Morphing Airfoils with Four Morphing Parameters

An episodic unsupervised learning simulation using the Q-Learning method is developed to learn the optimal shape and shape change policy for a problem with four state variables. Optimality is addressed by reward functions based on airfoil properties such as lift coefficient, drag coefficient, and moment coefficient about the leading edge representing optimal shapes for specified flight conditio...

Website Morphing

V advisors often increase sales for those customers who find such online advice to be convenient and helpful. However, other customers take a more active role in their purchase decisions and prefer more detailed data. In general, we expect that websites are more preferred and increase sales if their characteristics (e.g., more detailed data) match customers’ cognitive styles (e.g., more analyti...

Audio Morphing

Approach: There are two variants of our work: inter-voice morphing and intra-voice morphing. In the intra-voice morphing scenario, a single person’s voice is recorded uttering a wide range of utterances. The speaker’s phones are then morphed in time to generate new utterances of the speaker. We note that intra-voice morphing addresses the same problem that concatenative speech synthesis algorit...
