It is important to understand the dynamics of malaria vectors in implementing malaria control strategies. Six villages were selected from different sections in the Three Gorges Reservoir for exploring the relationship between the climatic factors and its malaria vector density from 1997 to 2007 using the auto-regressive linear model regression method. The result indicated that both temperature ...

Prediction distribution is a basis for predictive inferences applied in many real world situations. The Bayesian approach under uniform prior employed this paper to derive the prediction Simultaneous Auto-regressive model with multivariate Student-t error distribution. Conditional on set of realized responses, single and future responses have univariate distributions respectively, whose degrees...

In this paper, we are estimating the pitch of telephone speech signal. We use different types of methods such us, Burg, Covariance, Fast Fourier transform, Modified Covariance, Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm or Eigen vector, Multi Taper method (MTM), Welch, and Yule Auto Regressive (Yule AR) , to estimate the PSD using signal processing tool box of MATLAB. The spectrum was con...

The creation of a parameterized stylized character involves careful selection numerous parameters, also known as the "avatar vectors" that can be interpreted by avatar engine. Existing unsupervised vector estimation methods auto-create avatars for users, however, often fail to work because domain gap between realistic faces and images. To this end, we propose SwiftAvatar, novel auto-creation fr...

Recursive subspace model identification (RSMI) has been developed for a decade. Most of RSMIs are only applied for open loop data. In this paper, we propose a new recursive subspace model identification which can be applied under open loop and closed loop data. The key technique of this derivation of the proposed algorithm is to bring the Vector Auto Regressive with eXogenous input (VARX) model...

A cross index is presented for using the improved selectivity offered by the Hung and Wensink (Nucl. Acids Res. 12, 1863-1874, 1984) method of partially filling in 5'-extensions produced by type II restriction endonucleases. After this treatment, DNA fragments which normally cannot be ligated to one another, can be joined providing that complementary cohesive ends have been generated. The uses ...

This paper proposes recursive least-squares (RLS) filtering and fixed-point smoothing algorithms with uncertain observations in linear discrete-time stochastic systems. The estimators require the information of the auto-covariance function in the semi-degenerate kernel form, the variance of white observation noise, the observed value and the probability that the signal exists in the observed va...

Rhythmic descriptors are often utilized for semantic music classification, such as genre recognition or tempo detection. Several algorithms dealing with the extraction of rhythmic information from music signals were proposed in literature. Most of them derive a so-called beat histogram by auto-correlating a representation of the temporal envelope of the music signal. To circumvent the problem o...

It is a well known fact that the nonlinearity of a function f on the n-dimensional vector space Vn is bounded from above by 2 n−1 − 2 1 2 n−1. In cryptographic practice, nonlinear functions are usually constructively obtained in such a way that they support certain mathematical or cryptographic requirements. Hence an important question is how to calculate the nonlinearity of a function when ext...
