Dynamic testing of a four-storey building with reinforced concrete and unreinforced masonry walls: Prediction, test results and data set

Katrin Beyer, Sarah Petry, Marco Tondelli

This paper presents the results of a series of shake-table tests on a half-scale, four-storey building with reinforced concrete (RC) and unreinforced masonry (URM) walls. Due to the lack of reference tests, the seismic behaviour of such mixed structures is ...

The trail making test as a screening instrument for driving performance in older drivers; a translational research

Michael Herzog, Daniela Herzig, Isabel Cardoso, Paul Vaucher

Background: In many countries, primary care physicians determine whether or not older drivers are fit to drive. Little, however, is known regarding the effects of cognitive decline on driving performance and the means to detect it. This study explores to w ...

SVR vs MLP for Phone Duration Modelling in HMM-based Speech Synthesis

Philip Neil Garner, Pierre-Edouard Jean Charles Honnet

In this paper we investigate external phone duration models (PDMs) for improving the quality of synthetic speech in hidden Markov model (HMM)-based speech synthesis. Support Vector Regression (SVR) and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) were used for this task. S ...

Two step multiple comparisons procedures for positively dependent data with application to detecting differences in human brain network topologies

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Stephan Morgenthaler, Patric Hagmann, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

We consider the problem of testing positively dependent multiple hypotheses assuming that a prior information about the dependence structure is available. We propose two-step multiple comparisons procedures that exploit the prior information of the depende ...

Quality Assessment of a Stereo Pair Formed From Decoded and Synthesized Views Using Objective Metrics

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart

When a stereo pair is formed from a decoded view and a synthesized view, it is unclear how the overall quality of the stereo pair should be assessed through objective quality metrics. In this paper, this problem is addressed considering a 3D video represen ...
