In this paper, we propose a novel scheme for recognition of handwritten numerals for a regional language Odia of the Indian continent. Additional attempts have also been made to implement this scheme for recognition of handwritten numerals of two other languages namely, Bangla and English. Thus, the proposed scheme has been generalised to three different languages. Three variants of time series...

Prompt optical emission from the γ-ray burst of GRB 041219A has been reported by Vestrand et al. (2005). The facts that the fast rise of optical emission simultaneous with the dominant γ-ray pulse, and a tight correlation with the prompt γ-ray emission have been displayed. These indicate that the prompt optical emission and γ-ray emission would naturally have a common origin. We then propose th...

An adaptive nonparametric method is proposed for stable real-time detection of seismoacoustic sources in multichannel C-OTDR systems with a significant number of channels. This method guarantees given upper boundaries for probabilities of Type I and Type II errors. Properties of the proposed method are rigorously proved. The results of practical applications of the proposed method in a real C-O...

Given a score representation and a recorded performance of the same piece of music, the task of score-performance synchronization is to temporally align musical sections such as bars specified by the score to temporal sections in the performance. Most of the previous approaches assume that the score and the performance to be synchronized globally agree with regard to the overall musical structu...

An experimental study over the optical response of thin MoS2 films grownby chemical bath deposition (CBD) method is presented. As two important factors, theeffect of bath temperature and growth time are considered on the photocurrentgeneration in the grown samples. The results show that increasing the growth time leadsto better optical response and higher difference betw...

Prompt optical emission from the γ-ray burst of GRB 041219A has been reported by Vestrand et al. There was a fast rise of optical emission simultaneous with the dominant γ-ray pulse, and a tight correlation with the prompt γ-ray emission has been displayed. These indicate that the prompt optical emission and γ-ray emission would naturally have a common origin. We propose that this optical compo...

The report proposes a new method for multichannel classification of C-OTDR signals. The method is based on the use of an ensemble of SVM-classifiers and it is robust to the types of environments of seismoacoustic signals propagation. The report presents the results of practical application of the proposed method in systems for remote monitoring of extended (distributed) objects.

Spurred by the advent of disk-based recording systems and the nearly explosive increase of internet bandwidth, eVLBI (Parsley et al. 2004) has undergone a remarkable development over the past two years. From ftp-based transfers of small amounts of astronomical data, through near real-time correlation (disk-buffered at the correlator), it has culminated this spring in the first three telescope r...

Due to the effect of aerosols present in the atmosphere on the satellite images, the study of the effect of local aerosols distribution on the satellite images is important. On the other hand, the study shows that the effect of aerosols on the greenhouse gases and consequently on climate is also undeniable and as a result, this puts more emphasize on the necessity of this study. Lack of informa...
