A standard digital camera used in a car for stuff like emergency braking has a perceptual latency of a hair above 20 milliseconds. That’s just the time needed for a camera to transform the photons ...

Abstract: Nonlinear functions are often encountered in power system optimizations. In this paper, an effective piecewise linear (PWL) approximation technique is introduced which shows promising ...

A linear demand curve is a line representing the relationship between the demand for a product or service and its price. Everyone knows that sales are proportional to price: The more you charge for an ...

This paper considers a stochastic shortest path problem where the arc lengths are independent random variables following a normal distribution. In this problem, the optimal path is one that maximizes ...

A recent Design Idea presents a circuit to measure an airflow rate up to 2000 fpm using two transistors in a Darlington configuration. One transistor works as a self-heated thermal sensor and the ...

Linear functions are an important concept for students to understand in math class. They can be represented using tables, graphs or equations. Teachers can use various activities to teach students how ...

Linear and nonlinear functions are the building blocks of algebra. They are essential to the understanding of graphs, equations, and the principles that govern the study of mathematics beyond the ...

Research on quantum cryptography has burgeoned in the recent decades and combined quantum mechanics and cryptography theory. Among the existing quantum cryptographic primitives, quantum obfuscation is ...
