Two-level recognition of isolated word using neural nets
(1989-12-01)This paper describes a neural-net based isolated word recogniser that has a better performance on a standard multi-speaker database than our reference Hidden Markov Model recogniser. The complete neural net recogniser is ... -
Real-time portable multi-layer perceptron voice fundamental-period extractor for hearing aids and cochlear implants
(1990-01-01)Previous work has shown that it is possible to train a multi-layer perceptron to estimate the voice fundamental period (Tx) for multiple speakers in the presence of high levels of background noise. The algorithm has been ... -
Further developments of a neural network speech fundamental period estimation algorithm
(1991-12-01)This work describes a speech fundamental period estimation algorithm that estimates the time of excitation of the vocal tract using a pattern classifier, the multi-layer perceptron (MLP). The pattern classifier was trained ... -

Intergroup bias in group judgment processes: The role of behavioral memories
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC, 1998-01)Two experiments examined the role of memory for behavioral episodes in judgments about in-groups and out-groups. Using a minimal group paradigm, participants read either positive or negative trait-relevant behaviors ... -
The spontaneous suppression of racial stereotypes
(1998-01-01)Attempts to suppress social stereotypes often lead to an increase in the accessibility of those stereotypes, thereby increasing stereotypic influences on subsequent social judgments. The present research sought to determine ... -
Asymmetries of Brain Function in Alcoholism: Relationship to Aging
(Kluwer Academic Pub, 2000) -
The roles of motivation and ability in controlling the consequences of stereotype suppression
(2000-01-01)Two experiments investigated the conditions under which previously suppressed stereotypes are applied in impression formation. In Experiment 1, the extent to which a previously suppressed racial stereotype influenced ... -
Value conflicts in intergroup perception: a social cognitive perspective
(Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2003-01-01) -
A brief guide to the selection of quality of life instrument.
(England, 2003-07-03)There are numerous quality of life (QOL) scales. Because QOL experts are often partial to their own scales, researchers need to be able to select scales for themselves. Scales best suited for longitudinal purposes (clinical ... -
Cooperation of different neuronal systems during hand sign recognition.
(United States, 2004-09)Hand signs with symbolic meaning can often be utilized more successfully than words to communicate an intention; however, the underlying brain mechanisms are undefined. The present study using magnetoencephalography (MEG) ... -
A neuroeconomics approach to inferring utility functions in sensorimotor control.
(United States, 2004-10)Making choices is a fundamental aspect of human life. For over a century experimental economists have characterized the decisions people make based on the concept of a utility function. This function increases with ...
