On Distributed Computation in Noisy Random Planar Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We consider distributed computation of functions of distributed data in random planar networks with noisy wireless links. We present a new algorithm for computation of the maximum value which is order optimal in the number of transmissions and ...

Distinct lateral inhibitory circuits drive parallel processing of sensory information in the mammalian olfactory bulb

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Splitting sensory information into parallel pathways is a common strategy in sensory systems. Yet, how circuits in these parallel pathways are composed to maintain or even enhance the encoding of specific stimulus features is poorly understood.

Self-Healing Computation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the problem of reliable multiparty computation (RC), there are $n$ parties, each with an individual input, and the parties want to jointly compute a function $f$ over $n$ inputs.

Topological Quantum Computation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The theory of quantum computation can be constructed from the abstract study of anyonic systems. In mathematical terms, these are unitary topological modular functors. They underlie the Jones polynomial and arise in Witten-Chern-Simons theory.

Elementary sensory-motor transformations underlying olfactory navigation in walking fruit-flies

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Odor attraction in walking Drosophila melanogaster is commonly used to relate neural function to behavior, but the algorithms underlying attraction are unclear.

Optical Computing [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Mathematics and Computation, 2009
In this survey we consider optical computers that encode data using images and compute by transforming such images. We give an overview of a number of such optical computing architectures, including descriptions of the type of hardware commonly used in optical computing, as well as some of the computational efficiencies of optical devices.

Computing Offloading and Semantic Compression for Intelligent Computing Tasks in MEC Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
This paper investigates the intelligent computing task-oriented computing offloading and semantic compression in mobile edge computing (MEC) systems. With the popularity of intelligent applications in various industries, terminals increasingly need to offload intelligent computing tasks with complex demands to MEC servers for computing, which is a ...

Counterfactual Computation

open access: yes, 1999
Suppose that we are given a quantum computer programmed ready to perform a computation if it is switched on. Counterfactual computation is a process by which the result of the computation may be learnt without actually running the computer.

The Cognitive Basis of Computation: Putting Computation in Its Place [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The mainstream view in cognitive science is that computation lies at the basis of and explains cognition. Our analysis reveals that there is no compelling evidence or argument for thinking that brains compute.

KLM quantum computation as a measurement based computation

open access: yes, 2006
We show that the Knill Laflamme Milburn method of quantum computation with linear optics gates can be interpreted as a one-way, measurement based quantum computation of the type introduced by Briegel and Rausendorf.
