Ultra low frequency yeast cells electric activity
Cifra, Michal; Pokorný, Jiří; Jelínek, František; Hašek, Jiří; Šimša, Jan
2008 - English
This paper presents results from the measurement of the electrical activity cold sensitive beta-tubulin mutant tub2-401 of yeast cells in frequency region 0.4 - 1.6 kHz. 25 measurements of both synchronized and nonsynchronized cells show that the synchronized cells have higher electrical activity what corresponds to the findings of Pohl et al. Mechanical oscillations of electrically polar structures in cell may give rise to electric oscillations we measured. Keywords: bioelectric phenomena; cellular biophysics; biomembranes Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Estimation of energy transfer parameters in thulium- and ytterbium-doped silica fibers
Peterka, Pavel; Blanc, W.; Dussardier, B.; Monnom, G.; Simpson, D. A.; Baxter, G.
2008 - English
We present an estimation of the energy transfer coefficients by comparison of the measured emission of three TYDF samples with numerical simulations of the respective emission. The energy transfer coefficients were found higher than those reported in Tm/Yb-doped fluoride based crystals. With possible improvement of excited level lifetime of thulium by high alumina codoping, it makes Tm/Yb co-doped silica fibers promising for applications in fiber lasers and amplifiers.

Dynamics of spontaneous photon emission from human body in 24 hour period
Cifra, Michal
2007 - English
Spontaneous ultra-weak photon emission in the visible range was measured on palm and dorsal side of left and right hand by means of a low noise photomultiplier system. To study the dynamics of this photon emission in a 24h period photon emission was recorded in 2h intervals in 5 experiments. Mean photon emission over the 24h period differed both between subjects and hand locations. The fluctuations in photon emission in the course of 24h were more at dorsal sides than palm sides. Spontánní utra-slabá emise fotonu ve viditelné oblasti byla změřena na dlani a dorzální straně levé a pravé ruky pomocí nízko šumového fotonásobiče. K studiu dynamiky této emise fotonu v pruběhu 24 hodin, emise fotonu byla měřena v intervalech 2 hodin v 5 experimentech. Průměrná intenzita emise fotonu v rozsahu 24 hodin se lišila jak mezi subjekty, tak i mezi měřenými lokacemi. Fluktuace inetzity emise fotonu v průběhu 24 hod. byly vyšší na dorzálních stranách rukou než na dlaních. Keywords: bioluminescence; photons; skin Available at various institutes of the ASCR

Construction of suitable prosody models for dialog systems
Horák, Petr
2007 - English
This paper deals with the improving of the synthetic prosody modeling especially with the improving of the intonation modeling. A mathematical model of the pitch contour modeling can significantly limit the complexity of intonation rules creation and increase the naturalness of resulting synthetic speech. The linear prediction intonation model implemented in TTS system Epos uses excitation by rules and provides in conjunction with a triphone time domain inventories more naturalness synthetic speech. Tento příspěvek se zabývá zlepšením modelování prozodie syntetické řeči pomocí zdokonaleného modelování průběhu základního tónu. Použití matematického modelu průběhu základního tónu může významně zjednodušit pravidla generování průběhu základního tónu a zvýšit přirozenost výsledné syntetické řeči. Lineárně predikční intonační model zabudovaný v TTS systému Epos používá buzení pomocí pravidel a společně s kvalitním trifonovým inventářem nabízí syntetickou řeč s vyšší přirozeností.

Storytelling voice conversion for TTS system with cepstral description
Přibil, Jiří; Přibilová, Anna
2007 - English
Our recent research in improvement of text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis was aimed at storytelling speaking style in addition to its multi-voice realization and expression of emotional states. Storytelling speaking style is suitable for applications aimed at children as well as applications aimed at blind people. In this contribution the experiments with the storytelling voice conversion performed on the short sentences of stories in Slovak and Czech are described. Náš poslední výzkum ke zlepšení kvality syntézy řeči byl zaměřen na implementaci pohádkových řečových stylů sloužících k vyjádření emočních stavů v rámci vícehlasé realizace TTS systému. Pohádkové řečové styly jsou užitečné v hlasových aplikací určených pro děti a také pro nevidomé. V tomto článku jsou popsány experimenty s konverzí pohádkových hlasů prováděné na krátkých promluvách z pohádek v slovenštině a češtině.

Speech enhancement using cepstral vocoder
Vondra, Martin
2007 - English
In this paper the cepstral vocoder is utilized in speech enhancement. In the analysis step first an algorithm for suppression of noise is used and then the estimation of the cepstral model follows, which leads to more reliable speech parameters. The speech is then synthesized by the cepstral vocoder, which works in the source-filter mode. The output speech is compared with speech enhanced by standard algorithm like spectral subtraction and Log Spectral Amplitude (LSA) estimator. V příspěvku je popsáno zvýraznění řeči pomocí kepstrálního vokodéru. V části analýzy je prvně použit algoritmus pro potlačení šumu, dále následuje robustní odhad parametrů kepstrálního modelu, což vede k přesnějšímu odhadu parametrů. Řeč je potom syntetizována pomocí klasického kepstrálního vokodéru. Výsledky jsou porovnány se standardními algoritmy jako je spektrální odečítání a LSA (Log Spectral Amplitude) algoritmus.

Šimša, Jan
2007 - English
The contribution concentrates on detection of CDMA signals by linear adaptive blind MMSE detectors. Some rules of adaptation and their parameters are discussed.
