The paper deals with a modification of a Sparse distributed memory that uses some features of a Restricted coulomb energy classifier. The basic principle, topology, data storing and retrieving and one practical application of this net, including special input and output data encodings, are described.

    Abstract: The formulas for data-based LQ synthesis are modified to allow for the reduction in noise-induced design error. Modification in the design formulas includes the introduction of a linear filter that enhances the auto-regressive nature of the optimal control input solution. Copyright © 2005 IFAC 

The duration of a speech passage can be altered using audio time-scale modification techniques. Time-scale modification can be achieved in the time domain by segmenting the input signal into overlapping frames and recombining the frames with an overlap differing from the analysis overlap. We present a time-scale modification algorithm that uses a simple peak alignment technique to synchronize o...

A new method, the multiresolutional modification algorithm (MMA), which modifies speech signals in frequency and time domains, is proposed for listeners with hearing impairment and early clinical results are reported. Unlike other methods, this algorithm modifies the wavelet coefficients of the speech signal in order to obtain a modified version of the original signal instead of modifying the s...

A dynamic program, as introduced by Patnaik and Immerman (1994), maintains the result of a fixed query for an input database which is subject to tuple insertions and deletions. It can use an auxiliary database whose relations are updated via first-order formulas upon modifications of the input database. This paper studies static analysis problems for dynamic programs and investigates, more spec...

This paper attempts to improve the quality and the modification rate of a Stego Image. The input image provided for estimating the quality of an image and the modified rate is a bitmap image. The threshold value is used as a parameter for selecting the high frequency pixels from the Cover Image. The data embedding process are performed on the pixels that are found with the help of Threshold val...

This paper is about the functionality of software systems used in answer set programming (ASP). ASP languages are viewed here, in the spirit of Datalog, as mechanisms for characterizing intensional (output) predicates in terms of extensional (input) predicates. Our approach to the semantics of ASP programs is based on the concept of a stable model defined in terms of a modification of parallel ...

The article focuses on modification of traditional Marching cubes algorithm for medical applications. Main disadvantage of the traditional algorithm is size of models. A reduction process has been added to the MC to produce much smaller models. The reduction process is applied during the MC, after processing of each input data layer. Resulting models are 4-5 times smaller in only doubled time.

This paper presents a modification for robust minutiae based fingerprint verification methods that use Delaunay triangulations. The purpose of this modification is to decrease the number of comparison operations and the error rates within the matching process, by doing a full analysis of the Delaunay triangles. From this full analysis, a modified method was proposed. The identified minutiae rep...

In our previous work, we have developed a speech modification system capable of manipulating unobserved articulatory movements by sequentially performing speech-to-articulatory inversion mapping and articulatory-to-speech production mapping based on a Gaussian mixture model (GMM)-based statistical feature mapping technique. One of the biggest issues to be addressed in this system is quality deg...
