Several aspects related to production, as well as natural perception of speech, have gradually been incorporated to automatic speech recognition systems. Nevertheless, the set of speech prosodic characteristics has not been used for the time being in an explicit way in the recognition process itself. In this work, an analysis of the prosody’s three most important parameters: energy, fundamental...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) molecular weights (6000, 12000 and 20000) as solid dispersion (SD) carriers on the dissolution behavior of simvastatin. SDs with various drug : carrier ratios were prepared by solvent method and evaluated for dissolution rate. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spe...

Recently, system level approach has been proposed as a novel design tool for large-scale cyber physical systems in the discrete time LTI framework. The main idea of new paradigm is shift from constructing and parametrizing desired optimal controller to parametrization achievable closed loop behaviours (closed shape). Then, synthesised data way that keep imposed structural constraints intact. In...

Two classes of thalamic nuclei project to either middle layers or upper layers, including layer 1, of the neocortex, and are referred to as 'specific' and 'nonspecific' nuclei, respectively. The electrophysiological properties of the nonspecific nuclei have not been investigated, largely because of the paucity of in vitro slice preparations containing intact nonspecific pathways. In this study,...

We propose an exact model of anyon ground states including higher Landau levels, and use it to obtain fractionally quantized Hall at filling fractions $\nu=p/(p(m-1)+1)$ with $m$ odd, from integer $\nu=p$ through adiabatic localization magnetic flux. For appropriately chosen two-body potential interactions, the energy gap remains intact during process. The construction hence establishes existen...

Moment resisting frames as one of the conventional lateral load resisting systems in buildings suffer from some limitations including code limitations on minimum span-to-depth ratio to ensure the formation of plastic hinges with adequate length at beam ends. According to seismic codes, in ordinary steel moment resisting frames the minimum span-to-depth ratios should be limited to 5 and in speci...
