced accelerometers is not new, apparently it has not yet matured into practical technologies. A new generation of low-cost MEMS accelerometers, which is expected to ...
Failure and flow of amorphous materials are central to various phenomena including earthquakes and landslides. There is accumulating evidence that the yielding transition between a flowing and an arrested phase is a critical phenomenon, but the associated ...
