A standard result known as Chebychev's inequality asserts that any two non-decreasing functions of a real random variable have non-negative correlation.
Knockout tournaments are often used in sports (or experiments where- preferences are registered by comparisons instead of measurements) to determine the champion of an event.
Several results are presented in Ref.
This letter presents a method to find convolutional codes with good translation properties by modifying the generator matrix of existing Codes and using a bit modifier.
We concentrate on those problems that we believe have shown, or will prove, to be useful quantitative paradigms of nonlinear systems.
Against the continuum of the low-frequency ambient sea noise that is due to ships and weather, there appear a variety of 'strange' noises, usually transient in nature.
N a modern communication system the leakance is generally quite small and can be neglected in making propagation computations.
A method has been developed for the measurement of the electrical properties of metal-loaded polystyrene foam artificial dielectrics in the hundred-megacycle frequency range, by the use of a number
T IS an inherent feature of the two-way television system that either user is continuously scanned as he views the image from the distant station.
Some periodic time-varying convolutional codes with free distance greater than the best known time-invariant code of the same rate and total encoder memory are presented.
