Instrumentalizing Synthesis Models

ABSTRACT An important part of building interactive sound models is designing the interface and control strategy. The multidimensional structure of the gestures natural for a musical or physical interface may have little obvious relationship to the parameters that a sound synthesis algorithm exposes for control. A common situation arises when there is a nonlinear synthesis technique for which a traditional instrumental interface with quasi-independent control of pitch and expression is desired. This paper presents a semi-automatic meta-modeling tool called the Instrumentalizer for embedding arbitrary synthesis algorithms in a control structure that exposes traditional instrument controls for pitch and expression

Impact of sea level rise on current and wave in Van Uc coastal area

This paper presents the results of analysis, comparison of some characteristics of current, wave at Van Uc estuary area when being affected by sea level rise due to climate change based on Delft3D model. Scenario groups are established: The current scenario and the scenarios simulating effect of sea level rise 0.5 m and 1.0 m. The results of calculation and simulation show that the velocity values change locally when sea level rises: Rise in the northern and southern areas (0.2–5 cm/s); decrease in the navigation channel (0.6–30 cm/s). Sea level rise causes the increase of wave height in the coastal area (13.5–43.8% in the dry season and 20–40% in the rainy season) and fewer changes in the outer area

Improving Generative Flow Networks with Path Regularization

Generative Flow Networks (GFlowNets) are recently proposed models for learning stochastic policies that generate compositional objects by sequences of actions with the probability proportional to a given reward function. The central problem of GFlowNets is to improve their exploration and generalization. In this work, we propose a novel path regularization method based on optimal transport theory that places prior constraints on the underlying structure of the GFlowNets. The prior is designed to help the GFlowNets better discover the latent structure of the target distribution or enhance its ability to explore the environment in the context of active learning. The path regularization controls the flow in GFlowNets to generate more diverse and novel candidates via maximizing the optimal transport distances between two forward policies or to improve the generalization via minimizing the optimal transport distances. In addition, we derive an efficient implementation of the regularization by finding its closed form solutions in specific cases and a meaningful upper bound that can be used as an approximation to minimize the regularization term. We empirically demonstrate the advantage of our path regularization on a wide range of tasks, including synthetic hypergrid environment modeling, discrete probabilistic modeling, and biological sequence design.Comment: 28 pages, 2 figures, 5 tables.

Quality comparison of Y-shape joints by tube hydroforming with and without counterforce

The design capability, strength, and structural rigidity provided by tube hydroforming (THF) are successfully used in many applications to produce high-strength parts and assemblies with improved mechanical properties, optimized service life, and weight features. In tubular metal forming, output parameters such as branch height, distribution of tube wall material thickness, distribution of damage factor, metal flow, effective stress, and effective strain significantly affect the quality of the product after the forming process. Therefore, this paper aims to evaluate the manufacturing quality of Y-shape joints from AISI304 material steel tube through output parameters of THF process with and without counter punch force on numerical simulation base. The Finite Element Method (FEM) has become an established feature of metal forming technology. The objective of FEM is to replace costly and elaborate experimental testing with fast, low-cost computer simulation. The simulation study uses finite element method-based virtual prototyping techniques to characterize output parameters, gain insight into strain mechanics, and predict mechanical properties of shaped components. The research results are presented clearly and unambiguously through the evaluation of 7 criteria to compare the quality of the specimens hydroformed by two surveyed cases and optimize the crucial input process parameters. And these data can be applied in experiments, more efficient product and process design, calculation, and control of input parameters avoiding costly trial and error in industrial production. The findings can help technologists optimize process parameters in the hydroforming process of products with protrusion from a tubular blan

Effect of Annealing Temperature on the Li+^{ + } Ionic Conductivity of La0.67−x_{0.67 - x}Li3x_{3x}TiO3_{3 }

Perovskite La0.67-xLi3xTiO3 with x = 0.10, 0.11, 0.12 and 0.13 were firstly annealed at 800 oC then treated by reactive milling, followed by post-annealing at temperatures from 1100 to 1200oC. The crystalline structure of grain and grain-boundary were characterized by XRD and SEM. The impedance measurements showed that nanocrystalline La0.67-xLi3xTiO3 after being annealed at 1150 oC possessed a grain conductivity as high as 1.3×10-3 S.cm-1. The grain-boundary conductivity was enhanced one order in magnitude after annealing at temperature higher 1100oC and consists of 5.8×10-5 S.cm-1. The results have also showed the limitation of the adiabatic thermal treatment for the improvement of the grain-boundary conductivity and suggested the way to overcome the limitation by rapidly cooling the samples from the high temperature to room temperature

Quality of Water used at pig farms in the Red River delta

peer reviewedA research was carried out to evaluate water quality using at 12 different pig farms in Bac Ninh, Hung Yen and Hai Duong provinces. Water samples were taken in two periods from October to December 2006 and from March to April 2007. Physical and chemical parameters were analysed at the laboratory of the Department of Veterinary Parasitology-Inspection and Hygiene - Hanoi University of Agriculture. The results showed that, all water sources using the pig farms came from underground and a half of which was not processed. Contents of COD(H+), COD(OH-), CO2, Cl- in water in Hai Duong and Bac Ninh were exceeded the hygiene standard. Iron content in water in all three provinces was exceeded the hygiene standard. After using a processed system including artificial rain, H2O2 supplement and filter the content of DO, CO2 and Fe in the water reached the permitted hygiene standard

Unmanned aerial vehicle-aided cooperative regenerative relaying network under various environments

This paper studies a cooperative relay network that comprises an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) enabling amplify-and-forward (AF) and power splitting (PS) based energy harvesting. The considered system can be constructed in various environments such as suburban, urban, dense urban, and high-rise urban where the air-to-ground channels are model by a mixture of Rayleigh and Nakagami-m fading. Then, outage probability and ergodic capacity are provided under different environment-based parameters. Optimal PS ratios are also provided under normal and high transmit power regimes. Finally, the accuracy of the analytical results is validated through Monte Carlo methods
