'Thomas J. Davidson' 'Rahul Sarpeshkar' 'Michal Zochowski'] The ability to decode neural activity into meaningful control signals for prosthetic devices is critical to the development of clinically useful brain- machine interfaces (BMIs). Such systems require input from tens to hundreds of brain-implanted recording…

'Karthikeyan Lingasubramanian' 'Senthil Murugan' 'Miriam Leeser'] Integrated circuits may be vulnerable to hardware Trojan attacks during its design or fabrication phases. This article is a case study of the design of a Viterbi decoder and the effect of hardware Trojans on a coded communication system employing the…

'Tianlong Zhao' 'Yintang Yang' 'Yanbo Zhao' 'Xin Zhang' 'Parsian K. Mohseni'] Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology has been applied in many fields, such as radar and indoor positioning, because of its advantages of having a high transmission rate, anti-multipath interference, and good concealment. In the UWB physical layer…

The conception of universal combinatorial coding is proposed. Relations exist more or less in many coding methods. It means that a kind of universal coding method is objectively existent. It can be a bridge connecting many coding methods. Universal combinatorial coding is lossless and it is based on the combinatorics…

'Aleksejs Udalcovs' 'Lilita Gegere' 'Aleksandr Krotov' 'Oskars Ozolins' 'Vjaceslavs Bobrovs' 'Song-Nam Hong' 'T. Aaron Gulliver'] Forward error correction (FEC) codes combined with high-order modulator formats, i.e., coded modulation (CM), are essential in optical communication networks to achieve highly efficient and…

Background Barcode multiplexing is a key strategy for sharing the rising capacity of next-generation sequencing devices: Synthetic DNA tags, called barcodes, are attached to natural DNA fragments within the library preparation procedure. Different libraries, can individually be labeled with barcodes for a joint…

This paper presents a universal GNSS receiver channel capable of tracking any civil GNSS signal. This fundamentally differs from dedicated channels, each customized for a given signal. A mobile device could integrate fewer universal channels to harvest all available signals. This would allow securing signal…

Since its introduction, multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA), or ‘neural decoding’, has transformed the field of cognitive neuroscience. Underlying its influence is a crucial inference, which we call the decoder’s dictum: if information can be decoded from patterns of neural activity, then this provides strong evidence…

Unsourced random access (URA) has emerged as a pragmatic framework for next-generation distributed sensor networks. Within URA, concatenated coding structures are often employed to ensure that the central base station can accurately recover the set of sent codewords during a given transmission period. Many URA…

Convolutional codes are comprehensively used as Forward Error Correction (FEC) codes in digital communication systems. For decoding of convolutional codes at the receiver end, Viterbi decoder is often used to have high priority. This decoder meets the demand of high speed and low power. At present, the design of a…

'Roderick Murray-Smith' 'Wai Ho Mow'] Input devices such as motor-imagery brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are often unreliable. In theory, channel coding can be used in the human-machine loop to robustly encapsulate intention through noisy input devices but standard feedforward error correction codes cannot be…

The Language of Thought (LoT) hypothesis proposes that some collections of mental states and processes are symbol systems to explain language-like systematic properties of thought. Recent proponents of this hypothesis point to additional LoT-like properties in non-linguistic domains to claim that LoT remains the “best…

Systematic codes are of important practical interest for communications. Network coding, however, seems to conflict with systematic codes: although the source node can transmit message packets, network coding at the intermediate network nodes may significantly reduce the number of message packets received by the…
