Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Ecotourism Travel Risk on Word-of-Mouth: Via Fuzzy Set PerspectiveFangyi Liu, Cheng-Hsi Fang, Hsueh-Lan Chan, Tom Meng-Yen LinBecause of the subjective cognition on Word-Of Mouth (WOM) influence and the fuzziness on perceived-risk judgment, perceived risk in WOM Influence is a venture variable, which cannot be measured directly. The aim of this study is to define the mathematics meaning of the influence and develop a new fuzzy set method to build the influence membership function to exactly measure … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 31 May 2013 · 7,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRestricted Domain Malay Speech Synthesizer Using Syntax-Prosody RepresentationSabrina Tiun, Rosni Abdullah, Tang Enya KongThe speech synthesis approach required in restricted domain speech application is a synthesizer that has high quality like the speech output of ‘slot-filler’ approach but have at least the least flexibility of the ‘genuine’ speech synthesizer. Thus, in this research study, we propose an alternative approach of creating a speech synthesizer to be used in a restricted domain speech application. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 14 Nov 2012 · 7,360 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance, Analysis of Filtering Schedule Using Deblocking Filter for the Reduction of Block Artifacts from MPEQ Compressed Document ImagesM. Anto Bennet, I. Jacob RaglendProblem statement: The visual effects of blocking artifacts can be reduce by using deblocking filter. Also with out smoothing the natural edges,the perceived quality of video sequence can be enchanced. This study propose a method to remove blocking artifacts in low bit-rate block based video coding. Approach: The proposed algorithm has two separate filtering modes, which are selected by pixel … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 8 Aug 2012 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSociocultural Characteristics of Psychological Education in the Context of Systemic-Anthropological ApproachIrina Loginova, Victoria Chupina, Yulya ZhivaevaProblem statement: The problem of moving from economic efficiency of the social one in the modern society is actualized. It is pointed out that the methodological basis for the solving questions of psychological education development are considered to be an anthropological psychology as a new scientific branch, which reflects the tendencies of development of psychology now a days. It is … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 26 Mar 2012 · 8,864 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCustomers’ Attitude towards Diminishing Partnership Home Financing in Islamic BankingDzuljastri Abdul Razak, Muhamad AbduhProblem statement: Diminishing partnership or musharakah mutanaqisah contract in home financing is recently introduced by the Islamic banking industry as an alternative of the bay bi’thaman ajil contract which has received many criticism from shariah scholars as mimicking conventional loan. This study aims to examine customers’ attitude upon diminishing partnership home financing and their intention to subscribe into the financing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2012 · 7,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImprovement of Tone Intelligibility for Average-Voice-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: Tone intelligibility in speech synthesis is an important attribute that should be taken into account. The tone correctness of the synthetic speech is degraded considerably in the average-voice-based HMM-based Thai speech synthesis. The tying mechanism in the decision tree based context clustering without appropriate criterion causes unexpected tone neutralization. Incorporation of the phrase intonation to the context clustering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 24 Jan 2012 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Tree Structure in Context Clustering Process of Hidden Markov Model-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In HMM-based Thai speech synthesis, the tone degradation due to the imbalance of training data of all tones. Some distortion of syllable duration is obviously noticeable when the system is trained with a small amount of data. These problems cause the decrement in naturalness and intelligibility of the synthesized speech. Approach: This study proposes an approach to improve … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 14 Jan 2012 · 6,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeech Compression for Noise-Corrupted Thai DialectsSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Dialects of Thai are quite different in the speaking styles. Environmental noises play an important role in corrupting the communication speech quality. Two factors affect the coded speech in the present speech communication. It is necessary to investigate how the two factors influence on the speech compression. Approach: In this study, the Multi-Pulse based Code Excited Linear Predictive … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 9 Jan 2012 · 7,238 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Application of Paraconsistent Artificial Neural Networks in Diagnosis of Alzheimer's DiseaseHelder F.S. Lopes, Jair M. Abe, Paulo A.M. Kanda et al.Problem statement: The visual analysis of Electroencephalogram (EEG) activity has shown useful as a complementary tool in Alzheimer Disease (AD diagnosis) when the diagnosis remains uncertain, in addition to be used in some clinical protocols. However, this analysis is subject to the inherent equipment imprecision, biological artifact, electrical records, and subjective physician interpretation of the visual analysis variation. The Artificial … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 6 Oct 2011 · 12,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeech Compression for Noise-Corrupted Thai Expressive SpeechSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In speech communication, speech coding aims at preserving the speech quality with lower coding bitrate. When considering the communication environment, various types of noises deteriorates the speech quality. The expressive speech with different speaking styles may cause different speech quality with the same coding method. Approach: This research proposed a study of speech compression for noise-corrupted Thai expressive … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 6 Aug 2011 · 6,230 accessesView PDFCite
