Recently recognition of emotions became very important in the field of speech and/or speaker recognition. This paper is dedicated to experimental investigation of best acoustic features obtained for purpose of gender-dependent speaker recognition from emotional speech. Four feature sets LPC (Linear Prediction Coefficients), LPCC (Linear Prediction Cepstral Coefficients), MFCC (Melfrequency Ceps...

The thermal rate coefficients and kinetic isotope effects have been calculated using ring polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) for the prototypical reactions between methane and several hydrogen isotopes (H, D, and Mu). The excellent agreement with the theoretical rate coefficients of the H + CH4 reaction obtained previously from a multi-configuration time-dependent Hartree calculation on the same...

This paper presents the heat transfer coefficients measured during HC-290 (Propane) vaporisation inside a brazed plate heat exchanger: the effects of heat flux, saturation temperature (pressure) and outlet conditions are investigated. The heat transfer coefficients show weak sensitivity to saturation temperature (pressure) and great sensitivity to heat flux and outlet conditions. The saturated ...

We have used the ring-polymer molecular dynamics method to calculate approximate Kubo-transformed velocity autocorrelation functions and self-diffusion coefficients for low-pressure liquid para-hydrogen at temperatures of 25 and 14 K. The resulting diffusion coefficients are shown to be consistent with experimental shear viscosities and the established finite-size relation D(L) approximately = ...

We describe a new filtering approach in the wavelet domain for image denoising and compression, based on the projections of details subbands coefficients (resultants of the splitting procedure, typical in wavelet domain) onto the approximation subband coefficients (much less noisy). The new algorithm is called Projection Onto Approximation Coefficients (POAC). As a result of this approach, only...

Gas-to-RTIL (room-temperature ionic liquid) partition coefficients have been compiled for 592 different solute-RTIL combinations. These partition coefficients were converted into water-to-RTIL partition coefficients using the corresponding gas-to-water partition coefficients. Both sets of partition coefficients were analyzed using the Abraham solvation parameter model with cation-specific and a...
