We propose general quantitative methods for evaluating and visualizing the results of machine-generated style-specific accompaniment. The evaluation of automated accompaniment systems, and the degree to which they emulate a style, has been based primarily on subjective opinion. To quantify style similarity between machine-generated and original accompaniments, we propose two types of measures: ...

bitter asafetida (ferula asa-fetidae l.) is a wild plant of the family umbelliferae. the present study was carried out to determine the type of dormancy of the plant’s seed, and find out the most suitable treatment needed for quick germination of seeds. twelve treatments including ga3 (500, 1000, 1500 ppm), kno3 (0.1, 0.2 0.3 molar), rinsing (24, 48, 72 hour),elimination of seed coat (one year-...
