Interactive Realities: A Tutorial on Multi-Modal, Collaborative Virtual Reality

In the field of virtual reality, there is much attention to the notion of multi-modal environments. These environments use various senses of the human body to achieve an overall immersion in the environment leading to an increased sense of presence. In addition, there is much work in collaborative architectures allowing users to interact with each other and the world itself. This tutorial intro...

Noise Effects on Modal Parameters Extraction of Horizontal Tailplane by Singular Value Decomposition Method Based on Output Only Modal Analysis

According to the great importance of safety in aerospace industries, identification of dynamic parameters of related equipment by experimental tests in operating conditions has been in focus. Due to the existence of noise sources in these conditions the probability of fault occurrence may increases. This study investigates the effects of noise in the process of modal parameters identification b...

A tutorial on Quasi-experimental designs

A main step in answering a scientific hypothesis in an epidemiological study is deciding which type of study is suitable to be undertaken, considering methodology, practical considerations and budget and time limitations

A Tutorial on Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis

Historically, many believe that these three papers [7, 8, 9] established the techniques of Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis or PLSA for short. However, there also exists one variant of the model in [11] and indeed all these models were originally discussed in an earlier technical report [10]. In [2], the authors extended MLE-style estimation of PLSA to MAP-style estimations. A hierarchica...
