In our digital and social media themed month, Rodica Ceslov highlights how pharma is exploring the use of QR codes in its packaging. The pharmaceutical industry is hoping for the same remarkable ...
Abstract: We apply the innovations method to Viterbi decoding of convolutional codes. First, we calculate the covariance matrix of the innovation (i.e., the soft-decision input to the main decoder in ...
2D irregular packing is a classic combinatorial optimization problem with various applications, such as material utilization and texture atlas generation. Due to its NP-hard nature, conventional ...
