Preparation and characterisation of metallorganic precursors derived iron oxides on porous silicon layers
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd., Switzerland, 2020)Porous silicon has generated interest in scientific community after its photoluminescence discovery and thereafter, research was focused on to the chemical functionalization of silicon and subsequent anchoring of nanoparticles ... -
Special Issue: Optical Characterizations of Novel Composite and Optically Active Materials
(2020)The Special Issue “Optical Characterizations of Novel Composite and Optically Active Materials” was launched to cover the latest advances in the development of novel composite materials with unique optical properties and ... -
Enhanced FTIR Spectroscopy of Biological Liquid Samples Confined Between Ge Hemispherical ATR Element and Al Coated Glass Substrate
(2020)We demonstrated a modified SEIRA approach, which can be easily utilized for measurements of various liquid samples, including biological specimens. In addition, the possibility of using Al, known as non-typical ... -
Accounting for the Local Field When Determining the Dielectric Loss Spectra of Metals in the Region of the Frequencies of Volume, Surface, and Localized Plasmon Oscillations
(2020)The optical constant of bulk metal is used to determine the dispersion of the local field under one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) confinement. 3D confinement, expressed as ε 2 m i c ( ω ... -
Investigation of AgInS2/ZnS Quantum Dots by Magnetic Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy
(2019)Over recent years, quantum dots (QDs) based on ternary metal dichalcogenides have attracted a lot of attention due to their unique properties and a range of potential applications. Here, we review the latest studies on the ... -
Blockchain, what time is it? Trustless Datetime Synchronization for IoT
(2020)Time synchronization among IoT devices is a fundamental requirement for efficient and reliable communication on a global scale. Common synchronization schemes such as NTP operate on a trust-based client-server model, which ... -
DeCoRIC: Decentralized Connected Resilient IoT Clustering
(2020)Maintaining peer-to-peer connectivity with low energy overhead is a key requirement for several emerging Internet of Things (IoT) applications. It is also desirable to develop such connectivity solutions for non-static ... -
observation of an anomalous SmA-SmC-SmA phase sequence in a bent-core liquid crystal derived from 4-cyanoresorcinol
(2020)The physical properties and the phase transitions of a smectic liquid crystal material built from achiral bent-core molecules are investigated by electro-optics, polarizing microscopy, birefringence, and spontaneous ... -
Formation and development of nanometer-sized cybotactic clusters in bent-core nematic liquid crystalline compounds
(2018)Two homologue achiral bent-core liquid crystals (LCs), BCN66 and BCN84, in their nematic phases are studied by dielectric spectroscopy in the frequency range 10 Hz–10 MHz. In each of these compounds, two relaxation processes ... -
Identification of Thyroid Gland Activity in Radioiodine Therapy
(2017)The Bayesian identification of a linear regression model (called the biphasic model) for time dependence of thyroid gland activity in 131 I radioiodine therapy is presented. Prior knowledge is elicited via hard ... -
Mapping theoretical and methodological perspectives for understanding speech interface interactions
(2019)The use of speech as an interaction modality has grown considerably through the integration of Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPAs- e.g. Siri, Google Assistant) into smartphones and voice based devices (e.g. Amazon Echo). ... -
Survival at the museum: A cooperation experiment with emotionally expressive virtual characters
(2018)Correctly interpreting an interlocutor's emotional expression is paramount to a successful interaction. But what happens when one of the interlocutors is a machine? The facilitation of human-machine communication and ... -
Attention-based audio-visual fusion for robust automatic speech recognition
(2018)Automatic speech recognition can potentially benefit from the lip motion patterns, complementing acoustic speech to improve the overall recognition performance, particularly in noise. In this paper we propose an audio-visual ... -
Multimodal continuous turn-taking prediction using multiscale RNNs
(2018)In human conversational interactions, turn-taking exchanges can be coordinated using cues from multiple modalities. To design spoken dialog systems that can conduct fluid interactions it is desirable to incorporate cues ... -
Pathological Motion Detection for Robust Missing Data Treatment
(2008)This paper presents a new missing data detection algorithm that is robust to pathological motion (PM). PM causes clean image data to be misdiagnosed as missing data, resulting in damage to the image during restoration. The ... -
On Parsing Visual Sequences with the Hidden Markov Model
(2009)Hidden Markov Models have been employed in many vision applications to model and identify events of interest. Their useis common in applications where HMMs are used to classify previously divided ... -
Perceived Audio Quality for Streaming Stereo Music.
(2014)Users of audio-visual streaming services expect an ever increasing quality of experience. Channel bandwidth remains a bottleneck commonly addressed with lossy compression schemes for both the video and audio streams. ... -
ViSQOLAudio: An objective audio quality metric for low bitrate codecs
(2015)Streaming services seek to optimise their use of bandwidthacross audio and visual channels to maximise the quality of experiencefor users. This letter evaluates whether objective quality metrics can pre-dict the audio ... -
Objective Assessment of Perceptual Audio Quality Using ViSQOLAudio
(2017)Digital audio broadcasting services transmit substantial amounts of data that is encoded to minimize bandwidth whilst maximizing user quality of experience. Many large service providers continually alter codecs to improve ... -
