We study the extension of what class of linear time invariantplants may be transformed into SPR systems introducingan observer. It is shown that for the open loopstable systems a cascaded observer achieves the result.For the open loop unstable systems an observer-basedfeedback is required to success. In general any system stabilizableand observable may be transformed into an SPRsystem. This overco

Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococci, GAS) is a potent human pathogen known to express a number of cell surface associated virulence factors. It is an established fact that these different surface proteins play an important role during infection. Thus, M family proteins interact with host immune system components allowing streptococci to evade phagocytosis. Another important group of bacte

Usually the mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) are derived via Hamming windowed DFT spectrum. In this paper, we advocate to use a so-called multitaper method instead. Multitaper methods form a spectrum estimate using multiple window functions and frequency-domain averaging. Multitapers provide a robust spectrum estimate but have not received much attention in speech processing. Our speake

A new method using Hamming codes to construct base matrices of (J, K)-regular LDPC convolutional codes with large free distance is presented. By proper labeling the corresponding base matrices and tailbiting these parent convolutional codes to given lengths, a large set of quasi-cyclic (QC) (J, K)-regular LDPC block codes with large minimum distance is obtained. The corresponding Tanner graphs hav

Popular Abstract in English Microorganisms can be used for production of pharmaceutical substances. With the introduction of gene technology, it is possible to transfer information from one organism to the other, thereby making the receiving organism capable of producing substances that it did not so before.

Continuous software product development is increasingly becoming the norm. New requirements come in a constant stream and need to be assigned to projects to make it into a release. However, in the literature requirements management practices are project based and no longer naturally fit to this new setting. Aim: Thus, it is of interest to understand the industrial practices for the identification

In this paper, we study the influence of current localization on the isolation between two antennas in a compact terminal setting. The two antennas are chosen to be a monopole and a PIFA, respectively. The degree of current localization is controlled by the permittivity value of the PIFA’s dielectric loading. Both lossless and lossy cases are simulated in order to ascertain the underlying performa
