Variance Thresholded EMD-CCA Technique for Fast Eye Blink Artifacts Removal in EEG
2017
International audience; Eye blink (EB) artifacts generated during eye blinks often contaminate electroencephalogram (EEG) signal. Previously Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA), hybrid EMD-CCA were developed for EB artifact removal in EEG. However, EMD restricts the hybrid algorithm for real time implementation due to its slow processing nature, hence the algorithm has to be enhanced so that it can be a viable solution for real-time EB artifact removal. In this research work, to avoid applying EMD repetitively as and when EB artifacts occur, a method to use EMD minimally is approached. A suitable EB artifact region is detected through a variance thres…
Artificial intelligence for affective computing : an emotion recognition case study.
2020
This chapter provides an introduction on the benefits of artificial intelligence (Al) techniques for the field of affective computing, through a case study about emotion recognition via brain (electroencephalography EEG) signals. Readers are first pro-vided with a general description of the field, followed by the main models of human affect, with special emphasis to Russell's circumplex model and the pleasur-arousal-dominance (PAD) model. Finally, an AI-based method for the detection of affect elicited via multimedia stimuli is presented. The method combines both connectivity-and channel-based EEG features with a selection method that considerably reduces the dimensionality of the data and …
Channel aggregation with guard-band in D-OFDM based CRNs: Modeling and performance evaluation
2016
Channel aggregation (CA) techniques can offer flexible channel allocation and improve overall system performance in multi-channel cognitive radio networks (CRNs). Although many CA techniques have been proposed and studied, the impact of guard-band on CA for channel access has not been addressed in-depth. In this paper, we study the guard-band allocation mechanisms in discontinuous-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (D-OFDM) based CRNs, and investigate the impact of guard-band sharing on SU flows when CA is enabled. Continuous time Markov chain (CTMC) based models have been developed in order to investigate the stochastic behavior of PU and SU flows. Based on our mathematical analysi…

Generalized transport coefficients in a gas with large shear rate
1987
We get a solution of the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) model kinetic equation by means of a perturbative expansion of a temperature gradient to study the transport properties in a gas with large shear rate. The irreversible fluxes are evaluated exactly to first order in the expansion for Maxwell molecules. The transport coefficients obtained are highly nonlinear functions of the shear rate. This dependence on shear rate is analysed and compared with previous results for several transport coefficients. Finally, we have found a solution for a simple model of constant collision frequency for which a large shear rate coexists with an arbitrary temperature gradient.
Oxide/water interfaces: how the surface chemistry modifies interfacial water properties
2012
The organization of water at the interface with silica and alumina oxides is analysed using density functional theory-based molecular dynamics simulation (DFT-MD). The interfacial hydrogen bonding is investigated in detail and related to the chemistry of the oxide surfaces by computing the surface charge density and acidity. We find that water molecules hydrogen-bonded to the surface have different orientations depending on the strength of the hydrogen bonds and use this observation to explain the features in the surface vibrational spectra measured by sum frequency generation spectroscopy. In particular, 'ice-like' and 'liquid-like' features in these spectra are interpreted as the result o…
High precision numerical estimates of acoustic phonon frequencies of nonspherical nanoparticles
2006
We introduce an adapted method for calculating the acoustic vibrational frequencies of arbitrarily shaped nanoparticles to high precision. Molecular dynamics simulation results are tested against exact solutions for a free sphere, a hollow sphere and a spheroid. This permits theoretical predictions of the frequencies of peaks in low frequency Raman spectra. Our results demonstrate that vibrational frequencies can be calculated for a wide range of low frequency modes with accuracies on the order of a tenth of a percent.
Synthesis and low-frequency vibrational spectra of some halo- and pseudohalo-diphenylantimonates(V)
1976
Abstract The syntheses of diphenylantimonates(V) of the type M(I) [PH 2 XbX 4 ] (M(I) = PH 4 As; X = F, Cl, Br, N 3 , NCS; X 4 = Cl 3 Br, Cl 3 N 3 ) are described. Far-Ir spectra of these compounds and of previously synthesized M(I) [Ph 2 SbCl 3 X] species (M(I) = Me 4 N; X = Cl, Br, N 3 ; M(I) = Ph 4 As; X = NCS) are reported. Raman spectra of tetrafluoro and tetrachloro salts are also given. Vibrational data are interpreted in terms of the presence of solid of trans -Ph 2 SbX 4 - species and assignments of skeletal modes are suggested.
Modeling of the Low-Frequency Noise in Thermal Lens Spectrometry
1998
The low-frequency noise observed in thermal lens spectrometry (TLS) can be modeled by assuming that the heated region, constituted by the thermal lens gradient and associated convective stream, behaves as a weakly damped harmonic oscillator with a natural frequency, vo, which is forced to move at an externally imposed pump frequency, vp. Out-of-phase lower-frequency oscillations of the TLS signal can be produced both by transient events, such as the beginning of the TLS experiment and small changes in the pump beam stability, and by drift of boundary conditions, such as the temperature of the surroundings. A model is developed and checked using 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-napthol (PAN) solutions in …
Forced Rayleigh scattering from non-harmonic gratings applied to complex diffusion processes in glass-forming liquids
1999
Abstract Tracer diffusion of 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQ) and its photoproduct in super-cooled phenolphthalein-dimethyl-ether (PDE) was studied by forced Rayleigh scattering. In order to investigate the spatial frequency dependence of the grating dynamics, several spatial harmonics of the grating with non-sinusoidal phase profile produced by non-linear recording were monitored. An optical scheme with a diverging reading beam is proposed for simultaneous reconstruction of the harmonic components.
