This contribution deals with the problem of blind channel identi cation and equalization based on the (temporally or spatially) oversampled channel output. A novel algorithm is presented which builds on a multistep prediction (MSP) approach and can be viewed as a certain generalization of the initial Linear Prediction Algorithm (LPA) proposed in 1994. Our algorithm improves on most recent relat...

Introduction Conclusions References

We introduce a novel algorithm for automatically generating rhythms in real time in a certain meter. The generated rhythms are "generic" in the sense that they are characteristic of each time signature without belonging to a specific musical style. The algorithm is based on a stochastic model in which various aspects and qualities of the generated rhythm can be controlled intuitively and in rea...

The aim of this paper is the study of a covering of a max-mingeneral fuzzy automaton by another, admissible relations, admissiblepartitions of a max-min general fuzzy automaton,$tilde{delta}$-orthogonality of admissible partitions, irreduciblemax-min general fuzzy automata. Then we obtain the relationshipsbetween them.  

Background and Aim: The conventional procedure for removal of porcelain laminate veneers (PLVs) is time-consuming and inconvenient. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of Er:YAG laser for debonding of PLVs. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight intact extracted human maxillary anterior teeth received discoid PLVs (24 feldspathic and 24 e-max ceramic). The PLVs had 0.7 mm thickn...
