OBJECTIVES
Lexical tone recognition tends to be poor in cochlear implant users. The HiResolution (HiRes) sound-processing strategy is designed to better preserve temporal fine structure, or the… (More)
This note studies the controllability of a leader-follower network of dynamic agents linked via neighbor rules. The leader is a particular agent acting as an external input to steer the other member… (More)
Pacing threshold is affected by many factors. A pacing system able to confirm capture at each beat and automatically adjust its output close to the actual pacing threshold is highly desirable. This… (More)
Because of its complicated structure, low signal/noise ratio, low contrast and blurry boundaries, fully automated segmentation of a breast ultrasound (BUS) image is a difficult task. In this paper, a… (More)
This paper considers a discrete-time model of a class of multi-agent systems with a leader. We analyze the controllability of the system with fixed and variant (switching) communication topologies,… (More)
For a successful computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) approach, investigating the benefit of the output for radiologist diagnosis is as important as developing the computer algorithm itself. To evaluate… (More)
Due to the superparamagnetism, the configuration of magnetic recording system has to be changed in order to enhance the writing capability or to reduce the number of grains per bit. The next target… (More)

In this paper we study the property of controllability for a class of interconnected systems with a leader in switching networks. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the interconnected… (More)
Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-associated chronic liver diseases are treated with nucleoside analogs that target the virus polymerase. While these analogs are potent, drugs are needed to target other… (More)
Accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) in the brain is believed to contribute to the pathology of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Aβ levels are controlled by the production of Aβ from amyloid precursor protein,… (More)
