Hybrid statistical/unit-selection Turkish speech synthesis using suffix units
(Springer International Publishing, 2016-12)
Unit selection based text-to-speech synthesis (TTS) has been the dominant TTS approach of the last decade. Despite its success, unit selection approach has its disadvantages. One of the most significant disadvantages is ...
Modelling information flow of occupant feedback in office buildings
(International Association for Automation and Robotics in Construction, 2018)
Occupant comfort plays an important role in office buildings in terms of environmental, social, and economic aspects. Facility managers need to evaluate occupant feedback to moderate the negative consequences on office ...
Model-based runtime monitoring of smart city systems
(Elsevier, 2018)
The pace of proliferation for smart systems in city wide applications is unmatched. The introduction of Internet of Things (IoT), an enabler of smart city phenomenon, has incubated a productive environment for such ...
Optimal stiffness tuning for a lower body exoskeleton with spring-supported passive joints
(IEEE, 2018-10-09)
This paper presents a framework to optimally tune the stiffness values of spring-supported passive joints that are included in lower body exoskeletons. First, a dynamic model of a combined human-exoskeleton system was ...
Effect of fog and rain on the performance of vehicular visible light communications
(IEEE, 2018-07-20)
In Intelligent Transportation Systems, visible light communication (VLC) has emerged as a powerful candidate to enable wireless connectivity in vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to- infrastructure (V2I) links. While VLC ...
Mean field multilayer stackelberg differential games in multi-agent systems
(Ministry Communications & High Technologies Republic Azerbaijan, 2018)
In this paper, we study linear-quadratic hierarchical mean field Stackelberg differential games with decentralized adapted open-loop information structure. In this game model, there are three levels of decision making, ...
Static and dynamic analyses for the exergetic, exergoeconomic and environmental assessment of a high-performance building
(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2018)
This paper presents an exergetic, exergoeconomic and environmental assessment of an existing high-performance building using both static and dynamic analyses. The IEA ECBCS framework is adopted for exergy analysis, whereas ...
Porous materials
(Elsevier, 2018)
Natural gas has received significant attention as a cleaner energy source alternative to gasoline. Natural gas consists of mainly methane (CH4); therefore, efficient storage of CH4 is essential to utilize natural gas. ...
Implications of site specific response analysis
(Springer, 2018)
Definition of design earthquake characteristics, more specifically uniform hazard acceleration response spectrum, on the ground surface is the primary component for performance based design of structures and assessment of ...
Flow visualization and LES simulations inside a chevron type plate heat exchanger
(Begell House Inc., 2018)
An up-scaled model of a single channel of CPHE was used under dynamically similar conditions for the experiments. In experiments, pressure drop measurements and flow visualizations were conducted with aluminum flitter and ...
