چکیده

The acoustic coupling between the voice production system and the vocal tract has a significant influence on the production of voice. In this study, the coupling effect was represented using the acoustic pressure difference across the glottis, which is capable of inducing a flow, and the mean acoustic pressure in the glottis, which acts as a driving force for the vocal folds. These specific acoustic pressures were then interpreted in the frequency domain in the form of frequency responses, and incorporated into a model of the voice production system. In this framework, we were able to test the effect of source-filter coupling by filtering frequency responses. Numerical results revealed that these responses and the input impedance of the vocal tract both exhibited a dominant peak around 4 kHz. In addition, voice production simulations revealed that this high-frequency peak has a significant influence on the spatio-temporal pattern of glottal volume flow and vocal fold movements.

An Algorithm for Modeling and Interpretation of Seismoelectric Data

Generally speaking, seismoelectric modeling is a prospecting method based on seismic and electromagnetic waves, in which waves generated by a seismic source at the boundary of the two environments generate a relative fluid-solid motion formed as a result of antagonism between the elastic properties of the environment with the saturated fluid. This research has as its objective, a study of the e...

Time-Varying Frequency Fading Channel Tracking In OFDM-PLNC System, Using Kalman Filter

Physical-layer network coding (PLNC) has the ability to drastically improve the throughput of multi-source wireless communication systems. In this paper, we focus on the problem of channel tracking in a Decode-and-Forward (DF) OFDM PLNC system. We proposed a Kalman Filter-based algorithm for tracking the frequency/time fading channel in this system. Tracking of the channel is performed in the t...

Deep Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Image Classification via Low Rank Representation Learning

Domain adaptation is a powerful technique given a wide amount of labeled data from similar attributes in different domains. In real-world applications, there is a huge number of data but almost more of them are unlabeled. It is effective in image classification where it is expensive and time-consuming to obtain adequate label data. We propose a novel method named DALRRL, which consists of deep ...
