If the degree distribution is chosen carefully, the irregular LDPC codes can outperform the regular ones. In this paper, we proposed an LDPC coded BICM scheme in image transmission system to improve both efficiency and reliability. Simulation results show that LDPC codes are good coding schemes over fading channel in image communication with lower system complexity. Simultaneously, irregular co...

Regular and irregular inflections have become an important tool for understanding mechanisms underlying human language and cognition. Regular-irregular homophones such as rang the bell/ringed the city challenge connectionist models in which phonological information is the only input to the inflection process. Models of language that differentiate between lexicon and grammar attribute these infl...

Within the domain of inflectional morpho-syntax, differential processing of regular and irregular forms has been found in healthy speakers and in aphasia. One view assumes that irregular forms are retrieved as full entities, while regular forms are compiled on-line. An alternative view holds that a single mechanism oversees regular and irregular forms. Arabic offers an opportunity to study this...

A novel discrete singular convolution (DSC)  formulation  is  presented for the seepage analysis in irregular geometric porous media. The DSC is a new promising numerical approach which has been recently applied to solve several engineering problems. For a medium with regular geometry, realizing of the DSC for the seepage analysis is straight forward. But DSC implementation for a medium with ir...

We investigated selective impairments in the production of regular and irregular past tense by examining language performance and lesion sites in a sample of twelve stroke patients. A disadvantage in regular past tense production was observed in six patients when phonological complexity was greater for regular than irregular verbs, and in three patients when phonological complexity was closely ...

What are the computational and representational bases of the mental lexicon of words, and of the rules of grammar which productively combine lexical forms into larger words, phrases and sentences? ‘‘Dual-system’’ theories posit that lexical forms with non-compositional (arbitrary) sound-meaning pairings are stored in memory, whereas compositional structures are subserved by a distinct rule-proc...

Regular and irregular sampling theorems for multivariate shift invariant subspaces are studied. We give a characterization of regular points and an irregular sampling theorem, which covers many known results, e.g., Kadec’s 1/4-theorem. We show that some subspaces may not have a regular point. We also present a reconstruction algorithm which is slightly different from the known one but is more e...
