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

In a groundbreaking leap for photonics, scientists have created the world’s first programmable nonlinear photonic waveguide, a device that can switch between multiple optical functions on a single ...

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 ...

Conventional techniques may not be sufficient, but a new approach to implementing nonlinear algorithms may accomplish the goal. Roy Batruni, CEO, Optichron Nonlinear signal distortion is widespread ...

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 ...
