Despite recent interest in continuous prediction of dimensional emotions, the dynamical aspect of emotions has received less attention in automated systems. This paper investigates how emotion change can be effectively incorporated to improve continuous prediction of arousal and valence from speech. Significant correlations were found between emotion ratings and their dynamics during investigat...

Despite the remarkable improvement of hardware and network technology, the inevitable delay from a user's command action to a system response is still one of the most crucial influence factors in user experiences (UXs). Especially for a web video service, an initial delay from click action to video start has significant influences on the quality of experience (QoE). The initial delay of a syste...

A filter for universal real-time prediction of band-limited signals is presented. The filter consists of multiple time-delayed feedback terms in order to accomplish anticipatory coupling, which again leads to a negative group delay for frequencies in the baseband. The universality of the filter arises from its property that it does not rely on a specific model of the signal. Specifically, as lo...

Dispatch reliability is the key parameters to reflect the overall reliability of civil aircraft, and it is also the important technical parameters needs to be considered in the original design of civil aircraft. According to the actual delay rate data of airlines, combined with the relationship between delay rate and dispatch reliability, from the perspective of civil aircraft design, author fi...

Highly variable weather conditions, especially the rapidly changing water vapor distribution, bias the interpretation of interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) images. Any change of atmospheric condition is reflected as differential propagation delay in the InSAR images, which is difficult to distinguish from the real ground motion. Moreover, for areas which cover a wide range of alti...
