Eigenvoice speaker adaptation with minimal data for statistical speech synthesis systems using a MAP approach and nearest-neighbors
(IEEE, 2014-12)
Statistical speech synthesis (SSS) systems have the ability to adapt to a target speaker with a couple of minutes of adaptation data. Developing adaptation algorithms to further reduce the number of adaptation utterances ...
Heat transfer impact of synthetic jets for air-cooled array of fins
(ASME, 2015-10-13)
Free convection air cooling from a vertically placed heat sink is enhanced by upward concurrent pulsated air flow generated by mesoscale synthetic jets. The cooling enhancement is experimentally studied. An enhancement ...
Molecular simulations of COFs, IRMOFs and ZIFs for adsorption-based separation of carbon tetrachloride from air
(Elsevier, 2019-01)
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) have been widely studied gas separation applications due to their large surface areas, high pore volumes, tunable ...
Biomineralized cement-based materials: impact of inoculating vegetative bacterial cells on hydration and strength
(Elsevier, 2015-01)
Biomineralization in cement-based materials has become a point of interest in recent years due to the possibility that such an approach could be used to develop a self-healing cement-based system. The objective of this ...
Information theoretic performance of cooperative underwater acoustic communications
(IEEE, 2011)
Cooperative communication is considered as a major enabling technique to meet the demanding performance requirements of future underwater acoustic (UWA) communication systems. In this paper, we investigate the information ...
A preconditioned multigrid for simulation of atmospheric flow and wind turbine wakes
(Elsevier, 2015-11-20)
This paper demonstrates a low Mach number preconditioning formulation for high Reynolds number, low Mach number atmospheric flows. The preconditioning is implemented together with multigrid approach into a multistage solver ...

Modeling influenza pandemic and planning food distribution
(Informs, 2014)
Based on the recent incidents of H5N1, H1N1, and influenza pandemics in history (1918, 1957, and 1968) experts believe that a future influenza pandemic is inevitable and likely imminent. Although the severity of influenza ...
Supplier selection for framework agreements in humanitarian relief
(Wiley, 2014-06)
In this study, we consider the supplier selection problem of a relief organization that wants to establish framework agreements (FAs) with a number of suppliers to ensure quick and cost-effective procurement of relief ...
Channel modeling and performance characterization of underwater visible light communications
(IEEE, 2018-07-03)
Underwater visible light communication (UVLC) has emerged as an attractive complementary solution to long-range acoustic communication and is able to achieve much higher data speeds. In this paper, we investigate the ...
