Although the representation of the real numbers in terms of a base and a set of digits has a long history, new questions arise even in the binary case – digits 0 and 1. A binary positional number system (binary radix system) with base equal to the golden ratio (1 + √ 5 )/2 is fairly well known. The main result of this paper is a construction of infinitely many binary radix systems, each one con...

The Trail Making Test and Digit Span are neuropsychological tests widely used to assess executive abilities following stroke. The Trails B and Digits Backward conditions of these tests are thought to be more sensitive to executive impairment related to frontal lobe dysfunction than the Trails A and Digits Forward conditions. Trails B and Digits Backward are also thought to be more sensitive to ...

This paper describes development of a real-time speech recognition system in Slovak for the voice-operated telephone services. The system is based on SPHINX2 platform. The decoder using Hidden Markov Models was trained on the SpeechDat-E Slovak database. It is speaker independent, large vocabulary, continuous speech real-time automatic speech recognition system. Test results are given for the t...

background and aim: digits are suitable materials for hearing assessment of wide range of patients including children and adults with various language abilities. single monosyllabic 1-10 digits in triplet formant have been used for measuring speech recognition threshold in signal-to-noise ratio. the purpose of this study was to determine signal-to-noise ratio (snr) needed for 50 percent correct...

Previous research has indicated that field-dependent children display poorer performance than field-independent children in almost all academic subjects and cognitive tasks. However, the processes underlying this poorer performance remain unclear. The present study aimed to assess whether children with different FDI cognitive styles show differences in performance of tasks measuring aspects of ...

Purpose: To develop Brazilian Portuguese Dichotic Sentence List Test, check its applicability and propose an application protocol for auditory processing assessment. Methods: The lists of sentences were taken from the original material, analyzed in detailed and adapted to form the new test. To compose pairs of sentences with as much of the same duration as possible, the duration of each sentenc...

in this paper, we use petrov-galerkin elements such as continuous and discontinuous lagrange-type k-0 elements and hermite-type 3-1 elements to find an approximate solution for linear fredholm integro-differential equations on $[0,1]$. also we show the efficiency of this method by some numerical examples

The digit span test was employed in the original Binet-Simon2 tests and has since been employed in the different revisions of the Binet by somewhat shifting the age norms. The Binet tests use the forward and backward reproduction of digits. Humpstone3 employed the group test method necessitating the immediate written reproduction of a series of digits presented at the rate of about 6 digits per...

To gain insight into the synergistic control of hand muscles, we have recently quantified the strength of correlated neural activity across motor units from extrinsic digit flexors during a five-digit object-hold task. We found stronger synchrony and coherence across motor units from thumb and index finger flexor muscle compartment than between the thumb flexor and other finger flexor muscle co...
