As shown by Médard, the capacity of fading channels with imperfect channel-state information can be lower-bounded by assuming a Gaussian channel input X with power P and by upper-bounding the conditional entropy h(X|Y,H) ...

El ecosistema urbano se puede modelar como un sistema disipativo de carácter complejo, cuyo pronóstico está regido por una cierta incertidumbre. Haciendo una aproximación al concepto de ciudad desde la estadística es posible ...

Automatic computation of best views of objects are very useful. For example, they can be used as the starting point of a scene exploration, or to enrich galleries of objects available through Internet by adding an image a ...

A non-data-aided SNR estimation of a communication channel is addressed in this paper. The main contribution relies on the relationship between an entropy measure of a given constellation and the link quality. The main ...

Entropy is a fundamental property of a repertoire. Here, we present an efficient algorithm to estimate the entropy of types with the help of Zhang’s estimator. The algorithm takes advantage of the fact that the number of ...

The theory of Shannon entropy was applied to the Choi-Williams time-frequency distribution (CWD) of time series in order to extract entropy information in both time and frequency domains. In this way, four novel indexes ...

In this paper a new framework for the study of measures of dispersion for a class of $n$-dimensional lists is proposed. The concept of monotonicity with respect to a "sharpened"-type order is introduced. This type of ...

A new outlier-robust approach to estimate the magnitude squared coherence of a random vector sequence, a common task required in a variety of estimation and detection problems, is proposed. The proposed estimator is based ...
