BACKGROUND:Reduction in grip-strength due to spasticity is a common cause of impairment after stroke. OBJECTIVE:To find an objective measure of post-stroke spasticity affecting grip-strength through quantification of ...

We demonstrate tunable diode laser spectroscopy (TDLS)-based absolute measurements of the mole fraction of carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in the plume of an aerosol-based fire extinguishing agent. The mole ...

Fibonacci Series and Music are related in many ways. Even though Indian Classical Music (ICM) is known to be based on Just Intonation rather than equal tempered, not much attention has been given to inflections on the ...

Linear-in-the-parameters nonlinear controllers are widely used for active noise cancellation (ANC) in the presence of nonlinearities in the system. However, the performance of such controllers deteriorates significantly ...

We propose an energy minimization approach to detect multiple reflection symmetry axes present in a given image representing fronto-parallel view of a scene. We perform local feature matching to detect the pairs of mirror ...

This paper reports the extraction of concentration and pressure of methane using a 1650nm laser diode operated at its phase quadrature frequency (fq) and using the calibration-free residual amplitude modulation (RAM) method. ...

Acoustic impulse response functions are generally sparse in nature and traditionally these are modeled by adaptive finite impulse response (FIR) filters trained using a least mean square (LMS) algorithm. The conventional ...

The invent of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) opens the door for a comprehensive analysis of consumers con-sumption patterns, which were not possible beforehand. The AMI can be used to address the major problem of ...

A very short-term solar PV power generation forecast can be extremely helpful for real-time balancing operation in an electricity market which in turn will profit both energy suppliers as well as customers. However, the ...
