Stress Detection from Speech Using Spectral Slope Measurements
2018
Automatic detection of emotional stress is an active research domain, which has recently drawn increasing attention, mainly in the fields of computer science, linguistics, and medicine. In this study, stress is automatically detected by employing speech-derived features. Related studies utilize features such as overall intensity, MFCCs, Teager Energy Operator, and pitch. The present study proposes a novel set of features based on the spectral tilt of the glottal source and of the speech signal itself. The proposed features rely on the Probability Density Function of the estimated spectral slopes, and consist of the three most probable slopes from the glottal source, as well as the correspon…
Quantum Nekhoroshev Theorem for Quasi-Periodic Floquet Hamiltonians
1998
A quantum version of Nekhoroshev estimates for Floquet Hamiltonians associated to quasi-periodic time dependent perturbations is developped. If the unperturbed energy operator has a discrete spectrum and under finite Diophantine conditions, an effective Floquet Hamiltonian with pure point spectrum is constructed. For analytic perturbations, the effective time evolution remains close to the original Floquet evolution up to exponentially long times. We also treat the case of differentiable perturbations.
Nonlocally-induced (quasirelativistic) bound states: Harmonic confinement and the finite well
2015
Nonlocal Hamiltonian-type operators, like e.g. fractional and quasirelativistic, seem to be instrumental for a conceptual broadening of current quantum paradigms. However physically relevant properties of related quantum systems have not yet received due (and scientifically undisputable) coverage in the literature. In the present paper we address Schr\"{o}dinger-type eigenvalue problems for $H=T+V$, where a kinetic term $T=T_m$ is a quasirelativistic energy operator $T_m = \sqrt{-\hbar ^2c^2 \Delta + m^2c^4} - mc^2$ of mass $m\in (0,\infty)$ particle. A potential $V$ we assume to refer to the harmonic confinement or finite well of an arbitrary depth. We analyze spectral solutions of the per…
Effect of relativistic kinematics on the stability of multiquarks
2021
We discuss whether the bound nature of multiquark states in quark models could benefit from relativistic effects on the kinetic energy operator. For mesons and baryons, relativistic corrections to the kinetic energy lead to lower energies, and thus call for a retuning of the parameters of the model. For multiquark states, as well as their respective thresholds, a comparison is made of the results obtained with non-relativistic and relativistic kinetic energy. It is found that the binding energy is lower in the relativistic case. In particular, $QQ\bar q\bar q$ tetraquarks with double heavy flavor become stable for a larger ratio of the heavy to light quark masses; and the all-heavy tetraqua…
