The band structure of strongly correlated two-dimensional (2D) semimetal systems is found to be significantly affected by the spin-orbit coupling (SOC), resulting in SOC-induced Fermi surfaces. Dirac, Weyl and Majorana representations are used for th...

  • Young-Jin Park,
  • Sanghyuk Lee and
  • Sangmin Lee

6 July 2016

In this paper, we propose a robust voice activity detection (VAD) algorithm to effectively distinguish speech from non-speech in various noisy environments. The proposed VAD utilizes power spectral deviation (PSD), using Teager energy (TE) to provide...

Entangled Harmonic Oscillators and Space-Time Entanglement

  • Sibel Başkal,
  • Young S. Kim and
  • Marilyn E. Noz

28 June 2016

The mathematical basis for the Gaussian entanglement is discussed in detail, as well as its implications in the internal space-time structure of relativistic extended particles. It is shown that the Gaussian entanglement shares the same set of mathem...

In this paper, we investigated inflationary solutions for a subclass of Horndeski models where a scalar field is non-minimally coupled with the Gauss–Bonnet invariant. Examples of canonical scalar field and k-essence to support the early-time acceler...

Three new classes of N-body problems of goldfish type are identified, with N an arbitrary positive integer ( N ≥ 2 ). These models are characterized by nonlinear Newtonian (“accelerations equal forces”) equations of motion describing N equal po...

Top-N Recommender Systems Using Genetic Algorithm-Based Visual-Clustering Methods

  • Ukrit Marung,
  • Nipon Theera-Umpon and
  • Sansanee Auephanwiriyakul

24 June 2016

The drastic increase of websites is one of the causes behind the recent information overload on the internet. A recommender system (RS) has been developed for helping users filter information. However, the cold-start and sparsity problems lead to low...
