Fully nonlinear filter theory is applied to a simple threshold system, which plays the role of an observer of input signals from a Brownian dynamical system. Our filtering results are discussed within the frameworks of both stochastic resonance and self-tuning of the threshold values, which...

“End of Moore’s Law” has recently become a topic. Keeping the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the same level in the future will surely increase the energy density of smaller-sized transistors. Lowering the operating voltage will prevent this, but the SNR would inevitably degrade. Meanwhile,...
