Subspace system identification

We give a general overview of the state-of-the-art in subspace system identification methods. We have restricted ourselves to the most important ideas and developments since the methods appeared in the late eighties. First, the basis of linear subspace identification are summarized. Different algorithms one finds in literature (Such as N4SID, MOESP, CVA) are discussed and put into a unifyin...

Identification card and codification of the chemical and morphological characteristics of 62 dental implant surfaces . Part 1 : description of the Implant Surface Identification Standard ( ISIS ) codification system

Dental implants are commonly used in dental therapeutics, but dental practitioners only have limited information about the characteristics of the implant materials they take the responsibility to place in their patients. Manufacturers, scientists and administrations are also lacking of a consensual and clear method and terminology to characterize and control implant surfaces. The objective of t...

Melodic contour identification by cochlear implant listeners.

OBJECTIVE While the cochlear implant provides many deaf patients with good speech understanding in quiet, music perception and appreciation with the cochlear implant remains a major challenge for most cochlear implant users. The present study investigated whether a closed-set melodic contour identification (MCI) task could be used to quantify cochlear implant users' ability to recognize musical...

Model-based biomechanical dental implant optimization in bone- implant system

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the important parameters for a model-based design optimization method through comparison of different biomechanical environments and various dental implant models. Materials and Methods: Finite element analysis (FEA) was applied to model a mandibular bone implant system. Essential parameters, such as, cortical bone properties, boundary conditio...
