Functional quantization
… compute the function? We introduce the notion of functional quantization and use the tools of high-resolution analysis to get to the bottom of this question. Specifically, we consider real-valued raw data Xn/1 and scalar quantization of each component Xi of this data. First, under the constraints …

Functional signatures
In this thesis, we introduce the notion of functional signatures. In a functional signature scheme, in addition to a master signing key that can be used to sign any message, there are signing keys for a function f, which allow one to sign any message in the range of f. An immediate application of …

Functional Metal Phosphonates
… in this dissertation was the incorporation of functionality into metal phosphonates. This was done in one of several ways. The first involved using phosphonate ligands that had covalently attached organic functional groups. In some cases, these ligands undergo reactions during the solvothermal …

Functional training app
… með framgangi notenda sem eru að fara í gegnum “functional training” í smáforritinu. Það verður notað til að kenna notendum á stoðtæki frá Össuri og auka traust þeirra á stoðtækjunum sem þeir nota. Össur mun vera með réttindin á smáforritinu og getur því seinna meir gefið út smáforrit sem tengir …

Designing functional liquids
… between fundamental physical properties of functional liquids with relevance in industrial applications. Therefore, this work encompassed two strands. The first one was devoted to developing novel and potentially synergistic TOPO-based eutectic extractants. The second one, to unpacking the …

Network functional compression
… thesis, we consider different aspects of the functional compression problem. In functional compression, the computation of a function (or, some functions) of sources is desired at the receiver(s). The rate region of this problem has been considered in the literature under certain restrictive …

Multi-functional polymers from polyamines and functional five-membered cyclic carbonates
… dissertation is concerned with the synthesis of functional polymers prepared by ring-opening reaction of functional five-membered cyclic carbonates with polyamines. The functionality of the polymers defines their properties and their application: multi-functional poly(ethylene imine)s for …

The monophosphaamidine functional group
… in solution that is characteristic tothe amidine functional group. In addition, the nature of the P=C-N system is examined using DFT techniques. Metal complexes of the title compounds with Group 6 metal carbonyls (L-M(CO)5, M=Cr,Mo,W) are also described. A new primary phosphane is reported that …

Adaptive Functional Data Analysis
… thesis, we contribute to adaptive modeling of functional data, focusing on the fundamental aspects of representation and regression, where challenges arise from the infinite-dimensionality of their underlying spaces. For adaptive representation, the notion of mixture inner product spaces (MIPS) …

Partition density functional theory
<p>Partition density functional theory (PDFT) is a method for dividing a molecular electronic structure calculation into fragment calculations. The molecular density and energy corresponding to Kohn Sham density-functional theory (KS-DFT) may be exactly recovered from these fragments. Each fragment …

Functional Reactive Musical Performers
<p> Computers have been assisting in recording, sound synthesis and other fields of music production for quite some time. The actual performance of music continues to be an area in which human players are chosen over computer performers. Musical performance is an area in which personalization is …

Geometric Functional Data Analysis
… for the analysis of statistical samples that are functional data with non-trivial geometry. Geometry can interplay with functional data in different forms. The most general setting considered here is that of functional data supported on random non-linear smooth manifolds. This is a situation often …

Functional Analogies: Hans Keller's Wordless Functional Analysis as a Theory of Musical Comparison
… theory of comparison in the form of “Wordless Functional Analyses,” performable instrumental interludes that point the ear to sounding relationships using music alone. What was his theory, how does it compare to cognitive models of similarity and difference perception that have emerged since …

Functional Dissection of Brainstem Circuitry
… three and a half years, where I have sought to functionally dissect neural circuits of the brainstem. Through the development and application of a number of novel molecular technologies, we have gained critical insight into the molecular and neural basis of behavior. The first part of this work …
