Normalizing Rejection.

چکیده
Getting turned down for grant funding or having a manuscript rejected is an uncomfortable but not unusual occurrence during the course of a nurse researcher's professional life. Rejection can evoke an emotional response akin to the grieving process that can slow or even undermine productivity. Only by "normalizing" rejection, that is, by accepting it as an integral part of the scientific process, can researchers more quickly overcome negative emotions and instead use rejection to refine and advance their scientific programs. This article provides practical advice for coming to emotional terms with rejection and delineates methods for working constructively to address reviewer comments.

Multitone Jamming Rejection of Ffh/bfsk Self-normalizing Receiver
A computationally eficient bit-error rate (BER) expression for a fast frequency-hopped binary frequencysr’rift-keying (FFH/BFSK) spread-spectrum (SS) communication system is derived based on Taylor-series expansion. The I’FH system employs a soft-decision self-normalizing receiver against the worst-case multitone jamming (MTJ) and additive white Gaussian noise (A WGN). The analytical BER perfor...

When doing stochastic modeling one often face the problem of sampling from a posterior pdf on the form const l p where the normalizing constant is unknown The corresponding likelihood function l tends to be complicated and computational expensive while the prior p tends to be simpler This work origin from stochastic reservoir charac terization and history matching where calculation of the likel...
متن کاملVoice quality normalization in an utterance for robust ASR
In this paper, we propose a novel method of normalizing the voice quality in an utterance for both clean speech and speech contaminated by noise. The normalization method is applied to the N-best hypotheses from an HMM-based classifier, then an SM (Sub-space Method)-based verifier tests the hypotheses after normalizing the monophone scores together with the HMMbased likelihood score. The HMM-SM...
متن کاملA phone-dependent confidence measure for utterance rejection
An acoustic con dence measure for acceptance/rejection of recognition hypotheses for continuous speech utterances is proposed. This measure is useful for rejecting utterances that are out of domain, or contain out-of-vocabulary words or speech dis uencies. A phone-based approach is implemented so that a single global threshold can be applied to hypothesis rejection for any word sequence. Phone ...
متن کاملAn Auto-validating Rejection Sampler
In Bayesian statistical inference and computationally intensive frequentist inference, one is interested in obtaining samples from a high dimensional, and possibly multi-modal target density. The challenge is to obtain samples from this target without any knowledge of the normalizing constant. Several approaches to this problem rely on Monte Carlo methods. One of the simplest such methods is th...
