Multichannel Generalization of Kitaev’s Majorana End States and a Practical Route to Realize Them in Thin Films
(American Physical Society, 2010-11)The ends of one-dimensional p+ip superconductors have long been predicted to possess localized Majorana fermion modes [A. Kitaev, arXiv:cond-mat/0010440]. We show that Majorana end states are robust beyond the strict 1D ... -
Multiclass learning with simplex coding
(Neural Information Processing Systems Foundation, 2012-09)In this paper we discuss a novel framework for multiclass learning, defined by a suitable coding/decoding strategy, namely the simplex coding, that allows us to generalize to multiple classes a relaxation approach commonly ... -
Multiclass multiserver queueing system in the Halfin-Whitt heavy traffic regime: asymptotics of the stationary distribution
(Springer-Verlag, 2012-04)We consider a heterogeneous queueing system consisting of one large pool of O(r) identical servers, where r→∞ is the scaling parameter. The arriving customers belong to one of several classes which determines the service ... -
Multicoil2: predicting coiled coils and their oligomerization States from sequence in the twilight zone
(Public Library of Science, 2011-08)The alpha-helical coiled coil can adopt a variety of topologies, among the most common of which are parallel and antiparallel dimers and trimers. We present Multicoil2, an algorithm that predicts both the location and ... -
Multicolored silver nanoparticles for multiplexed disease diagnostics: distinguishing dengue, yellow fever, and Ebola viruses
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-02)Rapid point-of-care (POC) diagnostic devices are needed for field-forward screening of severe acute systemic febrile illnesses. Multiplexed rapid lateral flow diagnostics have the potential to distinguish among multiple ... -
Multicomponent Fickian solution-diffusion model for osmotic transport through membranes
(Elsevier BV, 2021-12)Osmotically-assisted membrane processes (OAMP) are separation technologies that leverage osmotic gradients to recover water from brine. Accurate modeling of the solute-coupling effects for transmembrane transport is integral ... -
Multicomponent Gas Diffusion in Porous Electrodes
(Electrochemical Society, 2015-03)Multicomponent gas transport is investigated with unprecedented precision by AC impedance analysis of porous YSZ anode-supported solid oxide fuel cells. A fuel gas mixture of H[subscript 2]-H[subscript 2]O-N[subscript 2] ... -
Multicore Paging Algorithms Cannot Be Competitive

A Multicore Path to Connectomics-on-Demand
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2017-02)The current design trend in large scale machine learning is to use distributed clusters of CPUs and GPUs with MapReduce-style programming. Some have been led to believe that this type of horizontal scaling can reduce or ... -
Multicore Processing and Efficient On-Chip Caching for H.264 and Future Video Decoders
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-10)Performance requirements for video decoding will continue to rise in the future due to the adoption of higher resolutions and faster frame rates. Multicore processing is an effective way to handle the resulting increase ... -
Multicore Software Technologies
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-10)Multicore architectures require parallel computation and explicit management of the memory hierarchy, both of which add programming complexity and are unfamiliar to most programmers. While MPI and OpenMP still have a place ... -
Multicritical points and crossover mediating the strong violation of universality: Wang-Landau determinations in the random-bond d=2 Blume-Capel model
(American Physical Society, 2010-04)The effects of bond randomness on the phase diagram and critical behavior of the square lattice ferromagnetic Blume-Capel model are discussed. The system is studied in both the pure and disordered versions by the same ... -
Multidiameter optical ring and Hermite–Gaussian vortices for wavelength division multiplexing–mode division multiplexing
(SPIE, 2016-10)Optical vortices are high-capacity data carriers for mode division multiplexing (MDM) in multimode fiber (MMF). This paper reports on the MDM of a combination of helical-phased optical vortices comprising donut modes and ... -
