Many engineers have likely heard terms like "high variability" or "low process capability" on the shop floor without fully grasping them beyond a vague, intuitive sense. While statistics may seem ...

Abstract: The estimation of laser linewidth or phase noise variance is of great significance for the applications including coherent optical communications, optical fiber sensing, quantum optics, etc.

Abstract: Accurate estimation of the states of a nonlinear dynamical system is crucial for their design, synthesis, and analysis. Particle filters are estimators constructed by simulating trajectories ...
