An experimental speaker-independent system for isolated word recognition implemented for romanian language.
In this paper, we construct a combined upwinding and mixed finite element method for the numerical solution of a two-dimensional mean field model of superconducting vortices. An advantage of our method is that it works for any unstructured regular triangulation. A simple convergence analysis is given without resorting to the discrete maximum principle. Numerical examples are also presented.
We analyze a force-based quasicontinuum approximation to a one-dimensional system of atoms that interact by a classical atomistic potential. This force-based quasicontinuum approximation can be derived as the modification of an energy-based quasicontinuum approximation by the addition of nonconservative forces to correct nonphysical “ghost” forces that occur in the atomistic to continuum interface during constant strain. The algorithmic simplicity and consistency with the purely atomistic model at...
We consider an asymptotic preserving numerical scheme initially proposed by F. Filbet and S. Jin [J. Comput. Phys. 229 (2010)] and G. Dimarco and L. Pareschi [SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 49 (2011) 2057–2077] in the context of nonlinear and stiff kinetic equations. Here, we propose a convergence analysis of such a scheme for the approximation of a system of transport equations with a nonlinear source term, for which the asymptotic limit is given by a conservation law. We investigate the convergence of the...
We introduce an one-dimensional thermodynamical particle model which is efficient in predictions about a microscopical structure of animal/human groups. For such a model we present analytical calculations leading to formulae for time clearance distribution as well as for time spectral rigidity. Furthermore, the results obtained are reformulated in terms of vehicular traffic theory and consecutively compared to experimental traffic data.
In the 1950’s and 1960’s surface physicists/metallurgists such as Herring and Mullins applied ingenious thermodynamic arguments to explain a number of experimentally observed surface phenomena in crystals. These insights permitted the successful engineering of a large number of alloys, where the major mathematical novelty was that the surface response to external stress was anisotropic. By examining step/terrace (vicinal) surface defects it was discovered through lengthy and tedious experiments...

We study the upper tails for the energy of a randomly charged symmetric and transient random walk. We assume that only charges on the same site interact pairwise. We consider annealed estimates, that is when we average over both randomness, in dimension three or more. We obtain a large deviation principle, and an explicit rate function for a large class of charge distributions.
We study a random walk pinning model, where conditioned on a simple random walk Y on ℤd acting as a random medium, the path measure of a second independent simple random walk X up to time t is Gibbs transformed with hamiltonian −Lt(X, Y), where Lt(X, Y) is the collision local time between X and Y up to time t. This model arises naturally in various contexts, including the study of the parabolic Anderson model with moving catalysts, the parabolic Anderson model with brownian noise, and the directed...
