This paper introduces a novel method for the training of a complementary acoustic model with respect to set of given acoustic models. The method is based upon an extension of the Minimum Phone Error (MPE) criterion and aims at producing a model that makes complementary phone errors to those already trained. The technique is therefore called Complementary Phone Error (CPE) training. The method i...

Recently the author of this article proposed a new signal processing algorithm for an all fiber white light interferometer. In this article, an all fiber white light interferometric absolute temperature measurement system is presented using the previously proposed signal processing algorithm. Stability and absolute temperature measurement were demonstrated. These two tests demonstrated the feas...

We formulate the NP-hard absolute value equation as linear complementary problem when the singular values of A exceed one, and we proposed a mixed integer linear programming method to absolute value equation problem. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated by its ability to solve random problems.

In this paper we explore and validate the merits of using absolute and relative viewing distances from the screen as complementary input modalities for interactive systems. We motivate the use of viewing distance as a complementary modality by first mapping out its design space and then proposing several new applications that could benefit from it. We demonstrate that both absolute and relative...

Low power consumption, low chip area and fabrication in the standard complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process are vital requirements for oscillators used low-cost bio-implantable wearable devices. Conventional ring (ROs) good candidates using biomedical applications. However, their oscillation frequency strongly depends on temperature. In this study, a temperature compensated osci...

A cDNA encoding a polygalacturonase-inhibitor-like protein (PGIP) was isolated from cotton flower cDNA library. The cDNA, designated GhPS1 (GenBank accession No. ABO47744), encodes a protein with 370 amino acids that shares high similarity with the known plant PGIPs. Fluorescent microscopy indicated that GhPS1 protein localizes on the cell membranes as well as in cytoplasm. Real-time quantitati...

with respect to wide distribution of a. sieberi besser in iran, various studies have been done on its habitats and different ecological properties have been referred as effective factors in establishment of this species. in this research, we tried to study the ecological range of a. sieberi and its relationship with vegetative characteristics. therefore, climate properties including annual prec...
