This thesis studies the problem of structured prediction (SP), where the agent needs to predict a structured output for a given structured input (e.g., Part-of-Speech tagging sequence for an input sentence). Many important applications including machine translation in natural language processing (NLP) and image interpretation in computer vision can be...
The design of high-performance, high-speed clock generation and distribution becomes challenging in terms of phase noise, jitter and power consumption, due to the fast development of communication and computing systems. Injection locking is a promising clocking technique since it can significantly improve the energy efficiency, suppress the phase noise of...
