A frequency-domain output-constrained active noise control algorithm based on an intuitive circulant convolutional penalty factor by Shi, Dongyuan, Gan, Woon-Seng, Lam, Bhan, Shen, Xiaoyi

“…Prevailing time-domain adaptive algorithms - proposed to alleviate complexities from transformation - continue to incur increased complexities while constraining the magnitude of frequency bins in the time-domain filters. To address existing complexities in time-domain approaches, this paper proposes a circulant convolutional penalty factor that assists the extended leaky filtered-reference LMS (FxLMS) algorithm in achieving frequency constraint without any frequency-domain transform. …”

Characterization of hippocampal CA1 place cells. by Lau, Hwee Hui.

“…Most of the neurons had stable firing across sessions recorded in both familiar and novel environments, while some showing selective discharged of spikes in either one of the environments tested. The data recorded had provided spatial-temporal pattern for study of neuronal activities of physiologically identified place cells residing in the hippocampal CA1 pyramidal layer.…”

Unifying statistical texture classification frameworks by Varma, M, Zisserman, A

“…First, we show that there is a correspondence between the two common representations of filter outputs—textons and binned histograms. Second, we show that two classification methodologies, nearest neighbour matching and Bayesian classification, are equivalent for particular choices of the distance measure. …”

Stability of peptide nucleic acid influenced by peptoid-like sidechains : MD simulation study. by Yeo, Sven Hwea Jie.
