A moderately deep and rather wide artificial neural net is applied in phoneme recognition of noisy speech. The net is formed by first estimating posterior probabilities of phonemes in 21 band-limited streams covering the whole speech spectrum. These 21 band-limited streams are subdivided into three seven band-limited stream subsets, by differently sub-sampling the original 21 band-limited strea...

A prototype multi-stream system with a performance monitor for stream selection is proposed to recognize speech in unknown noise. The speech signal is decomposed into seven band-limited streams. Posterior probabilities of phonemes are estimated by a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) in each of these band-limited streams. Estimated posterior vectors of all 127 combinations (processing streams) of the...

Current database management system techniques are insuucient to support the management of multimedia data owing to their time-sampled nature. The extension of database systems to support multimedia applications thus requires new mechanisms to ensure the synchronized presentation of multimedia data streams. In order to exibly and eeciently present multimedia data streams to users, media streams ...

We present a new multi-channel integration method and its implementation in the multi-purpose event generator MadEvent, which is based on MadGraph. Given a process, MadGraph automatically identifies all the relevant subprocesses, generates both the amplitudes and the mappings needed for an efficient integration over the phase space, and passes them to MadEvent. As a result, a process-specific, ...

The importance of microbial activity to ecosystem function in aquatic ecosystems is well established, but microbial diversity has been less frequently addressed. This review and synthesis of 100s of published studies on stream microbial diversity shows that factors known to drive ecosystem processes, such as nutrient availability, hydrology, metal contamination, contrasting land-use and tempera...

The aim of this work was to design a quick and reliable method for the evaluation and classification of wastewater streams into treatable and non-treatable effluents for reuse/recycling. Different chemometric methods were used for this purpose handling the enormous amount of data, and additionally to find any hidden information, which would increase our knowledge and improve the classification....

Streams, or infinite sequences, are infinite objects of a very simple type, yet they have a rich theory partly due to their ubiquity in mathematics and computer science. Stream differential equations are a coinductive method for specifying streams and stream operations, and their theory has been developed in many papers over the past two decades. In this paper we present a survey of the many re...

Most of current systems which play video data produced remotely in a real time manner transfer video packets without retransmission. However, corrupted packets can be retransmitted if the time of playing is delayed for the fixed amount time. This paper proposes a new reliable real time protocol, based on SSCOP for ATM networks, which retransmits the only corrupted packets which reach the receiv...

The emergence of dynamic information sources – including sensor networks – has led to large streams of real-time data on the Web. Research studies suggest, these dynamic networks have created more data in the last three years than in the entire history of civilization, and this trend will only increase in the coming years [1]. With this coming data explosion, real-time analytics software must e...
