Modern wireless communication systems demanding high data rate operating in bandwidth deficient world is using Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna arrangement. MIMO arrangement helping achieving high data rates with a technique of special multiplexing saves bandwidth but needs efficient receivers with manageable hardware. The receivers employing linear equalizers or Decision Feedback ...

Chunks (or phrases) once played a pivotal role in machine translation. By using a chunk rather than a word as the basic translation unit, local (intrachunk) and global (inter-chunk) word orders and dependencies can be easily modeled. The chunk structure, despite its importance, has not been considered in the decoders used for neural machine translation (NMT). In this paper, we propose chunk-bas...

Distributed video coding (DVC) is a new compression paradigm based on two key Information Theory results: the Slepian-Wolf and Wyner-Ziv theorems. A particular case of DVC deals with lossy source coding with side information at the decoder (Wyner-Ziv) and enables to shift the coding complexity from the encoder to the decoder. The solution here described is based on a very lightweight encoder le...

The performance of decoder-based evolutionary algorithms (EAs) strongly depends on the locality of the used decoder and operators. While many approaches to characterize locality are based on the fitness landscape, we emphasize the explicit relation between genotypes and phenotypes. Statistical measures are demonstrated to reliably predict locality properties of selected decoder-based EAs for th...

Neural encoder-decoder models have shown great success in many sequence generation tasks. However, previous work has not investigated situations in which we would like to control the length of encoder-decoder outputs. This capability is crucial for applications such as text summarization, in which we have to generate concise summaries with a desired length. In this paper, we propose methods for...

In this paper, we present reliability analysis and comparison between on-chip communication architectures: dominant shared-bus AMBA and emerging network-on-chip (NoC); in the presence of single-event upsets (SEUs) using MPEG-2 video decoder as a case study. Employing SystemCbased fault simulations, reliability of the decoders is studied in terms of SEUs experienced in the computation cores and ...
