Self-similarities in Hilbert Envelope Energy Regions on Motion Waveforms Application in Detecting Motion Irregularities in Video Frames
Abstract: This paper introduces self-similar Hilbert envelope energy regions that are commonly found in oscillating spectral curves. The time-varying amplitudes and peak value frequencies in typical spectral curves reflect the response of a system to external stimuli. A Hilbert envelope is a smooth curve connected between spectral curve peak values. Each peak value on an envelope curve at time identifies an envelope-bounded region with interior area (called Hilbert envelope energy region …

Thermally Stimulated Luminescence and Electron Spin Resonance Study of Gamma Irradiated Poly Carbonate
Abstract: Polycarbonate (PC) is an industrially important polymer. Gamma irradiation effects of PC are investigated by thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) and electron spin resonance (ESR) techniques. The TSL spectra of irradiated PC have shown two glow peaks, around 149oC (422 K) and 165oC (438 K). The observed glow peaks are analysed by initial rise methods, Chen’s method and modified initial rise method. The trap parameters corresponding to the two glow peaks …

Performance Evaluation of PAPR Reduction in OFDM System
Abstract: OFDM is a bandwidth efficient multicarrier modulation which has gained a tremendous focus in recent years because of its high spectral efficiency; multipath delay spread tolerance, effectiveness against impulse noise and frequency diversity. However, some challenging issues still remain unsolved in the design of the OFDM systems. One of the major problems is high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of transmitted OFDM signals. A large PAPR brings disadvantages like increased complexity …

Applications of AI: Does it Impact Emissions of Carbon?
Abstract: Several countries, including India, have vowed to achieve net-zero emissions by the middle of the century, in line with the Paris Agreement's goals. India, as one of the world's largest and fastest-growing economies and the third-largest carbon emitter, has set lofty goals in its climate change plan. By 2030, India intends to attain carbon peaking, which represents the top of its carbon emissions before beginning a slow drop. Furthermore, the …
