Anomaly detection for environmental noise monitoring
… level is the preferred measure for continuous environmental noise monitoring over raw audio because accepted standards and devices exist, these data do not compromise voice privacy, and thus an octave-band sound meter can legally collect data in public. By setting up an experiment that …

Mitigating transit noise through urban planning and design
… can be used for path mitigation of transit noise. Noise problems from rail transit systems persist despite the existence of at-source noise reduction techniques for rail transit systems and substantial research on architectural acoustic solutions. Conventional planning literature suggests …

Feature extraction and normalization in SVM speaker verification using telephone speech
… The SVM, like other classifiers is vulnerable to environmental noise, distortions from transmission over communication channels such as the telephone channel, and intersession variability.

Dynamic lighting and its impact on the behaviour of marine invertebrates
… To mitigate or exploit the impacts that environmental noise may have on their sensory systems, many animals adapt their behaviour when exposed to environmental stimuli that interfere with their ability to detect information from their habitat. Understanding if and how animals are affected …

Pattern formation in geochemical systems.
… different geologic environments. The impact of environmental noise is investigated on a model of oscillatory zoning in plagioclase feldspar. It is shown that environmental noise can lead to pattern formation such as oscillatory zoning, even when no deterministic periodic solutions exist. …

Dynamically Corrected Quantum Control: A Geometrical Framework
… quantum control and suppressing the unwanted environmental noise has been one of the essential challenges in developing quantum information technologies. In the past, driving pulse sequences based on Dirac delta functions or square wave functions, such as Hahn spin echo or CPMG, have been …

A superconducting flux QuBit : measurement, noise and control
… is developed to study qubit decoherence by environmental noise. The dynamic control approach is applied for preventing off-resonant leakage during gate operations and for de-coupling the qubit from noise.

High Fidelity Universal Gates Performed on a Continuously-Decoupled Coherence Enhanced Transmon Qubit
… decoupled from pure dephasing resulting from environmental noise. This technique can expand operational ranges of qubits–such as allowing the high-coherence operation of a flux-tunable qubit far away from its flux-insensitive sweet-spot; broadening our selection of viable qubits by making …

Engineering Noise-Protected Superconducting Qubits
… and the parameters to protect the qubit from environmental noise. Some of the noise-protected superconducting qubits have the potential to overcome the coherence limitations of transmons, which is often dominated by energy relaxation. Here we study the zero-pi qubit, the superconducting …

A Methodology for Agricultural Robotics development
… is moved into position under conditions of high environmental noise and uncertainty; this process is referred to here as Approach. Third, the lettuces are harvested with a custom designed end effector that incorporates a camera, pneumatics, a belt drive and a soft gripper. The general name given …

Large-scale programmable silicon photonics for quantum and classical machine learning
… energy-efficient operations, and low coupling to environmental noise. Furthermore, recent advances in foundry-based manufacturing platforms have enabled the emerging field of integrated systems photonics. In contrast to their bulk optics counterparts, these systems can co-integrate dense ensembles …

The prediction of industrial noise and its transmission through metal cladding systems
Environmental noise is an issue of increasing concern which has resulted in muchlegislation over recent years. A large proportion of noise complaints arise fromindustrial and commercial premises. This thesis therefore aims to take a significant steptowards the provision of an accurate engineering …

Techniques for noise suppression and robust control in spin-based quantum information processors
… processor is the control and suppression of environmental noise that decoheres the quantum system and causes it to behave classically. Environmental errors may be dynamically suppressed by applying coherent control pulses to the qubits that decouple the environment. However, the pulses …

The effects of noise exposure and genetic background on auditory-evoked behaviors in larval zebrafish
… can be influenced by extrinsic factors, such as environmental noise, and intrinsic factors, such as genes and arousal. How do these factors interact and influence auditory-related behaviors? I addressed this question in the larval zebrafish (Danio rerio). Zebrafish have been a powerful genetic …
