Spectro-temporal modulations (STMs) of the sound convey timbre and rhythm information so that they are intuitively useful for automatic music genre classification. The STMs are usually extracted from a time-frequency representation of the acoustic signal. In this paper, we investigate the efficacy of two kinds of STM features, the Gabor features and the rate-scale (RS) features, selectively ext...

Many common workloads rely on arrays as a basic data structure on top of which they build more complex behavior. Others use them because they are a natural representation for their problem domains. Software Transactional Memory (STM) has been proposed as a new concurrency control mechanism that simplifies concurrent programming. Yet, most STM implementations have no special representation for a...

The programmability and the integration of biochemical processing protocols are addressed for DNA computing using photochemical and microsystem techniques. A magnetically switchable selective transfer module (STM) is presented which implements the basic sequence-specific DNA filtering operation under constant flow. Secondly, a single steady flow system of STMs is presented which solves an arbit...

We introduce the notion of permissiveness in transactional memories (TM). Intuitively, a TM is permissive if it never aborts a transaction when it need not. More specifically, a TM is permissive with respect to a safety property p if the TM accepts every history that satisfies p. Permissiveness, like safety and liveness, can be used as a metric to compare TMs. We illustrate that it is impractic...

In the transportation sector, Smart Ticket Machines (STMs) have arisen as automated ticketing options that provide ease and effectiveness for both users operators. The research articles on smart ticket machines analysed in this review of literature are synthesised, including topics like user acceptability, implementation case studies, technology, security, accessibility, data analytics, interac...

In Cross Language Information Retrieval (CLIR), query terms can be translated to the document language using Bilingual Dictionaries (BDs) or Statistical Translation Models (STMs). Combining different translation resources can also be used to improve the performance. Unfortunately, the most studies on combining multiple resources use simple methods such as linear combination. In this paper, we d...

We present the design and performance of an active mechanical noise cancellation scanning tunneling microscope (STM). This system features two key parts: a "twin-tip" scanner and an active mechanical noise cancellation algorithm. The twin-tip scanner functions as two independent STMs which share nearly the same mechanical transfer function, allowing both STMs to sense nearly identical backgroun...

Single-task models (STMs) struggle to learn sophisticated representations from a finite set of annotated data. Multitask learning approaches overcome these constraints by simultaneously training various associated tasks, thereby generic among tasks sharing some layers the neural network architecture. Because this, multitask (MTMs) have better generalization properties than those single-task lea...

In the modern era of multi-core systems, main aim is to utilize cores properly. This utilization can be done by concurrent programming. But developing a flawless and well-organized program difficult. Software Transactional Memory Systems (STMs) are convenient programming interface which assist programmer access shared memory concurrently without worrying about consistency issues. Many STMs avai...
