(C1) The output should contain only those NxN patterns of pixels that are present in the input. (Weak C2) Distribution of NxN patterns in the input should be similar to the distribution of NxN ...

Digital electronics is the branch of electronics that deals with the representation and manipulation of data in digital form. It involves the use of devices such as transistors, diodes, and ...

Abstract: Allowing cycles in a logic circuit can be advantageous, for example, by reducing the number of gates required to implement a given Boolean function, or a set of functions. However, a cyclic ...

Ladder logic uses switch or relay contacts to implement Boolean expressions. In years past, ladder logic was made possible with discrete relays and was sometimes termed “relay logic.” Today most ...

It is a well-known story that theoretical computer science and biology have been drawing inspiration from each other for decades. While computer science has tried to mimic the functioning of living ...

Artificial neural networks are becoming an integral part of digital solutions to complex problems. However, employing neural networks on quantum processors faces challenges related to the ...

Abstract: We consider the problem of checking the generalized affine equivalence of two given Boolean functions. This problem arises in various computer-aided design (CAD) and cryptographic ...

Random Forests (RFs) are among the most successful machine-learning algorithms in terms of prediction accuracy. In many domain problems, however, the primary goal is not prediction, but to understand ...

Astrocytes are non-neuronal cells that regulate synapses, neuronal circuits, and behavior. Astrocytes ensheath neuronal synapses to form the tripartite synapse where astrocytes influence synapse ...
