Abstract: A set function associates a real (or complex) value with every subset of a given finite set S. In this paper, we derive a novel discrete signal processing (DSP) framework for such functions.

Eeny, meeny, miny, mo, catch a tiger by the toe – so the rhyme goes. But even children know that counting-out rhymes like this are no help at making a truly random choice. Perhaps you remember when ...

Environment Variables are responsible for storing information about the OS’s environment. Different apps and programs require different configurations and it is the job of Windows to ensure that each ...

The Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) plays a central part in how you use a computer, irrespective of whether you use it for hardcore gaming or just regular tasks. There are two common types of GPUs, ...

Fixed rate electric plans offer convenience, protection and predictability. Variable-rate plans offer flexibility and the potential of savings. Here's how to know which is better for you. Stephen J.

In the real world, probability is a tough thing to characterize. If I roll a die, what does it mean to say that it has a one-sixth chance of coming up 5? We say that the outcome is random because we ...

The benchmark tests show that the noise-free realization of QA can significantly outperform state-of-the-art classical algorithms. Quantum annealing (QA) is a cutting-edge algorithm that leverages the ...
