    • Generalization of entropy based divergence measures for symbolic sequence analysis 

      Ré, Miguel Ángel; Azad, Rajeev K. (2014)
      Entropy based measures have been frequently used in symbolic sequence analysis. A symmetrized and smoothed form of Kullback-Leibler divergence or relative entropy, the Jensen-Shannon divergence (JSD), is of particular ...
    • Generalized multi-terminal decoherent transport: recursive algorithms and applications to SASER and giant magnetoresistance 

      Cattena, Carlos J.; Bustos Marún, Raúl A.; Fernández Alcázar, Lucas J.; Nozaki, Daijiro; Pastawski, Horacio M. (2014)
      Decoherent transport in mesoscopic and nanoscopic systems can be formulated in terms of the D'Amato–Pastawski (DP) model. This generalizes the Landauer–Büttiker picture by considering a distribution of local decoherent ...
    • Geometric approach to extend Landau-Pollak uncertainty relations for positive operator-valued measures 

      Bosyk, Gustavo Martín; Zozor, Steeve; Portesi, Mariela Adelina; Osán, Tristán Martín; Lamberti, Pedro Walter (2014)
      We provide a twofold extension of Landau-Pollak uncertainty relations for mixed quantum states and for positive operator-valued measures, by recourse to geometric considerations. The generalization is based on metrics ...
    • Geometric formulation of the uncertainty principle 

      Bosyk, Gustavo Martín; Osán, Tristán Martín; Lamberti, Pedro Walter; Portesi, Mariela (2014)
      A geometric approach to formulate the uncertainty principle between quantum observables acting on an N-dimensional Hilbert space is proposed. We consider the fidelity between a density operator associated with a quantum ...

      Guidobaldi, Héctor Alejandro; Jeyaram, Y.; Berdakin, Ivan; Moshchalkov, V. V.; Condat, Carlos Alberto; Marconi, Verónica Iris; Giojalas, Laura Cecilia; Silhanek, Alejandro V. (2014)
      The guidance of human sperm cells under confinement in quasi-2D microchambers is investigated using a purely physical method to control their distribution. Transport property measurements and simulations are performed with ...
    • A high performance biometric system based on image morphological analysis 

      Rocchietti, Marco Augusto; Scerbo, Alejandro Luis Ángel; Ojeda, Silvia María (2014)
      At present, many of the algorithms used and proposed for digital imaging biometric systems are based on mathematical complex models, and this fact is directly related to the performance of any computer implementation of ...
    • High resolution, week-long, locomotion time series from Japanese quail in a home-box environment
