The magnetic susceptibility of the diluted magnetic Lu22xGdxO3 ~x50.06, 0.10, 0.22, 0.40, 1.00, 1.40, 1.80! was measured in the temperature range 1.7–295 K. The inverse susceptibility changes slope to a smaller value below 2.2 K for the samples with x<0.40. In the cubic Lu0.20Gd1.80O3 the slope increases below 2.8 K. These changes are attributed to the large difference in susceptibility for two...

This paper discusses an HMM-based Mandarin telephone speech recognition method for implementing a prototype system of automatic telephone number directory service. It adopted the GPD/MCE training algorithm to train the HMM models for 100 final-dependent syllable initials and 40 syllable finals. The SBR method was used to compensate the speaker and channel effects. Besides, an RNN-based pre-clas...
