Taming WOLF: Building a More Functional and User-Friendly Framework
(2019-06-12)Machine learning is all about automation. Many tools have been created to help data scientists automate repeated tasks and train models. These tools require varying levels of user experience to be used effectively. The ... -
Introduction to Communication Systems: An Interactive Approach Using the Wolfram Language
(University of Kansas Libraries, 2021-07-20)This ebook provides a unique pedagogical approach to teaching the fundamentals of communication systems using interactive graphics and in-line questions. The material opens with describing the transformation of bits into ... -
Machine Learning for Aerospace Applications using the Blackbird Dataset
(2021-07-09)There is currently much interest in using machine learning (ML) models for vision-based object detection and navigation tasks in autonomous vehicles. For unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and particularly small multi-rotor ... -
Practical and Secure Outsourcing Algorithms of Matrix Operations Based on a Novel Matrix Encryption Method
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-04-26)With the recent growth and commercialization of cloud computing, outsourcing computation has become one of the most important cloud services, which allows the resource-constrained clients to efficiently perform large-scale ... -
Partial type constructors: Or, making ad hoc datatypes less ad hoc
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2020-01)Functional programming languages assume that type constructors are total. Yet functional programmers know better: counterexamples range from container types that make limiting assumptions about their contents (e.g., requiring ... -
Exceptional asynchronous session types: Session types without tiers
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2019-01)Session types statically guarantee that communication complies with a protocol. However, most accounts of session typing do not account for failure, which means they are of limited use in real applications---especially ... -
Abstracting extensible data types: Or, rows by any other name
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2019-01)We present a novel typed language for extensible data types, generalizing and abstracting existing systems of row types and row polymorphism. Extensible data types are a powerful addition to traditional functional programming ... -
Identification of the Bacterial Biosynthetic Gene Clusters of the Oral Microbiome Illuminates the Unexplored Social Language of Bacteria during Health and Disease
(American Society for Microbiology, 2019-04-16)Small molecules are the primary communication media of the microbial world. Recent bioinformatic studies, exploring the biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) which produce many small molecules, have highlighted the incredible ... -
Accurate and Efficient Mapping of the Cross-Linked microRNA-mRNA Duplex Reads
(Cell Press, 2019-05-28)MicroRNA (miRNA) trans-regulates the stability of many mRNAs and controls their expression levels. Reconstruction of the miRNA-mRNA interactome is key to the understanding of the miRNA regulatory network and related ... -
Dimension Reduction Using Quantum Wavelet Transform on a High-Performance Reconfigurable Computer
(Hindawi, 2019-11-11)The high resolution of multidimensional space-time measurements and enormity of data readout counts in applications such as particle tracking in high-energy physics (HEP) is becoming nowadays a major challenge. In this ... -
QD-MLL-Based Single-Sideband Superchannel Generation Scheme With Kramers–Kronig Direct Detection Receivers
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-07-23)For their capability of electronic dispersion compensation, transmission systems based on direct detection of single-sideband (SSB) signals are attractive candidates as energy-efficient and cost-effective alternative ... -
Cost-Efficient Millimeter Wave Base Station Deployment in Manhattan-Type Geometry
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-10-15)Urban millimeter wave (mmWave) communications are limited by link outage due to frequent blockages by obstacles. One approach to this problem is to increase the density of base stations (BSs) to achieve macro diversity ... -
Task-Oriented Active Sensing via Action Entropy Minimization
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-09-16)In active sensing, sensing actions are typically chosen to minimize the uncertainty of the state according to some information-theoretic measure such as entropy, conditional entropy, mutual information, etc. This is ... -
Femtosecond Pulse Temporal Overlap Estimation and Adjustment in SSFS-Based CARS System
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-09-10)We present and verify a residual-pump-based temporal overlap estimation method in soliton self-frequency shift-based coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering system. The residual pump light, output by a highly nonlinear ... -
Dictionary Representation of Deep Features for Occlusion-Robust Face Recognition
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-02-25)Deep learning has achieved exciting results in face recognition; however, the accuracy is still unsatisfying for occluded faces. To improve the robustness for occluded faces, this paper proposes a novel deep dictionary ... -
