A random variable dominates another random variable with respect to the covariance order if the covariance of any two monotone increas- ing functions of this variable is smaller. We characterize completely the covariance order, give strong sufficient conditi ...
We consider multiple description (MD) coding for the Gaussian source with K descriptions under the symmetric mean-squared error (MSE) distortion constraints, and provide an approximate characterization of the rate region. We show that the rate region can b ...
Satellites and ground-based stations have recorded various types of data from the solar-terrestrial system during recent decades. The new type of particle detectors in SEVAN (Space Environmental Viewing and Analysis Network) project will be able to measure ...
We solve for the equilibrium dynamics of Information sharing in a large population Each agent is endowed with signals regarding the likely outcome of a random variable of common concern Individuals choose the effort with which they search for others from w ...
Claude Elwood Shannon in 1948, then of the Bell Labs, published one of the ground breaking papers in the history of engineering [1]. This paper (”A Mathematical Theory of Communication”, Bell System Tech. Journal, Vol. 27, July and October 1948, pp. 379 - ...
For the development, design and licensing of a nuclear power plant (NPP), a sound safety analysis is necessary to study the diverse physical phenomena involved in the system behaviour under a wide range of operational and transient conditions. Such studies ...
This paper studies the price of an asset depending on both a fundamental and possible interventions of an authority. Using the martingale approach in continuous time, we provide closed-form solutions to switching problems involving irreversible, state depe ...
This paper presents a new paradigm for choice set generation in the context of route choice model estimation. We assume that the choice sets contain all paths connecting each origin-destination pair. Although this is behaviorally questionable, we make this ...
The use of numerical procedure at a level never reach so far in optical imaging enables DHM to overcome two cumbersome alignment procedures of interferometric microscopes: (1) fine focus of the sample, and (2) sample tilt adjustment. In addition the techno ...
The invention concerns an optical imaging apparatus comprising a light source, sample holding means, an interferometer, reference means, an objective which is adapted to have its sample side focal plane crossing a sample held in said sample holding mea ...
