Room acoustic modal analysis using Bayesian inferencea)
Strong modal behavior can produce undesirable acoustical effects, particularly in recording studios and other small rooms. Although closed-form solutions exist to predict modes in rectangular rooms with parallel walls, such solutions are typically not available for rooms with even modest geometrical complexity. This work explores a method to identify multiple decaying modes in experimentally me...
متن کاملReply to comment on " Fault zone strength and failure criteria "
I thankLockner et al. [this issue], hereafter referred to as LBS, for their interest in this work. LBS suggest that I [Marone, 1995] misunderstood their analysis and that their proposed empirical relation is indeed valid. I do not agree. I do not deny that LBS have established some form of empirical relationship, only the specific form of the relation and its theoretical basis are at issue. The...
متن کاملComparison of Statistical Significance Criteria
We study and compare two classes of statistical criteria to assess the significance of exceptional words. Indeed, the Z-score-like criteria, or the normal approximation that is a strict equivalent, suffer from several drawbacks in terms of sensitivity and specificity. Thanks to the combinatorial structure of words, a computation of the exact P-value has been made possible by recent mathematical...
متن کاملA revised method of sexing the human innominate using Phenice's nonmetric traits and statistical methods.
The traits of the pubis described by Phenice (Am J Phys Anthropol 30 (1969) 297-302) have been used extensively by physical anthropologist for sex estimation. This study investigates all three of Phenice's characteristics in an approach similar to Walker's (Am J Phys Anthropol 136 (2008) 39-50) study using observations from the cranium and mandible. The ventral arc, the subpubic contour, and th...
متن کاملSexing Citizenship, Privatizing Sex
