A model of music listening has been automated. A program takes digital audio as input, for example from a compact disc, and outputs an explanation of the music in terms of repeated sections and the implied structure. For example, when the program constructs an analysis of John Coltrane’s “Naima,” it generates a description that relates to the AABA form and notices that the initial AA is omitted...

The Automated Multi-Level Sub-structuring (AMLS) method is a powerful technique to determine a large number of eigenpairs with moderate accuracy of huge symmetric and definite eigenvalue problems in structural analysis. This paper is concerned with an adapted version of AMLS for eigenfrequency analysis of fluid-solid interaction systems. Although fluid-solid vibrations are governed by an unsymm...

The detection of local structural patterns in proteins (e.g. active sites) can provide insights into protein function in the absence of sequence or fold similarity. Methods to detect such similarities are key during structural annotation, for example with results from Structural Genomics initiatives. PINTS (Patterns in Non-homologous Tertiary Structures, http://pints.embl.de) performs database ...

This paper considers experimental information on the atomic arrangements in non-crystalline single element films of transition and coinage metals prepared by vapour quenching and compares this information with results from recently reported structural models. The method of structural analysis using transmission electron diffraction is outlined and several recent experimental investigations are ...

In order to understand the phenomenon of longevity in biological world, the relationship between the potential of longevity of an organism and its structural complexity is analyzed. I. Potential of longevity is the maximum longevity of an organism if it lives in an ideal environment. Longevity of an organism includes the time for development (developing time) and the time for structure-maintena...

The aim of this study is decomposition of the changes in energy consumption with emphasizing the structural changes in Iran during 2001-2011 using Input- Output Structural Decomposition Analysis (I_O SDA). Structural changes in this study represent the changes in structure of intermediate input in sectors and also changes in structure of final demand categories. Structural changes in intermedia...

Structures in Other Domains The methodology of structural analysis discussed in this article has been applied beyond the narrow realm of natural language syntax that we have discussed in this article. Within the study of language, similar methods of analysis have been pervasively applied to the study of sounds (phonology), words (morphology), and meanings (semantics), yielding a range of of abs...
