heterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings

from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...

Stationary space-time Gaussian fields and their time autoregressive representation

We compare two different modelling strategies for continuous space discrete time data. The Žrst strategy is in the spirit of Gaussian kriging. The model is a general stationary space–time Gaussian Želd where the key point is the choice of a parametric form for the covariance function. In the main, covariance functions that are used are separable in space and time. Nonseparable covariance functi...

Time-frequency or time-scale representation fission and fusion rules

Time-frequency representations are important for the analysis of time series. We have developed an online timeseries analysis system and equipped it to reliably handle re-alignment in the time-frequency plane. The system can deal with issues like invalid regions in time-frequency representations and discontinuities in data transmissions, making it suitable for on-line processing in real-world s...

From Time to Time: The Representation of Timing and Tempo

Timing plays an important role in the performance and appreciation of almost all types of music. It has been studied extensively in music perception and music performance research (see Palmer 1997 for a review). The most important outcome of this research is that a large part of the timing patterns found in music performance—commonly referred to as expressive timing—can be explained in terms of...
