Optical phase-modulated fringe-patterns are usually digitized with XxY pixels and 8 bits/pixel (or higher) gray-levels. The digitized 8 bits/pixel are raw-data bits, not Shannon information bits. Here we show that noisy fringe-patterns…

We study the following semi-deterministic setting of the joint source-channel coding problem: a deterministic source sequence (a.k.a. individual sequence) is transmitted via a memoryless channel, using delay-limited encoder and decoder,…
Based on our formulation of the DNA electrophoresis near a pore [P. Rowghanian and A. Y. Grosberg, Phys. Rev. E 87, 042723 (2013)], we address the electrophoretic DNA capture into a nanopore as a steady-state process of particle absorption…
