Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTone Question of Tree Based Context Clustering for Hidden Markov Model Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In HMM-based Thai speech synthesis, tone is an important issue that brings about the intelligibility of the synthesized speech. Tone distortion resulted from imbalance of the training data should be appropriately treated. Approach: This study described an HMM-based speech synthesis system for Thai language. In the system, spectrum, pitch and state duration are modeled simultaneously in a unified … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 9 Nov 2010 · 6,820 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards the Development of Speaker-Dependent and Speaker-Independent Hidden Markov Model-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Tone distortion in Thai languages can deteriorate not only the intelligibility of speech but also its naturalness. Therefore, the correctness of tone must be carefully taken into account in continuous speech synthesis. The preliminary work confronted this problem when applying HMM-based speech synthesis to Thai. Approach: This study presented a study on speaker-dependent and speaker-independent Hidden Markov Model … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Logic Controller Based Three-phase Shunt Active Filter for Line Harmonics ReductionC. Sharmeela, M. R. Mohan, G. Uma, J. BaskaranHarmonic distortion is a form of electrical noise. It is a superposition of signals, which are of multiples of fundamental frequency. Proliferation of large power electronic systems results in increased harmonic distortion. Harmonic distortion results in reduction of power quality and system stability. This paper presents fuzzy control applicable for active power filter for three-phase systems, which are comprised of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,107 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterpretation of Double Langmuir Probe I-V Characteristics at Different Ionospheric Plasma TemperaturesShankar BhattaraiWhere the plasma potential is fluctuating significantly, Single Langmuir probe method is not relevant to determine the plasma characteristics. This weakness was overcome by the development of the floating double probe. A distortion of the probe characteristics due to varying potential is eliminated, while the whole probe system is floating. This supports probe operation also in discharges with strongly varying … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2017 · 8,597 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstraints Optimization for Minimizing Stretch in Bounded-ParameterizationAnuwat Dechvijankit, Hiroshi Nagahashi, Kota AokiIn a mesh parameterization process that generates one-to-one mapping information between a three-dimensional surface and a two-dimensional plane, we need to set some constraint positions in the solving system to define a specific location or size of the mapping plane. In this study, we will discuss how to perform a bounded-parameterization that minimizes distortion based on changing of constraints setting … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 9 · 26 Nov 2016 · 7,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRegularization Method for Solving Denoising and Inpainting Task Using Stacked Sparse Denoising AutoencodersPavel Vyacheslavovich Skribtsov, Sergey Olegovich SurikovThis article offers a regularization method for training stacked sparse denoising autoencoders aimed at designing model description of objects used for image denoising and inpainting. The offered regularization method allows increasing the generalizing ability of model description, which results in greater stability of denoising methods using it with regard to variation of the noise type. This makes the offered method … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2016 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNature of Price Adjustment and Market Integration among Stages in Cassava Value Addition Chain in Southern NigeriaSunday B. Akpan, Glory E. Emmanuel, Inimfon V. PatrickAgricultural price behaviour in the long run depends on several factors ranging from the socio-economic, environmental and political environment among others. This study tested for the long run price adjustment mechanism between the producer price of raw cassava in the rural market and retailed price of its derivatives in urban market in the Southern region of Nigeria. The study was … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 14 Oct 2015 · 7,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Certain Subclass of Meromorphically Multivalent Analytic Functions with Negative CoefficientsM.Z. Ahmad, Hiba F. Al-Janaby, Rabha W. IbrahimThe paper aims to introduce a certain subclass S*g(A,B,α,p,j) of the class Σ*(p) of meromorphically multivalent functions with negative coefficients, defined by using the definitions of Hadamard product and subordination for two functions belong to the class Σ*(p). We first investigate the geometric characterization property, giving the coefficient estimates for functions in the class S*g(A,B,α,p,j). We also obtain the distortion … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 9 · 2 Oct 2015 · 6,349 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHARMONICS REDUCTION IN FRONT END RECTIFER OF UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLIES WITH ACTIVE CURRENT INJECTIONT. Chandrasekar, B. Justus Rabi, A. KannanHarmonics are the by-products of modern electronics devices so it is necessary to mitigate the harmonics and offer techniques to mitigation of harmonics. It is greatly hampered by a three phase rectifier used as a front-end ac-to-dc converter in many systems. High power factor is achieved by injecting high-frequency currents into the three-phase rectifier. This study presents the high power … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2014 · 6,803 accessesView PDFCite
