Ackley Function

April 29, 2022 - Reading time: 2 minutes

The Ackley function is widely used for testing optimization algorithms. In its two-dimensional form, as shown in the plot above, it is characterized by a nearly flat outer region, and a large hole at the centre. The function poses a risk for optimization algorithms, particularly hillclimbing algorithms, to be trapped in one of its many local minima.

Recommended variable values are: a = 20, b = 0.2 and c = 2π.

So,

Adam H Image Capable Digital Mode (AHICDM)

April 29, 2022 - Reading time: 2 minutes

AHICDM is a simple digital mode that transmits bits by varying the amount of silence between pulses. It is a narrowband mode that transmits slowly.

I only came across this modulation while looking at the Recently changed pages list of sigidwiki. It looked easy to implement, and didn’t have much written about it, so I decided to play around with the provided audio example.

I have never seen this modulation used in the wild, and the only mention I have seen of it is in the Signal Identification Wiki. This page is written by analyzing the audio recording provided on the wiki page.

A/B Testing

April 24, 2022 - Reading time: 3 minutes

A/B testing is a method to find out which variant of a text or graphic converts better. When you want to change an aspect of the design, rather than going in blindly or going with your gut feeling, A/B testing lets you make changes that perform better, or at the very least as well as the existing design.

Your success with A/B testing depends on a few factors
