Compressed sensing

David L. Donoho · 1 Apr 2006

Suppose x is an unknown vector in Ropf <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">m</sup> (a digital image or signal); we plan to measure n general linear functionals of x and then reconstruct. If x is known to be compressible by transform coding with a known transform, and we reconstruct via the nonlinear procedure defined here, the number of…

Nearest neighbor pattern classification

Thomas M. Cover, Peter E. Hart · 1 Jan 1967

The nearest neighbor decision rule assigns to an unclassified sample point the classification of the nearest of a set of previously classified points. This rule is independent of the underlying joint distribution on the sample points and their classifications, and hence the probability of error <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">R</tex> of such a rule must be at…

Robust uncertainty principles: exact signal reconstruction from highly incomplete frequency information

Emmanuel J. Candès, Justin Romberg, Terence Tao · 25 Jan 2006

This paper considers the model problem of reconstructing an object from incomplete frequency samples. Consider a discrete-time signal f/spl isin/C/sup N/ and a randomly chosen set of frequencies /spl Omega/. Is it possible to reconstruct f from the partial knowledge of its Fourier coefficients on the set /spl Omega/? A typical result of this paper…

Least squares quantization in PCM

Sheelagh Lloyd · 1 Mar 1982

It has long been realized that in pulse-code modulation (PCM), with a given ensemble of signals to handle, the quantum values should be spaced more closely in the voltage regions where the signal amplitude is more likely to fall. It has been shown by Panter and Dite that, in the limit as the number of…

New directions in cryptography

Whitfield Diffie, Martin E. Hellman · 1 Nov 1976

Two kinds of contemporary developments in cryptography are examined. Widening applications of teleprocessing have given rise to a need for new types of cryptographic systems, which minimize the need for secure key distribution channels and supply the equivalent of a written signature. This paper suggests ways to solve these currently open problems. It also discusses…

IEEE Transactions on Information Theory template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IEEE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does IEEE Transactions on Information Theory use?
IEEE Transactions on Information Theory uses Numbered (IEEE) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, "A representative article title," IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, vol. 12, no. 3, pp. 45–58, 2023.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to IEEE Transactions on Information Theory?
No. DocuGuru generates the IEEEtran LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IEEE-ready IEEE Transactions on Information Theory document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is IEEE Transactions on Information Theory?
IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, published by IEEE. It is a engineering and computer science journal, published by IEEE.
Can I export a submission-ready IEEE Transactions on Information Theory PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official IEEE Transactions on Information Theory template (the IEEEtran class) that is ready to submit to IEEE, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory template cost?
You can start writing in the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready IEEE Transactions on Information Theory PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
