    • Code constructions and code families for nonbinary quantum stabilizer code 
      Ketkar, Avanti Ulhas (Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
      Stabilizer codes form a special class of quantum error correcting codes. Nonbinary quantum stabilizer codes are studied in this thesis. A lot of work on binary quantum stabilizer codes has been done. Nonbinary stabilizer ...
    • Code design based on metric-spectrum and applications 
      Papadimitriou, Panayiotis D. (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
      We introduced nested search methods to design (n, k) block codes for arbitrary channels by optimizing an appropriate metric spectrum in each iteration. For a given k, the methods start with a good high rate code, say k/(k ...
    • Deconvolution in Random Effects Models via Normal Mixtures 
      Litton, Nathaniel A. (2010-10-12)
      This dissertation describes a minimum distance method for density estimation when the variable of interest is not directly observed. It is assumed that the underlying target density can be well approximated by a mixture ...
