Extent of Lingual Coarticulation: A Crosslinguistic Study Using Ultrasound Imaging
Abstract: In the recent past, Ultrasound imaging has been used extensively as a tool to measure coarticulation. The extent of coarticulation is the magnitude of distance between tongues contours of adjacent phonemes that varies based on the articulatory dynamics of each phoneme. This lack of invariance is language-specific which is related to the articulatory constraint properties of a particular language. In this context, the present study aimed to analyse the magnitude …

Single Sensor Camera Image Denoising Using PCA and Demosaicking with LMMSE
Abstract: Single sensor cameras are used mostly for image acquisition in digital cameras with a colour filter array (CFA). These cameras save image in an unrefined format, since the complete process of image acquisition get lengthy and complex, so it introduces noise in the image and hence requires some efficient technique for denoising. Different techniques have been used to denoise the captured image but efficiency of the algorithms has not been …
