This lecture is a review of what is known about modeling human speech recognition (HSR). A model is proposed, and data are tested against the model.
There seem to be a large number of theories, or points of view, on how human speech recognition functions, yet few of these theories are comprehensive. What is needed is a set of models that are...
This book examines the recent progress made in the emerging field of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology in the context of its imminent insertion and deployment in radio frequency (RF) and microwave wireless applications. In particular, as the potential of RF MEMS to enable the implementation of sophisticated, yet low-power, portable...
Scientific research on dengue has a long and rich history. The literature has been touched by famous names in medicine- Benjamin Rush, Walter Reed, and Albert Sabin, to name a very few- and has been fertile ground for medical historians . The advances made in those early investigations are all the more remarkable for the limited tools available...
This textbook introduces sparse and redundant representations with a focus on applications in signal and image processing. The theoretical and numerical foundations are tackled before the applications are discussed. Mathematical modeling for signal sources is discussed along with how to use the proper model for tasks such as denoising,...
Beginning XML provides a complete course in the Extensible Markup Language (XML) with an unusually gradual learning curve. In fact, the introduction states that the book is "for people who know that it would be a pretty good idea to learn the language, but aren't 100 percent sure why." Despite its recognition of the...
3Com's PalmPilot is the world's bestselling hand-held computer platform. In three years, its 16 models from 5 different manufacturers have captured 80 percent of the palmtop market. About the size of a playing card, Palm devices are lightweight (under 6 ounces), offering two-month battery life, handwriting recognition,...
The guide to getting hired, being promoted, and thriving professionally for the 40 million people of color in the workplace—fromthe CEO and cofounder of Jopwell, the leading career advancement platform for Black, Latinx, and Native American students and professionals.
Biometric recognition--the automated recognition of individuals based on their behavioral and biological characteristic--is promoted as a way to help identify terrorists, provide better control of access to physical facilities and financial accounts, and increase the efficiency of access to services and their utilization. Biometric...
In the second half of the 20th century innate immune responses of cellular or humoral
type were treated like stepchildren by many immunologists: that is, somewhat
neglected. This disregard turned into an exciting research field over the past several
years and led to the identification of receptor families involved in the recognition...
Intended for graduate students and advanced undergraduates in computer science, A Second Course in Formal Languages and Automata Theory treats topics in the theory of computation not usually covered in a first course. After a review of basic concepts, the book covers combinatorics on words, regular languages, context-free languages, parsing and...
Beginning Kinect Programming with the Microsoft Kinect SDK gets you up and running developing Kinect applications for your PC using Microsoft tools and the official SDK. You will have a working Kinect program by the end of the first chapter! The following chapters will open up the secrets of three-dimensional vision, skeleton...
