Mean-scatterer spacing estimates with spectral correlation.
An ultrasonic backscattered signal from material comprised of quasiperiodic scatterers exhibit redundancy over both its phase and magnitude spectra. This paper addresses the problem of estimating mean-scatterer spacing from the backscattered ultrasound signal using spectral redundancy characterized by the spectral autocorrelation (SAC) function. Mean-scatterer spacing estimates are compared for...
متن کاملGolay improvement of the robustness of mean scatterer spacing measurement with ultrasonic backscattering.
Mean scatterer spacing (MSS) estimated from ultrasonic backscattering is of valuable information for tissue characterization. However, low ultrasound frequency, sound attenuation, and diffuse scattering significantly disturb the current MSS measurement methods. The aim of this study is to improve MSS measurement with Coded Excitation (CE) enhanced cepstrum estimation. The study proposes a Golay...
متن کاملRecognition of Dysarthric Speech Using Voice Parameters for Speaker Adaptation and Multi-Taper Spectral Estimation
Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder resulting from impairment in muscles responsible for speech production, often characterized by slurred or slow speech resulting in low intelligibility. With speech based applications such as voice biometrics and personal assistants gaining popularity, automatic recognition of dysarthric speech becomes imperative as a step towards including people with dysar...
متن کاملDiabolical points in multi-scatterer optomechanical systems
Diabolical points, which originate from parameter-dependent accidental degeneracies of a system's energy levels, have played a fundamental role in the discovery of the Berry phase as well as in photonics (conical refraction), in chemical dynamics, and more recently in novel materials such as graphene, whose electronic band structure possess Dirac points. Here we discuss diabolical points in an ...
متن کاملMinimum bias multiple taper spectral estimation
Two families of orthonormal tapers are proposed for multitaper spectral analysis: minimum bias tapers, and sinusoidal tapers {v(k)}, where v (k) n = √ 2 N+1 sin πkn N+1 , and N is the number of points. The resulting sinusoidal multitaper spectral estimate is Ŝ(f) = 1 2K(N+1) ∑K j=1 |y(f+ j 2N+2)−y(f − j 2N+2)| 2, where y(f) is the Fourier transform of the stationary time series, S(f) is the spe...
