Almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions play a pivotal role in cryptography, particularly in securing symmetric key algorithms against differential attacks. Their algebraic properties, including ...

This article reviews work on the planning of experiments with response functions nonlinear in some parameters. Apart from older work on dilution series experiments and quantal bioassays, this field is ...

Lookup tables and Taylor series are two common methods for interpolating between experimentally gathered data or for generating a known function such as a sine wave. This article proposes a third ...

This study deals with atmospheric tropopause detection by satellite. It is found that incorrect forecasting of the trdpopause height yields a systematic bias in temperature profile estimates which use ...

Activation functions play a critical role in AI inference, helping to ferret out nonlinear behaviors in AI models. This makes them an integral part of any neural network, but nonlinear functions can ...

Non-linear physics is the study of systems where the output is not directly proportional to the input. Unlike linear systems, which follow simple, predictable relationships, non-linear systems exhibit ...
