We propose an efficient error estimation scheme for QKD, which is called parity comparison method（PCM）. In the proposed method, the parity of a group of sifted keys is practically analysed to estimate the quantum bit error rate instead of using the traditional key sampling. From the simulation results, the proposed method evidently improves the accuracy and decreases revealed information in most realistic application situations.展开更多

To reduce the loss of throughput caused by CQEE, the robust MCS selection method and adaptive MCS switching scheme are proposed. In addition, automatic repeat request （ARQ） scheme is used to improve the block error rate （BLER） performance. Simulation results show that the proposed methods decrease the throughput loss resulted from CQEE efficiently and BLER performance gets better with ARQ scheme.展开更多

But they ignored the fact that the accuracy of time discretization decays at half an order when the characteristic line goes out of the domain. In present paper, the author shows that, as a remedy, a simple lumped scheme yields a full accuracy approximation.

In the first stage, curves are divided as linear segments or nonlinear segments. A least square estimator is used to find the estimated centers and radii of the nonlinear segments in the second stage. The found centers and radii are then evaluated to see if there exist circles in the nonlinear segments. Both of the broken and occluded circular objects are evaluated for the proposed method. From the experimental results, it is seen that the proposed method is efficient.展开更多

As a by-product of the local error estimator, the procedure provides a global error estimator that is shown numerically to be a very accurate estimate of the error in L1 （R） for all times. Although there is partial mathematical evidence for the error estimator proposed, at this stage the error estimator must be considered ad- hoc. Nonetheless, the error estimator is simple to compute, relatively inexpensive, without adjustable parameters and at least as accurate as other existing error estimators. Numerical experiments in 1-D for Burgers＇ equation and for Euler＇s system are performed to measure the asymptotic accuracy of the resulting scheme and of the error estimator.展开更多

The expansion coefficients of the solution are determined as the solution of a mathematical programming problem.The method involves two regularization parameters, Cf and r, but values assigned to these parameters are heuristic in nature. Essah & Delves[7] described an algorithm for setting these parameters automatically, but it has some difficulties. In this paper we describe three iterative algorithms for computing these parameters for singular and non-singular first kind integral equations. We give also error estimates which are cheap to compute. Finally, we give a number of numerical examples showing that these algorithms work well in practice.展开更多
