The authors propose a scaling of the sawtooth repetition time for Ohmic discharges. This scaling has been obtained from simulations with reduced magnetohydrodynamic equations together with a simple profile consistent transport model. The choice of a profile consistent perpendicular thermal diffusion coefficient allows the scaling of the sawtooth repetition time to be obtained in terms of the di...

There are various kinds of practical implementation issues for the HMM. The use of scaling factor is the main issue in HMM implementation. The scaling factor is used for obtaining smoothened probabilities. The proposed technique called Modified Forward-Backward Re-estimation algorithm used to recognize speech patterns. The proposed algorithm has shown very good recognition accuracy as compared ...

We numerically reexamine the scaling behavior of period doublings in fourdimensional volume-preserving maps in order to resolve a discrepancy between numerical results on scaling of the coupling parameter and the approximate renormalization results reported by Mao and Greene [Phys. Rev. A 35, 3911 (1987)]. In order to see the fine structure of period doublings, we extend the simple one-term sca...

A novel and general approach to scaling diffraction intensities is presented. The method minimizes the disagreement among multiple measurements of symmetry-related reflections using a stable refinement procedure. The scale factors are described by a flexible exponential function that allows different scaling corrections to be chosen and combined according to the needs of the experiment. The sca...

A non-adaptive image interpolation algorithm is proposed to scale images for any given scaling factor with an enhancement scheme to ensure a better picture. |In the proposed algorithm, two reference frames, one with higher resolution and another with lower resolution are generated using an original videoframefor the User defined scaling factor. Later, two Intermediate frames are generated from ...

OBJECTIVE To incorporate value-based weight scaling into the Fellegi-Sunter (F-S) maximum likelihood linkage algorithm and evaluate the performance of the modified algorithm. Background Because healthcare data are fragmented across many healthcare systems, record linkage is a key component of fully functional health information exchanges. Probabilistic linkage methods produce more accurate, dyn...

This paper presents a novel differential evolution (DE) algorithm using a dynamic strategy, local search, and a self-adaptive scaling factor (DELSBP ) to enhance the performance of the traditional DE algorithm. The DELSBP consists of a dynamic strategy, which updates the optimal vector instantaneously, and back-propagation-based local search, which enhances its searching capability from the cor...

The concentration and sparsity of signal representation in the Hermite transform (HT) basis may highly depend on a properly chosen scaling factor and discrete time shift parameter. In that sense, we propose a simple and efficient iterative procedure for automatic determination of the optimal scaling factor. The optimization criterion is based on the l1-norm acting as a measure of signal concent...
