Wearable Triboelectric Generator based on a Hybrid Mix of Carbon Nanotube and Polymer Layers

A novel single-layer structured triboelectric generator (TEG) is proposed with a hybrid mix of carbon nanotube (CNT) and silk. Here, the mixing of two materials in liquid phase for proven effective power generation is shown. In this research, CNT provides ...

Visual Analysis of Maya Glyphs via Crowdsourcing and Deep Learning

Gülcan Can

In this dissertation, we study visual analysis methods for complex ancient Maya writings. The unit sign of a Maya text is called glyph, and may have either semantic or syllabic significance. There are over 800 identified glyph categories, and over 1400 var ...

Analyzing and Visualizing Ancient Maya Hieroglyphics Using Shape: from Computer Vision to Digital Humanities

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Jean-Marc Odobez, Rui Hu

Maya hieroglyphic analysis requires epigraphers to spend a significant amount of time browsing existing catalogs to identify individual glyphs. Automatic Maya glyph analysis provides an efficient way to assist scholars’ daily work. We introduce the Histogr ...

Enhancing State Mapping-Based Cross-Lingual Speaker Adaptation using Phonological Knowledge in a Data-Driven Manner

John David Scott Dines, Hui Liang

HMM state mapping with the Kullback-Leibler divergence as a distribution similarity measure is a simple and effective technique that enables cross-lingual speaker adaptation for speech synthesis. However, since this technique does not take any other potent ...

VTLN-Based Rapid Cross-Lingual Adaptation for Statistical Parametric Speech Synthesis

Philip Neil Garner, John David Scott Dines, Hui Liang, Lakshmi Babu Saheer

Cross-lingual speaker adaptation (CLSA) has emerged as a new challenge in statistical parametric speech syn- thesis, with specific application to speech-to-speech translation. Recent research has shown that reasonable speaker similarity can be achieved in ...
