Revealing the canalizing structure of Boolean functions: Algorithms and applications [PDF]

Automatica, 146 (2022), 2021
Boolean functions can be represented in many ways including logical forms, truth tables, and polynomials. Additionally, Boolean functions have different canonical representations such as minimal disjunctive normal forms. Other canonical representation is based on the polynomial representation of Boolean functions where they can be written as a nested ...

Canals in Milky Way radio polarization maps [PDF]

Mon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc.Lett. 371 (2006) L21-L25, 2006
Narrow depolarized canals are common in maps of the polarized synchrotron emission of the Milky Way. Two physical effects that can produce these canals have been identified: the presence of Faraday rotation measure ($\RM$) gradients in a foreground screen and the cumulative cancellation of polarization known as differential Faraday rotation.

Geometric Characterizations of Canal Hypersurfaces in Euclidean Spaces [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
In the present paper, firstly we obtain the general expression of canal hypersurfaces in Euclidean n-space and deal with canal hypersurfaces in Euclidean 4-space E4. We compute Gauss map, Gaussian curvature and mean curvature of canal hypersurfaces in E4 and obtain an important relation between the mean and Gaussian curvatures as 3Hrho = Krho^3-2.

The number and probability of canalizing functions [PDF]

, 2003
Canalizing functions have important applications in physics and biology. For example, they represent a mechanism capable of stabilizing chaotic behavior in Boolean network models of discrete dynamical systems. When comparing the class of canalizing functions to other classes of functions with respect to their evolutionary plausibility as emergent ...

An Ear Canal Deformation Based User Authentication Using Ear Wearable Devices [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Biometric-based authentication is gaining increasing attention for wearables and mobile applications. Meanwhile, the growing adoption of sensors in wearables also provides opportunities to capture novel wearable biometrics. In this work, we propose EarDynamic, an ear canal deformation-based user authentication using in-ear wearables.

Faraday ghosts: depolarization canals in the Galactic radio emission [PDF]

Mon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc. 345 (2003) 1392, 2003
Narrow, elongated regions of very low polarized intensity -- so-called canals -- have recently been observed by several authors at decimeter wavelengths in various directions in the Milky Way, but their origin remains enigmatic. We show that the canals arise from depolarization by differential Faraday rotation in the interstellar medium and that they ...

Average sensitivity of nested canalizing multivalued functions [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
The canalizing properties of biological functions have been mainly studied in the context of Boolean modelling of gene regulatory networks. An important mathematical consequence of canalization is a low average sensitivity, which ensures in particular the expected robustness to noise.

Nonlinear Model Predictive Control with Obstacle Avoidance Constraints for Autonomous Navigation in a Canal Environment [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
In this paper, we describe the development process of autonomous navigation capabilities of a small cruise boat operating in a canal environment and present the results of a field experiment conducted in the Pohang Canal, South Korea. Nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) was used for the online trajectory planning and tracking control of the ...

Teeth And Root Canals Segmentation Using ZXYFormer With Uncertainty Guidance And Weight Transfer [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
This study attempts to segment teeth and root-canals simultaneously from CBCT images, but there are very challenging problems in this process. First, the clinical CBCT image data is very large (e.g., 672 *688 * 688), and the use of downsampling operation will lose useful information about teeth and root canals.

A Structured Optimal Controller for Irrigation Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
In this paper, we apply an optimal LQ controller, which has an inherent structure that allows for a distributed implementation, to an irrigation network. The network consists of a water reservoir and connected water canals. The goal is to keep the levels close to the set-points when farmers take out water.
