Gain Scheduling Control of an Islanded Microgrid Voltage
(MDPI, 2014-07)
The aim of this research study has been to design a gain scheduling (GS) digital controller in order to control the voltage of an islanded microgrid in the presence of fast varying loads (FVLs), and to compare it to a ...
Towards Application of One-Class Classification Methods to Medical Data
(Hindawi Publishing, 2014)
In the problem of one-class classification (OCC) one of the classes, the target class, has to be distinguished from all other possible objects, considered as nontargets. In many biomedical problems this situation arises, ...
Dual-path methods for propagating quantum microwaves
(IOP Publishing, 2014-01)
We study quantum state tomography, entanglement detection and channel noise reconstruction of propagating quantum microwaves via dual-path methods. The presented schemes make use of the following key elements: propagation ...
From transistor to trapped-ion computers for quantum chemistry
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014-01)
Over the last few decades, quantum chemistry has progressed through the development of computational methods based on modern digital computers. However, these methods can hardly fulfill the exponentially-growing resource ...
Feature Selection for Speech Emotion Recognition in Spanish and Basque: On the Use of Machine Learning to Improve Human-Computer Interaction
(Public Library Science, 2014-10-03)
Study of emotions in human-computer interaction is a growing research area. This paper shows an attempt to select the most significant features for emotion recognition in spoken Basque and Spanish Languages using different ...
Complexity and Uniqueness of the Aromatic Profile of Smoked and Unsmoked Herreno Cheese
(MDPI, 2014-06)
In this work, the volatile fraction of unsmoked and smoked Herreno cheese, a type of soft cheese from the Canary Islands, has been characterized for the first time. In order to evaluate if the position in the smokehouse ...
Seasonal Blowfly Distribution and Abundance in Fragmented Landscapes. Is It Useful in Forensic Inference about Where a Corpse Has Been Decaying?
(Public Library Science, 2014-06-11)
Blowflies are insects of forensic interest as they may indicate characteristics of the environment where a body has been laying prior to the discovery. In order to estimate changes in community related to landscape and to ...
Modeling habits as self-sustaining patterns of sensorimotor behavior
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-08-08)
In the recent history of psychology and cognitive neuroscience, the notion of habit has been reduced to a stimulus-triggered response probability correlation. In this paper we use a computational model to present an ...
A Novel Micro- and Nano-Scale Positioning Sensor Based on Radio Frequency Resonant Cavities
(MDPI, 2014-06)
In many micro- and nano-scale technological applications high sensitivity displacement sensors are needed, especially in ultraprecision metrology and manufacturing. In this work a new way of sensing displacement based on ...
Synthesis and stereochemical assignments of diastereomeric Ni(II) complexes of glycine Schiff base with (R)-2-(N-{2-[N-alkyl-N-(1-phenylethyl)-amino]acetyl}amino) benzophenone; a case of configurationally stable stereogenic nitrogen
(Beilstein Institut, 2014-02-19)
A family of chiral ligands derived from alpha-phenylethylamine and 2-aminobenzophenone were prepared by alkylation of the nitrogen atom. Upon reaction with glycine and a Ni(II) salt, these ligands were transformed into ...
