This thesis analyses three distinct aspects of the economics of water distribution in Switzerland. Climate change and mounting pressure regarding the performance of network industries command an understanding of the drivers of cost and efficiency of water ...
This paper examines the financial consequences that inventory leanness has on firm performance. We conduct an econometric analysis using 4324 publicly traded US manufacturing companies for the period 1980-2008. Using an instrumental variable fixed effects ...
We propose a novel Continuation Multi Level Monte Carlo (CMLMC) algorithm for weak approximation of stochastic models that are described in terms of differential equations either driven by random measures or with random coefficients. The CMLMC algorithm so ...
The two central topics of information theory are the compression and the transmission of data. Shannon, in his seminal work, formalized both these problems and determined their fundamental limits. Since then the main goal of coding theory has been to find ...
Shannon in his seminal work \cite{paper:shannon} formalized the framework on the problem of digital communication of information and storage. He quantified the fundamental limits of compression and transmission rates. The quantity \textit{channel capacity} ...
For a given family of spatially coupled codes, we prove that the linear programming (LP) threshold on the binary-symmetric channel (BSC) of the tail-biting graph cover ensemble is the same as the LP threshold on the BSC of the derived spatially coupled ens ...
Balanced bipolar codes consist of sequences in which the symbols ‘−1’ and ‘+1’ appear equally often. Several generalizations to larger alphabets have been considered in literature. For example, for the q-ary alphabet {−q+1,−q+3, . . . , q−1}, known concept ...
Spatial filtering is the fundamental characteristic of microphone array based signal acquisition which plays an important role in applications such as speech enhancement and distant speech recognition. In the array processing literature, this property is f ...
We introduce irregular product codes, a class of codes where each codeword is represented by a matrix and the entries in each row (column) of the matrix come from a component row (column) code. As opposed to standard product codes, we do not require that a ...
In this study, the authors consider the class of anti-uniform Huffman (AUH) codes. The authors derived tight lower and upper bounds on the average codeword length, entropy and redundancy of finite and infinite AUH codes in terms of the alphabet size of the ...
