Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThai Dialects and Structural Modeling with NoisesSuphattharachai Chomphan, Numchok Budwong, Sirarot PreechatanapojFundamental Frequency (F0) conveys the prosodic information of the human speech. The modeling of the dialects’ F0 in a particular language is vital issue that should be taken into account. Four main dialects are spoken in different regions of Thailand including central, north, northeast and south regions. Another important issue is the environmental noises which is often be perceived in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2013 · 6,619 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStructural Modeling of Fundamental Frequency contour for Thai TonesSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In Thai, tone is an essential feature of a prosodic syllable to identify the meanings of that syllable or that part of word. To generate the tonal speech with natural prosody, it is needed to manage the fundamental frequency (F0) of the speech appropriately. A successful approach of structural modeling from Mandarin Chinese has been adapted to model … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 25 Aug 2012 · 7,122 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRestructuring and Expanding Technology Acceptance Model Structural Equation Model and Bayesian ApproachMargaretha Ari Aggorowati, Nur Iriawan, Suhartono, Hasyim GautamaProblem statement: Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is one of models that analyze user behavior to accept and use a new technology. SEM is the most statistical method which use in TAM analysis that provides the estimation strength of all hypothesized relationship between variables in a theoretical model. Consider to employing the standard SEM in TAM analysis which expected large data, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 10 Feb 2012 · 8,359 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStructural and Evolutionary Analysis of PARPs in D. discoideumA. Mehadvi Kawal, Hina A. Mir, Chethan Kumar Ramniklal et al.Problem statement: Dictyostelium discoideum, a unicellular eukaryote, exhibits multicellularity upon nutrient starvation, making it a better model for developmental studies and for the study of various signal transduction pathways. The most felicitous point of interest is that many of its genes show high degree of similarity to vertebrate genes. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), a ubiquitous and abundant nuclear protein, has … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDeterminants of Attitude towards Information and Communication Technology Usage among Rural Administrators in using Structural Equation ModelingJeffrey Lawrence D'Silva, Bahaman Abu Samah, Hayrol Azril Mohamed Shaffril et al.Problem statement: Village Development and Security Committee members play a vital role in enhancing the village development programs in Malaysia and ICT is deemed as an important mechanism to further boost rural development. But do the rural community in Malaysia especially their leaders have a positive attitude towards it? Hence, this study is designed to identify the constructs that significantly … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStructural Modeling of Fundamental Frequency Contour for Thai Expressive SpeechSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Appropriate modeling of fundamental Frequency (F0) contour for speech is a key factor to preserve the quality of speech prosody. One successful approach has been conducted for tonal language of Mandarin Chinese. It is based on the assumption that the behavioral characteristics of vocal-fold elongation in vibration could be approximated by those of a simple forced vibrating system. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Sectoral Efficiency Analysis of Malaysian Stock Exchange Under Structural BreakChin Wen CheongWe investigated the weak-form market efficiency of nine daily sectoral indices of Malaysian stock market between 1996 and 2006. The structural break unit root tests evidenced most of the price indices characterized by mean-reverting process that violated the random walk process. These empirical results were in sharp contrast with the traditional unit-root test which ignored the economic crisis and currency … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRevisiting the Unit Root Hypothesis and Structural Break: Asia and Emerging Economies Foreign Exchange MarketsChristopher Gan, Sirimon Treepongkaruna, Hue Hwa Au YongThis study examines the stationary of ten Asian and for emerging Foreign Exchange (FX) rates during the 1990s. The paper employs the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) unit root test to the following FX rates: Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) Japanese Yen (JPY), South Korean won (KRW) new Taiwan dollar (TWN), Chinese Renminbl (CHR), Indonesia Rupiah (IDR), Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), Singapore Dollar (SGD), … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 6,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Study on Fabrication and Structural Characterization of PbS Thin FilmsMustika Wati, Kamsul AbrahaPbS thin films are fabricated from 99.9% PbS powder on glass substrates using the vacuum evaporation method. Some of the samples are then treated in an advanced process called annealing. Samples are annealed in temperatures of 80, 100, 120 and 150°C for two h. Characterization using an X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) resulted in values of lattice constant of the films ranging … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 20 Nov 2017 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEstimation and Analysis of Output Gap: An Application of Structural Vector Autoregression and Hodrick-Prescott-FmethodsSaeed Dehghan Khavari, Seyed Hossein MirjaliliIn this study we examined output gap in the Iranian economy. The main question of the study is that how much is seasonal output gap in Iranian Economy and which factor affects gap variation. The other question is that whether using HP-F as a statistical based method for estimating output gap, provide different result than using SVAR as theory based … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 27 Aug 2012 · 7,896 accessesView PDFCite
