The slicing process for additive manufacturing (AM) involves many steps, including slicing the object to be printed and fitting toolpaths to each resulting layer. The toolpaths define the trajectories ...

Abstract: Programming is an essential skill in computer science and in a wide range of engineering-related disciplines. However, occurring errors, often referred to as “bugs” in code, can indeed be ...

Abstract: We apply the innovations method to Viterbi decoding of convolutional codes. First, we calculate the covariance matrix of the innovation (i.e., the soft-decision input to the main decoder in ...
