In this paper we introduce the SpeakCorrect system which is a Computer Aided Pronunciation Training (CAPT) system for native Arabic students of English. The system is designed with optimized performance for the target users group. It is L1 dependent system and only the frequent pronunciation errors of native Arabic speakers are examined. Several adaptation techniques such as Speaker Adaptive Tr...

Parmi tous les syndromes de surmenage liés à la pratique sportive, la pubalgie est certainement un des plus invalidants. C'est un syndrome douloureux de la région inguino-pubienne qui touche particulièrement le joueur du football. Les formes inguino-pariètales sont de loin les plus fréquentes. Le traitement médical est entrepris dans la majorité des cas, mais il semble être moins efficace dans ...

We provide a simple analysis of the Douglas-Rachford splitting algorithm in the context of ` minimization with linear constraints, and quantify the asymptotic linear convergence rate in terms of principal angles between relevant vector spaces. In the compressed sensing setting, we show how to bound this rate in terms of the restricted isometry constant. More general iterative schemes obtained b...

This paper explores the historical discourse around migrant voices within British art history, why now is time to address these subjects and how through use of participatory digital it possible educate for social change. The will focus in particular on shemza.digital, a interactive project created by Aphra Shemza Stuart Batchelor. was funded Arts Council...

An analytic study was conducted on coupled partial differential equations. We formally derived new solitary wave solutions of generalized coupled system of Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) and KdV equations by using modified extended tanh method. The traveling wave solutions for each generalized coupled system of ZK and KdV equations are shown in form of periodic, dark, and bright solitary wave solution...
