Abstract:
Abstract This thesis describes the application of Low Coherence Interferometry (LCI) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in paper measurements. The developed measurement system is a combination of a profilometer and a tomographic imaging device, which makes the construction versatile and applicable in several paper measurement applications. The developed system was first used to measure the surface structure of paper. Different grades of paper were selected to provide maximum variation in surface structure. The results show that the developed system is capable of measuring grades of paper

Abstract:
Coherence and entanglement are the two key concepts that distinguish quantum mechanics from classical mechanics. Many novel phenomena occuring in the quantum world are due to these two “physical quantities”. They also play essential roles in quantum computation and quantum information. For example, coherence, which says that a quantum mechanical system could be in a superposition state, makes the quantum parallel computing scheme possible; and entanglement, which says that two quantum systems separated in space could be in an intervened state, is the key factor in various quantum teleportati

Abstract:
In this thesis, we introduce a novel model based on the idea of autoencoders. Different from a classic autoencoder which reconstructs its own inputs through a neural network, our model is closer to Kernel Canonical Correlation Analysis (KCCA) and reconstructs input data from another data set, where these two data sets should have some, perhaps non-linear, dependence. Our model extends traditional KCCA in a way that the non-linearity of the data is learned through optimizing a kernel function by a neural network. In one of the novelties of this thesis, we do not optimize our kernel based upon s

It argues that Lessing, as a humanist, is committed to individual personal actualization but that this is tempered with her personnally held views about what is valuable and enriching human experience.

In Part I, we propose a new method for dynamic nuclear polarisation in a quasi one-dimensional quantum wire utilising the spin-orbit interaction, the hyperfine interaction, and a finite source-drain potential difference. In contrast with previous methods, our scheme does not rely on external magnetic or optical sources which makes local control much more feasible. Using this method, a significant polarisation of a few per cent is possible in currently available InAs wires which may be detected by conductance measurements.

It is shown that these magnetic defects are also partly responsible for the high decoherence (phase loss) observed at low temperature, and that another (as yet unknown) non-magnetic mechanism is required to explain the remainder.

Using this definition, we generalize the result that every monoidal category is monoidally equivalent to a strict monoidal category, and show that the “strictification” functor has an interesting univer
