An object-oriented analysis-synthesis coder is presented which encodes objects instead of blocks of N x N picture elements. The objects are described by three parameter sets defining the motion, shape and colour of an object. The parameter sets are obtained by image analysis based on source models of either moving 2D-objects or moving 3D-objects. Known coding techniques are used to encode the p...

A system of 13 ordinary differential equations with 42 parameters is presented to model hormonal regulation of the menstrual cycle. For an excellent fit to clinical data, the model requires a 36 h time delay for the effect of inhibin on the synthesis of follicle stimulating hormone. Biological and mathematical reasons for this delay are discussed. Bifurcations with respect to changes in three i...

Basics We will use the following parameters: • n, the security parameter.

Working memory capacity is one of the most important learner's characteristics that can be used as an input parameter for personalizing learning in order to improve the learning process. Therefore, knowing learner’s working memory capacity and personalizing the learning contents according to learner’s working memory capacity levels are important research issues. This paper proposes an approach ...

This paper describes synthesis of English syllable-initial stopliquid and /s/-stop-liquid clusters using the HLsyn speech synthesis program. The articulo-acoustic parameters of HLsyn permit efficient synthesis of most consonant types; the parameter specifications also capture important generalizations about how related sets of consonants are produced. Here, we discuss settings of a small number...

We present machine-assisted timing-parameter synthesis of the biphase mark protocol (BMP) [1] using event order abstraction (EOA)[2]. By using EOA, we separate the task of synthesizing parameter constraints that guarantee key safety properties of BMP into two parts: 1. Safety property verification of the protocol by a conventional untimed model-checker under the condition that “bad” event order...

Manual adjustment of control parameters for physical modeling synthesis suffers from practical limitations of timeintensive and sometimes arbitrary and haphazard parameter tweaking. An efficient approach to automatic parameter estimation, the goal of this study, would potentially eliminate much of the hit or miss nature of parameter tuning by finding optimal control parameters for physical mode...

This paper presents an analysis-by-synthesis multimode harmonic coder (AbS-MHC) that employs new techniques to improve both the speech model accuracy and the parameter estimation robustness in the low rate harmonic coding framework. To improve the speech model accuracy, an enhanced frequency domain transition model is used in conjunction with the sinusoidal model based harmonic coding of voiced...

Chemical synthesis is a versatile technique for fabricating novel nanostructured materials. In the Rieke process, a metal salt is reduced by an alkali in a hydrocarbon solvent to form small, highly reactive particles. Synthesis at an elevated temperature (200'C) increases the as-synthesized particle size and produces higher coercivities and remanence ratios than observed in similar syntheses at...
