Model checking is one of the most important technology for automatically verification. So this paper generally proposed a method of combining CCS and Z language, to perform model checking. It combines the advantage of current CCS and Z systems, where CCS is good at describing concurrent systems, also Z is a good tool for data structure. As a result, form the new system CCS-Z. Then we give the syntax and semantics of it, at last give the model checking *** advantage of this paper is combined data stucture on the famous system CCS, and increase the capacity of system description.

This paper presents a complexity adaptive channel estimator for low power. Channel estimation (CE) is one of the most computation intensive tasks in a software-defined radio (SDR) based OFDM demodulator. Complementary to the conventional low-power design methodology on processor architectures or circuits, we propose to reduce power also at the algorithm level. The idea is to dynamically scale the processing load of the channel estimator according to the run-time estimated channel quality. In this work, with a case study on China Mobile Multimedia Broadcasting (CMMB) standard, three practical CE algorithms are adopted to form a complexity scalable algorithm set, and signal noise ratio (SNR) is chosen to be the channel quality parameter for CE algorithm switching. In order to accurately estimate the SNR in the run-time, we also propose a noise variance estimation algorithm which is robust against fast-fading channels and introduces small computation overheads. Simulation shows that, under a pre-defined scenario for our targeting SDR demodulator, more than 50% run-time load reduction can be achieved compared with a fixed worst case channel estimator, while still fulfilling the mean square error requirement, resulting in about 25% of power reduction for the total demodulator. In addition, complexity adaption enables dynamical voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) in a SDR demodulator which can lead to furthermore power reduction.

In this paper, we propose to evaluate the quality of emotional speech synthesis by means of an automatic emotion identification system. We test this approach using five different parametric speech synthesis systems, ranging from plain non-emotional synthesis to full re-synthesis of pre-recorded speech. We compare the results achieved with the automatic system to those of human perception tests. While preliminary, our results indicate that automatic emotion identification can be used to assess the quality of emotional speech synthesis, potentially replacing time consuming and expensive human perception tests.

The availability of computers and communication networks allows us to gather and analyse data on a far larger scale than previously. At present, it is believed that statistics is a suitable method to analyse networks with millions, or more, of vertices. The MATLAB language, with its mass of statistical functions, is a good choice to rapidly realize an algorithm prototype of complex networks. The performance of the MATLAB codes can be further improved by using graphic processor units (GPU). This paper presents the strategies and performance of the GPU implementation of a complex networks package, and the Jacket toolbox of MATLAB is used. Compared with some commercially available CPU implementations, GPU can achieve a speedup of, on average, 11.3x. The experimental result proves that the GPU platform combined with the MATLAB language is a good combination for complex network research.

We propose to use the partial similarity between a sample and a number of exemplars as the image features for visual object detection. Define a part of the object as a sub-window inside the object bounding box, for each part of the object, a codebook of local appearance templates is learned. By using multiple templates for each part, and allowing the template to be compared with a bag of part instances in the neighborhood of the canonical location, the deformable and multi-aspect properties can be captured. A linear classifier is learned with feature selection, selecting a subset of the templates. To improve the efficiency of the detector, a rejection cascade is built by calibrating the linear classifier; the rejection cascade makes decisions using partial scores. Experimental results show that our method substantially improves the performance for human detection.

In this paper we propose an algorithm for automatic detection of an infant cry. A particular application of this algorithm is the identification of a physical danger to babies, such as situations in which parents leave their children in vehicles. The proposed algorithm is based on two main stages. The first stage involves feature extraction, in which pitch related parameters, MFC (mel-frequency cepstrum) coefficients and short-time energy parameters are extracted from the signal. In the second stage, the signal is classified using the k-NN algorithm and is later verified as a cry signal, based on the pitch and harmonics information. In order to evaluate the performance of the algorithm in real world scenarios, we checked the robustness of the algorithm in the presence of several types of noise, and especially noises such as car horns and car engines that are likely to be present in vehicles. In addition, we addressed real time and low complexity demands during the development of the algorithm. In particular, we used a voice activity detector, which disabled the operation of the algorithm when voice activity was not present. A database of baby cry signals was used for performance evaluation. The results showed good performance of the proposed algorithm, even at low SNR.

There exist noisy, unparallel sentences in parallel web pages. Web page structure is subjected to some limitation for sentences alignment task for web page text. The most straightforward way of aligning sentences is using a translation lexicon. However, a major obstacle to this approach is the lack of dictionary for training. This paper presents a method for automatically align Mongolian-Chinese parallel text on the Web via vector space model. Vector space model is an algebraic model for representing any object as vectors of identifiers, such as index terms. In the statistically based vector-space model, a sentence is conceptually represented by a vector of keywords extracted from the text. Extracted keywords are composed by content words, known as terms and the weight of a term in a sentence vector can be determined tf-idf method. CHI is used to compute the association between bilingual words. Once the term weights are determined, the similarity between sentence vectors is computed via cosine measure. The experimental results indicate that the method is accurate and efficient enough to apply without human intervention.

Decoding algorithms for syntax based machine translation suffer from high computational complexity, a consequence of intersecting a language model with a context free grammar. Left-to-right decoding, which generates the target string in order, can improve decoding efficiency by simplifying the language model evaluation. This paper presents a novel left to right decoding algorithm for tree-to-string translation, using a bottom-up parsing strategy and dynamic future cost estimation for each partial translation. Our method outperforms previously published tree-to-string decoders, including a competing left-to-right method.
