We have studied electrically active defects in buried layers, produced by heavy ion implantation in silicon, using both conventional deep level transient spectroscopy ~DLTS! and an isothermal spectroscopic technique called time analyzed transient spectroscopy operated in constant capacitance mode ~CC-TATS!. We show that CC-TATS is a more reliable method than DLTS for characterization of the hea...

Two males presented to our urology department with complaints of bleeding and malodor from buried phallus within a suprapubic fat pad. Although both men had neonatal circumcisions, advanced penile carcinoma was found in both men. Formal penectomies showed high grade, poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma invading the corporal bodies and urethra. Buried penis represents a difficulty in e...

Child vocal development is a subject that touches many areas. Its measurement is based mainly on subjective approaches. This study demonstrates an objective and unobtrusive measurement and monitoring approach using daylong audio recordings of the natural home environment. One purpose of this study is to explore the underlying features about child vocal development buried within the audio stream...

This Coastal and Hydraulic Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) summarizes the state of understanding of the influence of grain size on surf zone sediment transport and is a companion to Smith et al. (2004). This CHETN discusses details of bed-load and suspended load transport, and the classical bed-load regime is shown to encompass two distinct modes of transport. Four LST models with varying le...

In face processing tasks, prior presentation of internal facial features, when compared with external ones, facilitates the recognition of subsequently displayed familiar faces. In a previous ERP study (Olivares & Iglesias, 2010) we found a visibly larger N400-like effect when identity mismatch familiar faces were preceded by internal features, as compared to prior presentation of external ones...

This paper describes the methods we have employed to solve the author profiling task at PAN-2013. Our goal was to use simple features to identify the age group and the gender of the author of a given text. We introduce the features, detail how the classifiers were trained, and how the experiments were run.

The development of new concurrent detection and classification concepts has the potential of dramatically increasing the coverage rate of shallow water mine countermeasures, in particular for buried targets. The GOATS'98 experiment had as one of its main objectives to explore the possibility of basing such a concept on the measurement of classifying features of the 3-D acoustic scattering by su...

One of the major issues in buried archeological sites especially if characterized by intense human activity, complex structures, and several constructive phases, is: to what depth conduct the excavation? The answer depends on a number of factors, among these one of the most important is the a priori and reliable knowledge of what the subsoil can preserve. To this end, geophysics (if used in str...

spectral decomposition of time series has a significant role in seismic data processing and interpretation. since the earth acts as a low-pass filter, it changes frequency content of passing seismic waves. conventional representing methods of signals in time domain and frequency domain cannot show time and frequency information simultaneously. time-frequency transforms upgraded spectral decompo...
