Audio Feature Extraction and Pattern Recognition Introduction Extracting, recognizing, and categorizing features of audio signals (such as genre, tempo, timbre, or mood) are processes that humans perform almost subconsciously. However, audio feature recognition and categorization is largely experience-based. Therefore, the digital implementation of these processes has been largely subjective, b...

As the technologies for mobile commerce are maturing, professional support for the development of mobile applications is becoming increasingly important. In the same way as integrated development environments (IDEs) were introduced and are being used for conventional application development, IDEs for mobile application development are becoming available nowadays. In this paper, the features of ...

1.1. Digital IC Technologies and Logic-Circuit Families The chart in Figure 1 shows the major IC technologies and logic-circuit families that are currently in use. Members of each family are made with the same technology, have a similar circuit structure, and exhibit the same basic features. Each logiccircuit family offers a unique set of advantages and disadvantages. In the conventional style ...

functional magnetic resonance imaging (fmri) has become the most popular method for imaging of brain functions. currently, there is a large variety of software packages for the analysis of fmri data, each providing many features for users. since there is no single package that can provide all the necessary analyses for the fmri data, it is helpful to know the features of each software package. ...

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) packages have transformed the way organisations go about the process of providing Information Systems. Instead of crafting each new Information System locally, organisations are able to install well-integrated, internationally sourced packages that seek to provide best practice from IT systems world-wide. These packages also provide very rich choice in feature...

Different aspects of advanced surface mount package technology have been investigated for aerospace applications. Three key areas included the assembly reliability of conventional Surface Mount, Bali Grid Arrays (BGAs), and Chip Scale Packages. Reliability of BGAs was assessed as part of a consortium effort led by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Nearly 200 test vehicles, each with four packages,...

Technology transfer among speech recognition groups is inhibited by the lack of convenient and powerful means for exchanging programs and data. The new Speech Recognition Package (SRP) will emphasize extensibility, robustness, and portability. The design will exploit advanced software engineering techniques such as abstract interfaces, objectoriented programming, and selfdescribing objects. The...
