Pose Estimation from Minimal Dual-Receiver Configurations

Using multiple receivers (microphones or antennas) in a rigid configuration, such as on a smartphone, it is possible to measure time difference of arrival to the receivers. This in turn can be used to determine the direction to the transmissions, if there are at least three receivers. When using two receivers it can be used to determine the angle to the transmissions relative to the line through t

Efficient Block and Time-Recursive Estimation of Sparse Volterra Systems

We investigate the application of non-convex penalized least squares for parameter estimation in the Volterra model. Sparsity is promoted by introducing a weighted !q penalty on the parameters and efficient batch and time recursive algorithms are devised based on the cyclic coordinate descent approach. Numerical examples illustrate the improved performance of the proposed algorithms as compared th

Theoretical foundation

Different theories about woman and woman's writing are surveyed. Showalter's theory on woman's culture is presented and modified, in order to create a theoretical platform for testing the hypothesis about woman's language existing outside the dominant language. The material chosen, women's letters from mainly the 18th Century in French, German, Swedish, and English, for testing this hypothesis, is

An Examination of the Robustness of the Vector Autoregressive Granger-Causality Test in the Presence of GARCH and Variance Shifts

The properties of the Granger-causality test in stationary and stable Vector Autoregressive (VAR) models are studied with different types of volatility processes imposed on the unconditional variance. For this test, it is examined how the size and power properties are affected by different magnitudes of GARCH processes and by structural shifts in the volatility. The study has been conducted by mea

Hungary, Romania, the Holocaust and Historical Culture

The Holocaust takes on different significance whether is it perceived as belonging to Jewish historical culture, to Hungarian historical culture or to Romanian historical culture – or whether these historical cultures are thought of, in ethnic terms, as bivalent. Thus, using the same concepts as the ones concerning certain individuals’ orientation in a bicultural environment, one can argue that th
