Tool vibration occurs widely in various machining operations and is one of the main factors affecting quality stability. Light intensity-modulation optical fiber displacement sensor has distinctive advantages greatly potential tool measurement. In order to overcome shortages conventional reflective light intensity modulation bundle small measurement range or low sensitivity, a novel differentia...

We present a tunable single-frequency CW Ti:sapphire laser with intensity noise manipulation. The manipulation of the laser intensity noise is realized by varying the frequency of the modulation signal loaded on the electrodes of an intracavity electro-optic etalon. A lithium niobate (LiNbO3) crystal is used to act as the electro-optic etalon, and its electro-optic effect is utilized...

Recent studies have shown that the auditory corticofugal system modulates and improves signal processing in the frequency, time and spatial domains. In this study, we examine corticofugal modulation of rate-intensity functions of inferior collicular (IC) neurons of the big brown bat, Eptesicus fuscus, by electrical stimulation in the primary auditory cortex (AC). Cortical electrical stimulation...

It is well accepted that pain is a multidimensional experience, but little is known of how the brain represents these dimensions. We used positron emission tomography (PET) to indirectly measure pain-evoked cerebral activity before and after hypnotic suggestions were given to modulate the perceived intensity of a painful stimulus. These techniques were similar to those of a previous study in wh...

In conventional functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) analysis, activation is often inferred by examining only the intensity modulation of blood-oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) signal of each voxel in isolation or in small, local clusters. However, as has been recently demonstrated, activation can in fact be detected by examining the spatial modulation of the BOLD distribution within a reg...

For scaling up low resolution multispectral images (LRMIs) with high resolution panchromatic image (HRPI), intensity-hue-saturation (IHS) can produce satisfactory spatial enhancement but usually introduces spectral distortion in the fused high resolution multispectral images (HRMIs). In this paper, to minimize this problem, we present a generalized intensity modulation (GIM) by extending the IH...
