Time-frequency analysis using NVIDIA compute unified device architecture (CUDA)

Abstract: The Digital Signal Processing (DSP) requires high computing power. Von Neuman architecture reaches it's limits. To meet the high requirement of DSP algorithms the parallel processing techniques are being used. The paper presents an example of DSP application on NVIDIA graphic card using CUDA environment. The presented result shows the high effectiveness of multi-core graphical card in Digital Signal Processing. The processing time of the example spectrogram is reduced 10 times compared to Central Processing Unit (CPU) of the standard PC

Measurements of properties of the Higgs boson decaying into the four-lepton final state in pp collisions at √s=13 TeV

Abstract: Properties of the Higgs boson are measured in the H → ZZ → 4l (l = e, μ) decay channel. A data sample of proton-proton collisions at $ \sqrt{s}=13 $ TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{−1}$ is used. The signal strength modifier μ, defined as the ratio of the observed Higgs boson rate in the H → ZZ → 4l decay channel to the standard model expectation, is measured to be μ = 1.05$_{− 0.17}^{+ 0.19}$ at m$_{H}$ = 125.09 GeV, the combined ATLAS and CMS measurement of the Higgs boson mass. The signal strength modifiers for the individual Higgs boson production modes are also measured. The cross section in the fiducial phase space defined by the requirements on lepton kinematics and event topology is measured to be 2. 92$_{− 0.44}^{+ 0.48}$ (stat)$_{− 0.24}^{+ 0.28}$ (syst)fb, which is compatible with the standard model prediction of 2.76 ± 0.14 fb. Differential cross sections are reported as a function of the transverse momentum of the Higgs boson, the number of associated jets, and the transverse momentum of the leading associated jet. The Higgs boson mass is measured to be m$_{H}$ = 125.26 ± 0.21 GeV and the width is constrained using the on-shell invariant mass distribution to be Γ$_{H}$ < 1.10 GeV, at 95% confidence level.

Ultrahigh Surface Area Zirconium MOFs and Insights into the Applicability of the BET Theory

Abstract: An isoreticular series of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with the ftw topology based on zirconium oxoclusters and tetracarboxylate linkers with a planar core (NU-1101 through NU-1104) has been synthesized employing a linker expansion approach. In this series, NU-1103 has a pore volume of 2.91 cc g–1 and a geometrically calculated surface area of 5646 m2 g–1, which is the highest value reported to date for a zirconium-based MOF and among the largest that have been reported for any porous material. Successful activation of the MOFs was proven based on the agreement of pore volumes and BET areas obtained from simulated and experimental isotherms. Critical for practical applications, NU-1103 combines for the first time ultrahigh surface area and water stability, where this material retained complete structural integrity after soaking in water. Pressure range selection for the BET calculations on these materials was guided by the four so-called “consistency criteria”. The experimental BET area of NU-1103 was ...

Fractional Kalman filter algorithm for the states, parameters and order of fractional system estimation

Abstract: This paper presents a generalization of the Kalman filter for linear and nonlinear fractional order discrete state-space systems. Linear and nonlinear discrete fractional order state-space systems are also introduced. The simplified kalman filter for the linear case is called the fractional Kalman filter and its nonlinear extension is named the extended fractional Kalman filter. The background and motivations for using such techniques are given, and some algorithms are discussed. The paper also shows a simple numerical example of linear state estimation. Finally, as an example of nonlinear estimation, the paper discusses the possibility of using these algorithms for parameters and fractional order estimation for fractional order systems. Numerical examples of the use of these algorithms in a general nonlinear case are presented.
