Séparation de sources pour l’audition des robots / Source separation for robot audition

Maazaoui, Mounira 04 May 2012 (has links)
Cette thèse propose des algorithmes de séparation aveugle de sources audio en utilisant un réseau de capteurs. L'application finale de ces algorithmes est l'audition des robots dans le cadre du projet ROMEO. Dans cette thèse, nous avons développé des algorithmes de séparation aveugle de sources audio basés sur des critères de parcimonie. Nous montrons que la minimisation de la norme l1 avec une technique d'optimisation du gradient naturel permet d’élaborer un algorithme se situant au niveau de l’état de l’art. Nous montrons qu’un critère basé sur la paramétrisation de la pseudo-norme lp, avec 0<p<1 en améliore les performances. Ceci revient à rendre la contrainte de parcimonie plus dure au fur et à mesure que l'algorithme avance dans ses itérations. Pour exploiter l'aspect multicapteurs de notre application (16 capteurs sont fixés autour de la tête de l'humanoïde), nous avons proposé des algorithmes de séparation avec une étape de prétraitement de formation de voies fixe. Dans le cas de l'audition des robots, les capteurs sont souvent placés sur la tête de l'humanoïde. Afin de tenir compte de l'influence de la tête sur le champ sonore proche, nous avons construit les filtres de formation en utilisant les fonctions de transfert de tête (HRTF) du robot. L'étape de formation de voies améliore les résultats de séparation par rapport à l'utilisation d'un algorithme de séparation seule de minimum 10dB. Cette thèse propose aussi les versions adaptatives de ces algorithmes. Dans le scénario réel où le nombre de sources présentes dans l'environnement du robot est inconnu et change au cours du temps, nous montrons comment détecter et suivre le nombre de sources. / This thesis proposes blind audio source separation algorithms using a microphone array. The final application of these algorithms is robot audition through the ROMEO project. In this thesis, we developed blind source separation algorithms based on a sparcity criterion. We show that l1 minimization using the natural gradient optimization technique has the same performance that the state of the art. We show that a criterion based on the parametrization of the quazi-norm lp, with 0<p<1, improves the previous results: the sparsity criterion gets harder through the iterations of the algorithm. Then, we exploited the multisensor aspect of our application (16 sensors are fixed in the head of the humanoid) and we proposed a separation algorithms with a fixed beamforming preprocessing step. In the robot audition case, the sensors are often placed on the head of the humanoid. To take into account the influence of the head in the near sound manifold, we built the beamforming filters using the head related transfer functions (HRTF) of the robot. The beamforming step improves the separation results compared to the use of a blind source separation only. This thesis also proposes the adaptive versions of those algorithms. In the real scenario where the number of sources is unknown and changes, we show how to detect and follow the number of sources.

Nitrogen-15 Isotope Effects in Bond Formation Reactions

Hayes, Ernest 10 1900 (has links)
Nltrogen-15 isotope effects have been measured In the simple bond formation reactions of triethylamine with methyl iodide, triethylamine with ethyl iodide and triethylamine with ethyl bromide. Tests have been performed, to establish that the reactions were unidirectional under the experimental conditions and that the chemical procedures used to convert the quaternary ammonium salts to molecular nitrogen proceeded quantitatively. The mass spectrometer data were examined by rigorous statistical tests. At 6°C. the values of the ratio of rate constants, k14/k15, were: triethylamine-methyl iodide, 1.0009 +/- 0.0005; triethylamine-ethyl iodide, 1.0007 ±0.0006; trimethylamine-ethyl bromide, 0.9994 ±0.0006. For the reaction of triethylamine with ethyl iodide the value of k14/k15 increased slightly with increasing temperature. The results have been discussed in terms of the Bigeleisen theory of isotope effects with particular reference to the correct form for the effective mass term. / Thesis / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Depositional Systems Analysis of the Kosciusko Formation (Middle Claiborne Group) in Southern Mississippi

Berry, Robert Tyler 08 December 2017 (has links)
The middle Claiborne Kosciusko Formation is one of the primary water supplies for much of central and northwestern Mississippi. The formation consists of fluvial and deltaic sand, clay, and lignite, all of which comprises of a complex depositional system. In west-central Mississippi, the Kosciusko Formation contains upper and lower aquifer sands. These sand bodies rank fourth among the eleven most valuable water-bearing units in the state. The formation varies in thickness from approximately 1,000 feet (305 meters) near the Mississippi River in western Claiborne County to approximately 250 feet (76 meters) in Clarke County before grading to shale southward. This depositional systems analysis maps the net sands within the Kosciusko Formation using high-quality geophysical logs where possible. Sand body geometries, based on the net sand maps within this these, are compared with those of modern depositional systems to find modern analogues that best characterize the Kosciusko Formation.
