Lemma A.1 Consider two independent samples of sizes n0 and n1 from continuous distributions F0 and F1 with common support: X0,1, . . . , X0,n0 ∼ i.i.d. F0 and X1,1, . . . , X1,n1 ∼ i.i.d. F1. Let N = n0 + n1. Assume that the support of F0 and F1 is an interval inside [0, 1]. Let f0 and f1 be the densities of F0 and F1, respectively. Suppose that for any x in the supports of F0 and F1, f1(x)/f0(...

We prove a general result on the factorization of matrix-valued analytic functions. We deduce that if (E0, E1) and (F0, F1) are interpolation pairs with dense intersections, then under some conditions on the spaces E0, E1, F0 and F1, we have [E0⊗̂F0, E1⊗̂F1]θ = [E0, E1]θ⊗̂[F0, F1]θ, 0 < θ < 1. We find also conditions on the spaces E0, E1, F0 and F1 , so that the following holds [E0 ∨ ⊗F0, E1 ∨ ⊗F1...

We presents prosodic cues, i.e. duration, average F0 (M-F0), F0 slope (D-F0) and spectral center of gravity (CoG), to the functions acknowledgment, continuer, disagreement, surprise, enthusiasm and uncertainty as expressed via short vocal feedback by a professional voiceover artist. The post-hoc tests showed that most functions were expressed with a rather contrastive prosody and in a consisten...

Speech intelligibility in multitalker settings is challenging for most cochlear implant (CI) users. One possibility this limitation the suboptimal representation of vocal cues processing, such as fundamental frequency (F0), and tract length (VTL). Previous studies suggested that while F0 perception depends on spectrotemporal cues, VTL relies largely spectral cues. To investigate how smearing CI...

The article highlights the results of studying critical periods in phenological development oilseed radish varieties based on use basic indicators chlorophyll fluorescence induction curve (initial (F0), plateau zone (Fpl), maximum (Fm), and stationary (Fst). This complex was applied to plants three – ‘Rayduga’, ‘Zhuravka’ ‘Lybid’ with presentation for variety due similarity obtained data. phase...

 Abstract Background: Screening for patients at risk of renal scarring is a challenge in children with acute pyelonephritis (APN). Diuretic Tc-99m mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3) scintigraphy with zero time injection of furosemide (MAG3-F0) was observed to display focal parenchymal disorders. The advantages of MAG3 include: lower radiation dose and short duration of the test. The aim of this st...

This paper describes a method of utilizing an “F0 Reliability Field” (FRF), which we have proposed in our previous work, for estimating prosodic commands on F0 contour generation model. This FRF is the time-frequency representation of F0 likelihood, and an advantage of FRF is that it is not necessary to consider F0 errors that occur during an automatic F0 determination. Therefore, it is thought...

The general properties of the balance f12 = 2∙f(O) – f(H), as linear combination elemental balances: f1 f(H) for H and f2 f(O) O, formulated electrolytic systems, are presented. These properties/regularities inherently related to (LC) with charge (f0) other elemental/core balances fk f(Yk) (Yk ≠ H, O), expressed by, where multipliers dk involved oxidation numbers (ONs) elements in system questi...

This paper presents a systematic comparison of various measures of f0 range in female speakers of English and German. F0 range was analyzed along two dimensions, level (i.e., overall f0 height) and span (extent of f0 modulation within a given speech sample). These were examined using two types of measures, one based on "long-term distributional" (LTD) methods, and the other based on specific la...
