This paper shows methods for defining and rendering Sound Level of Detail (SLOD) for audiographic scenes using corpus-based granular synthesis. We introduce three levels of detail for sound (individual events, statistical texture, background din), to define a proximity profile around the listener. The smooth transition between the levels is assured alternatively by statistical modeling or audio...

Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) is an abundant but poorly understood pool of N in many ecosystems. We assessed DON cycling in a N-limited headwater forest stream via whole-ecosystem additions of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and labile dissolved organic matter (DOM), hydrologic transport and biogeochemical modeling, and laboratory experiments with native sediments. We sampled surface and ...

The ductal intraepithelial neoplasia (DIN) classification which proposes new approaches to the diagnosis, terminology and differential diagnosis of intraductal proliferative lesions of the breast was applied to a series of female patients comprising C-erbB2 oncogene expression which may serve as an adjunct to the morphology by immunohistochemistry. The study was performed using the data of 94 p...

Pe bza optimizarii detectorului fotodioda cu avalansa din sistemul EmiScopeTM utilizat pentru rezolvarea temporala a fotonilor, am realizat reducerea cu un factor mai mare de 2.5 a timpului de achizitie a semnalului emis în infrarosu de un tranzisttorCMOS. Efectul nedorit al pulsuirlor de zgomot generate de fotodioda la durate aleatorii fata de semnalul detectat a fost redus prin utilizarea înt...

Recently, a new ISO standard for loudness of arbitrary sounds ISO 532-1 (1) was proposed for the revision of ISO 532:1975 section 2 (method B) (2). It is based on DIN 45631/A1:2010 (3), which includes the widely used standard DIN 45631:1991 (4) for stationary sounds as a special case. ISO 532-1 eliminates uncertainties of existing standards by strictly defining the complete procedure of loudnes...

An experiment was conducted to find out variation in isolated Rhizoctonia solani based on radial mycelial growth and sclerotial production. Five isolates of Rhizoctonia solani representing five clusters group were selected and were grown at different levels of temperature and pH on potato dextrose agar (PDA). It was observed that optimum temperature and pH for growth and scierotial production v...

While studies of cerebellar involvement in learning and memory have described plasticity within the cerebellum, its role in acquisition of plasticity elsewhere in the CNS is largely unexplored. This study set out to determine whether the cerebellum is needed for acquisition of the spinal cord plasticity that underlies operantly conditioned decrease in the H-reflex, the electrical analog of the ...
