We present an internship program focused on project-based learning designed to introduce students to robotics engineering utilizing the iRobot Create platform. Our aim is to provide instructors and mentors with a set of projects with an appropriate level of complexity so as to stimulate the interest of the students while providing them a sense of accomplishment. We provide a detailed descriptio...

This paper presents: a multi-level concept to generate the speech rhythm in the Dresden TTS system for German (DreSS). The rhythm control includes the phrase, the syllabic and the phonemic level. The concept allows the alternative use of rulebased or statistical, but also data driven methods on these levels. To create the rules and to train a neural network, a new speech corpus from original sp...

Abstract Shaping events at the microlevel of rhythm is an important aspect many groove-based musics. In present study, we explore interconnectedness musical parameters such as timing, attack shape, timbre and relative intensity in creating groove through investigating musicians producers’ discourse five genres (jazz, samba, electronic dance music, hip-hop traditional Scandinavian fiddle music)....

what we mean by alliteration of homogeneous words is that such alliteration is based on two or more lexical basis that is conspicuously coordinative and homogeneous with each other. they are homogeneous in that their form, structure, and tone, are similar. we can name two homogeneous words, two bases of homonym. it is evident that such words, though homogeneous from one hand, should necessarily...

As many other progressive fields of scientific inquiry, the study of circadian rhythms has experienced enormous growth in the recent past. From fungi and plants to birds and mammals, as well as from molecules and cells to organisms and populations, research on circadian rhythms has advanced at full speed into the 21st century. Circadian rhythm research is currently published in prestigious gene...
