… performance measures of interest are Dmax and Dmin i.e., the largest and smallest inter-frame dot displacement, respectively, for which motion can be reliably detected. Dmax and threshold coherence (i.e., the smallest proportion of dots that must be moved between frames for motion to be …

On the construction, dimensionality, and decoding of linear block code trellises
… that have a smallest minimum distance min (dmin, d⊥min) significantly less than the corresponding Singleton bound can possibly have a compact trellis. For trellises that are impractically large for decoding by the Viterbi algorithm, we consider near-ML decoding using partial searches of a …
