The spatial step size for the second-order accurate Muskingum-Cunge (M-C) method is determined by the spatial weighting factor. Both the spatial weighting factor and the time step must be selected judiciously to obtain accurate solutions. In this study, ac ...
In order to achieve selective inversion of a chosen family of sidebands in NMR spectra of solids rotating at the magic angle (MAS spectra), a sequence of so-called DANTE pulses can be applied in synchronization with the sample rotation period. It is shown ...
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a recent, non-invasive technique that allows the measurement of brain metabolism while a subject is performing specific motor or cognitive tasks. The practical difficulty is that the signal changes are very s ...
New radio-frequency pulse envelopes are presented for selective inversion and in-phase excitation in NMR. The envelope functions consist of superpositions of three or four time-shifted Gaussians with optimized widths and peak amplitudes. The offset depende ...
Lab sessions given in relation to Herve Bourlard's Speech Recognition course at EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne), second semester 2001. The full session is available from the web as ftp://ftp.idiap.ch/pub/sacha/labs/Session1.tgz . ...
Field measurements are undertaken with the specific purpose of addressing open issues in subgrid-scale (SGS) modeling of turbulence for large eddy simulation. Wind velocity and temperature signals are obtained using a horizontal linear array of six three-d ...
We present a new method for estimating heart motion from two-dimensional (2D) echocardiographic sequences. It is inspired by the Lucas-Kanade algorithm for optical flow which estimates motion parameters over a sliding window. However, instead of assuming t ...
Our goal is to detect and localize areas of activation in the brain from sequences of fMRI images. The standard approach for reducing the noise contained in the fMRI images is to apply a spatial Gaussian filter which entails some loss of details. Here inst ...
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a recent technique that allows the measurement of brain metabolism (local concentration of deoxyhemoglobin using BOLD contrast) while subjects are performing a specific task. A block paradigm produces alterna ...
Multiplets that arise from scalar couplings in one- and two-dimensional NMR spectra can be considered as if they resulted from several successive convolutions with in-phase and antiphase doublets of d functions with splittings that correspond to scalar cou ...
