In this work, new analytical expressions are derived for the number-average (Xn), weight-average (Xw) degree of polymerization, and polydispersity (Đ) of trifunctional branched polymers through ...

How trustworthy is a positive HIV test result? How probable is an actual infection when the test is positive? Even professionals often get such questions wrong, which can lead to misdiagnoses and ...

Some of the revelation from the data generated from this qualitative study on why learners committed errors in presenting and writing mathematics symbols is as a result of being ill equipped in the ...

This fact is with contradistinction to sparse system (i.e. energy distribution in gas) in which the average value has the highest probability. Here we show that when we postulate the requirement that ...

The results are corroborated with simulation and compared with the conventional uniformly distributed input symbols. In all channel conditions, PS results in significant reductions in the SNR required ...

This study proposes a measurement error estimation method for distributed smart meters based on a modified BP neural network. First, the relationship model between the metering correction coefficient, ...

A uniform distribution is a probability distribution where all outcomes are equally likely. Due to its limited and unique values, a die exhibits uniform distribution.

We investigate, both numerically and experimentally, the usefulness of a distributed non-linearity in a passive coherent photonic reservoir computer. This computing system is based on a passive ...

Computing the probability of symbol error for two-dimensional (2-D) signal constellations where the decision regions have arbitrary shapes is cumbersome as it i ...
