Optimal Parameter Extraction Scheme of Current Sources and Bias Dependent Elements for HBT by searching the whole unknown Parameter Space
New analytical expressions for the dynamic resistance,transconductance,base-collector internal capacitance,and base-emitter internal capacitance are derived.And a new scheme,to extract the current source parameters,thermal parameter,and small signal parameters at multiple bias points on the normal active region,is developed.The proposed parameter extraction method is robust and very fast.Based on these equations, we propose a new scheme to find out the optimal solution by searching for a full-unknown parameter space.The search space corresponds to 1.17x10 8 points on the error surface, and it takes 12.6 hours to get an optimal model parameters using a 2GHz-desktop PC.This scheme is helpful for the modeling of HBT excluding the local minimum problem in the gradient optimization method and the inaccuracies in the direct extraction method

The timing of disability insurance application: a choice-based semiparametric hazard model
We use a choice-based subsample of Social Security Disability Insurance applicants from the 1978 Social Security Survey of Disability and Work to test the importance of policy variables on the timing of application for disability insurance benefits following the onset of a work limiting health condition. We correct for choice-based sampling by extending the Manski-Lerman (1977) correction to the likelihood function of our continuous time hazard model defined with semiparametric unmeasured heterogeneity and find that this correction significantly affects the results. We find that economic variables-the size of the disability benefit, expected wage earnings and accommodation-matter.Insurance ; Social security
Constraint on teleportation over multipartite pure states
We first define a quantity exhibiting the usefulness of bipartite quantum
states for teleportation, called the quantum teleportation capability, and then
investigate its restricted shareability in multi-party quantum systems. In this
work, we verify that the quantum teleportation capability has a monogamous
property in its shareability for arbitrary three-qutrit pure states by
employing the monogamy inequality in terms of the negativity.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur

Reduction of critical temperatures in pure and thoriated UBe13 by columnar defects
We investigate the influence of columnar defects on the superconducting
transition temperatures of pure and thoriated UBe13. The defects cause all the
transitions to widen and to drop slightly in temperature. Quantitatively, the
single UBe13 transition resembles the lower transition in a sample with 3%
thorium more closely than the upper thoriated transition.Comment: 3 pages, 1 figure. To be presented at M2S-HTSC-V
Single image example-based super-resolution using cross-scale patch matching and Markov random field modelling
Example-based super-resolution has become increasingly popular over the last few years for its ability to overcome the limitations of classical multi-frame approach. In this paper we present a new example-based method that uses the input low-resolution image itself as a search space for high-resolution patches by exploiting self-similarity across different resolution scales. Found examples are combined in a high-resolution image by the means of Markov Random Field modelling that forces their global agreement. Additionally, we apply back-projection and steering kernel regression as post-processing techniques. In this way, we are able to produce sharp and artefact-free results that are comparable or better than standard interpolation and state-of-the-art super-resolution techniques
Adaptive Detection of Instabilities: An Experimental Feasibility Study
We present an example of the practical implementation of a protocol for
experimental bifurcation detection based on on-line identification and feedback
control ideas. The idea is to couple the experiment with an on-line
computer-assisted identification/feedback protocol so that the closed-loop
system will converge to the open-loop bifurcation points. We demonstrate the
applicability of this instability detection method by real-time,
computer-assisted detection of period doubling bifurcations of an electronic
circuit; the circuit implements an analog realization of the Roessler system.
The method succeeds in locating the bifurcation points even in the presence of
modest experimental uncertainties, noise and limited resolution. The results
presented here include bifurcation detection experiments that rely on
measurements of a single state variable and delay-based phase space
reconstruction, as well as an example of tracing entire segments of a
codimension-1 bifurcation boundary in two parameter space.Comment: 29 pages, Latex 2.09, 10 figures in encapsulated postscript format
