People with hearing or speaking disabilities are deprived of the benefits of conventional speech recognition technology because it is based on acoustic signals. Recent research has focused on silent speech recognition systems that are based on the motions of a speaker's vocal tract and articulators. Because most silent speech recognition systems use contact sensors that are very inconvenient to...

in this paper, the dual area vector of a closed dual spherical curve is kinematically generatedand the dual steineer vector of a motion are extensively studied by the methods of differential geometry.jacobi’s theorems, known for real curves, are investigated for closed dual curves. the closed trajectorysurfaces generated by an oriented line are fixed in a moving rigid body in ir3 , in which the...

A growing population is driving automatization in agricultural industry to strive for more productive arable land. Being part of this process, this work is aimed to investigate the possibility to implement sensor-based automation in a particular system called FrontEnd Loader, which is a lifting arm that is commonly mounted at the front of a tractor. Two main tasks are considered here, namely El...

In visual control of motion the performance of the system is typically tied to the speed at which the visual information can be processed. Visual processing is unusual in that the data is not the information and in some sense the quality of the information can often be improved through extended processing (e.g. the resolution). A visual sensor tracking an object will only provide sporadic obser...

The response properties and receptive field organization of 106 LSA neurons were investigated in pretrigeminal preparations using moving dark and bright stimuli with particular reference to the dynamic and static structure of receptive fields. About 61percent neurons revealed equal sensitivity to the motions of dark and bright stimuli. A majority of them had an ON-OFF static structure of recept...
