Experimental and numerical modal characterization for additively manufactured triply periodic minimal surface lattice structures: Comparison between free-size and homogenization-based optimization methods
(Wiley, 2023-06)Homogenization-based topology optimization (HMTO) is one of the most extensively used grading methods to generate functionally graded lattice structures (FGLs). However, it requires a precharacterization of the lattices, ... -
Deep learning-based speaker-adaptive postfiltering with limited adaptation data for embedded text-to-speech synthesis systems
(Elsevier, 2023-06)End-to-end (e2e) speech synthesis systems have become popular with the recent introduction of text-to-spectrogram conversion systems, such as Tacotron, that use encoder–decoder-based neural architectures. Even though those ... -
Symbolic knowledge extraction for explainable nutritional recommenders
