Speech-based degree of sleepiness estimation is an emerging research problem. This paper investigates an end-to-end approach, where given raw waveform as input, a convolutional neural network (CNN) estimates at its output the degree of sleepiness. Within t ...
Every newly created object goes through several initialization states: starting from a state where all fields are uninitialized until all of them are assigned. Any operation on the object during its initialization process, which usually happens in the cons ...
Social practices are assumed to play an important role in the evolution of new teaching and learning methods. Teachers internalize knowledge developed in their communities through interactions with peers and experts while solving problems or co-creating ma ...
Oscillator system (1) comprising:- a substantially planar frame (3);- a first sub-oscillator (5), a second sub-oscillator (7), a third sub-oscillator (9), and a fourth sub-oscillator (11), each sub-oscillator (5, 7, 9, 11) comprising a substantially rigid ...
Quantum dots (QDs) formed in semiconductor nanowires (NWs) form a basis for studying interesting quantum phenomena and provide an exciting platform for various device applications, where in-depth understanding of the formation and electronic properties of ...
By the late nineteenth century, the scientific study of bedload transport had emerged as an offshoot of hydraulics and geomorphology. Since then, computing bedload transport rates has attracted considerable attention, but whereas other environmental scienc ...
