| We describe a general technique for specifying trajectories of controllable imaging parameters in an active vision system so that temporal integration processes are optimized. The technique assumes that a Kalman lter is used to perform the temporal integration of measurements and is based on determining, at each point in time, the set of imaging parameter values that minimizes the trace of th...

This paper presents a talker’s head orientation estimation method using only a single microphone, where phoneme HMMs (Hidden Markov Models) of clean speech are introduced to separate the acoustic transfer function at the user’s position and head orientation. The frame sequence of the acoustic transfer function is estimated by maximizing the likelihood of training data uttered from a given posit...

Introduction: We present a model of simulation of diffusion in white matter. This model has been used in Diffusion Weighted Imaging researches as a tool for employing cylindrically constrained two-tensor models to identify two independent directions within a voxel and assessing the orientation angle as a parameter that influence on fractional anisotropy.   Materials a...

1. The kinematics of sagittal-plane jaw motion were assessed in mastication and speech. The movement paths were described in joint coordinates, in terms of the component rotations and translations. The analysis focused on the relationship between rotation and horizontal translation. Evidence was presented that these can be separately controlled. 2. In speech, jaw movements were studied during c...

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of bridge orientation in casting machine on castability and quality of base metal castings. Methods: Three groups of patterns with different direction and lengths in casting machine were casted and then studied qualitatively and quantitatively using mean and standard deviation in table of frequency. Results: Larger nodules and poros...

− the present paper will present problems connected with accuracy inspection of free-form surfaces, performed with coordinate measuring machines equipped with touch measurement probes. The most important among them are, apart from the number and distribution of measurement points on a surface, errors caused by the probe radius compensation and determining the coordinate system. A theoretical an...
