ABSTRACT. Probability theory is applied to the problem of estimating the ratio of the amplitudes of two sinusoids in nuclear magnetic resonance data. The posterior probability-density for the amplitude ratio is derived independent of the phase, frequencies, decay-rate constants, variance of the noise, and the amplitude of the other sinusoid. This probability-density function is then applied in ...

Sound morphing is one of the successful synthesis technologies for recent computer music, and several studies have been reported on this subject. We have proposed a sound morphing algorithm based on a sinusoidal model. In this paper, a correspondence search algorithm is improved, which is core technology of morphing based on a sinusoidal model. Then wider applications of the algorithm are intro...

Probability theory is applied to the problem of estimating the amplitudes of the sinusoids in nuclear magnetic resonance data containing two exponentially decaying sinusoids. The posterior probability-density of one of the amplitudes is derived independent of the phases, frequencies, decay-rate constants, variance of the noise, and the amplitude of the other sinusoid. This probability-density f...

We present a direct proof of a theorem linking the order of moment isotropy and degree of discrete rotational symmetry for a two-dimensional set of lattice vectors. This theorem has been proved previously based on properties of sinusoidal functions. The new proof is based instead on purely linear algebraic arguments.

Rotation of the illuminant source about a subject textured surface can cause catastrophic failure of texture classification schemes. This is due to the variation of texture feature output that can occur when the illuminant direction is varied. This paper uses theory and experiment to show that the outputs of linear texture filters, and their features, are sinusoidal functions of the illuminant’...

light-weight and high strength alloys such as al-mg alloys are used in order to reduce the weight of industrial components. however these materials should be formed at elevated temperatures due to their poor formability at room temperature. hot metal gas forming is one of the high-tech forming processes that is used to solve this problem. recent investigation on tube hydroforming showed positiv...

In this paper, a novel technique based on the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) methodology is proposed and examined for the noise-robustness of automatic speech recognition systems. The EMD analysis is a generalization of the Fourier analysis for processing non-linear and non-stationary time functions, in our case, the speech feature sequences. We use the first and second intrinsic mode funct...

Daily animal solutions were predicted using random regression analysis for feed intake, milk yield, live weight, and condition score recorded on 189 cows at the Langhill Dairy Cattle Research Centre. All cows had three successive lactations. Energy balance for days 1 to 305 of each of the three lactations was calculated both from daily measures of feed intake and milk output and from weekly mea...

using of nanofluids and ducts with corrugated walls are both supposed to enhance heat transfer, by increasing the heat transfer fluid conductivity and the heat transfer area respectively. use of a diverging duct with a jet at inlet section may further increase heat transfer by creating recirculation zones inside the duct. in this work two-dimensional incompressible laminar flow of a nanofluid e...
