Strongly torsion generated groups are those with a single normal generator, of arbitrary finite order. They are useful for realizing sequences of abelian groups as homology groups. Known examples include stable alternating groups and stable groups generate ...
The relationships between applied stress, deformation and internal pressure of water filled inclusions embedded in soft soils were studied to improve understanding of pore-scale mechanical behavior and towards development of methods for in situ measurement ...
High-resolution electroencephalographic (HREEG) techniques allow estimation of cortical activity based on non-invasive scalp potential measurements, using appropriate models of volume conduction and of neuroelectrical sources. In this study we propose an a ...
We present a new statistical model for characterizing texture images based on wavelet-domain hidden Markov models. With a small number of parameters, the new model captures both the subband marginal distributions and the dependencies across scales and orie ...
Vocal tract length normalization (VTLN) has been successfully used in automatic speech recognition for improved performance. The same technique can be implemented in statistical parametric speech synthesis for rapid speaker adaptation during synthesis. Thi ...
We describe a hybrid Lyapunov solver based on the matrix sign function, where the intensive parts of the computation are accelerated using a graphics processor (GPU) while executing the remaining operations on a general-purpose multi-core processor (CPU). ...
Daughter crystals in orientation relationship with a parent crystal are called variants. They can be created by a structural phase transition (Landau or reconstructive), by twinning or by precipitation. Internal and external classes of transformations defi ...
For an integer d a parts per thousand yen 1, let tau(d) be the smallest integer with the following property: if v (1), v (2), . . . , v (t) is a sequence of t a parts per thousand yen 2 vectors in [-1, 1] (d) with , then there is a set of indices, 2 a part ...
Although used in a very large variety of applications, drilling is one of the most complex and least understood manufacturing processes. Most of the research on drilling was done in the field of metal cutting for mechanical parts since, in this case, high ...
Dynamic textures are sequences of images showing temporal regularity; they can be found in videos representing smoke, flames, flowing water, or moving grass, for instance. Recently, one method based on linear dynamic system theory was proposed to synthesiz ...
