Disorders such as borderline personality disorder (BPD) or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are characterized by impulsive behaviors. Impulsivity as used in clinical terms is very broadly defined and entails different categories including personality traits as well as different cognitive functions such as emotion regulation or interference resolution and impulse control. Impulse ...

Over the last decade of the 20th century, the emerging ultrawide-band (UWB) impulse technology has found numerous applications in the commercial as well as the military sectors. The rapid technological advances have made it possible to implement (cost-effective, short-range) impulse radar and impulse-radio communication and localization systems. Array beamforming and space–time processing techn...

We propose a blind dereverberation method based on spectral subtraction using a multi-channel least mean squares (MCLMS) algorithm for distant-talking speech recognition. In a distant-talking environment, the channel impulse response is longer than the short-term spectral analysis window. By treating the late reverberation as additive noise, a noise reduction technique based on spectral subtrac...

The causal impulse response of the velocity potential for the Stokes wave equation is derived for calculations of transient velocity potential fields generated by circular pistons in viscous media. The causal Green's function is numerically verified using the material impulse response function approach. The causal, lossy impulse response for a baffled circular piston is then calculated within t...

This paper studies the effects of psychological, individual, product strategy, and situational factors on the impulse purchase behavior of customers in all Refah stores located in Tehran. The paper uses Betty and Ferrell Model to set forward and to test 4 hypothesis. All four hypothesis were confirmed. The results indicated that the selected factors had impact on the impulse behavior of the con...

We study emergence of quantum and dynamic information during an observer’s impulse interactions with environment. The interactive delta-impulse of Markov diffusion process cuts the process correlation revealing hidden information connecting the process inner states. Information appears as phenomenon of interactions. The impulse probing probabilities, observing random process under Kolmogorov’s ...
