Article Citation - WoS: 4Ramcess 2.x Framework-Expressive Voice Analysis for Realtime and Accurate Synthesis of Singing(Springer Verlag, 2008) d'Alessandro, Nicolas; Babacan, Onur; Bozkurt, Barış; Dubuisson, Thomas; Holzapfel, Andre; Kessous, Loic; Vlieghe, MaximeIn this paper we present the work that has been achieved in the context of the second version of the RAMCESS singing synthesis framework. The main improvement of this study is the integration of new algorithms for expressive voice analysis, especially the separation of the glottal source and the vocal tract. Realtime synthesis modules have also been refined. These elements have been integrated in an existing digital instrument: the HANDSKETCH 1.X, a bimanual controller. Moreover this digital instrument is compared to existing systems.Article Citation - WoS: 43Citation - Scopus: 48Adaptive Control of Redundant Robot Manipulators With Sub-Task Objectives(Cambridge University Press, 2009) Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Braganza, David; Burg, Timothy C.; Dawson, Darren M.In this paper, adaptive control of kinematically redundant robot manipulators is considered. An end-effector tracking controller is designed and the manipulator's kinematic redundancy is utilized to integrate a general sub-task controller for self-motion control. The control objectives are achieved by designing a feedback linearizing controller that includes a least-squares estimation algorithm to compensate for the parametric uncertainties. Numerical simulation results are presented to show the validity of the proposed controller.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Performance Evaluation of Multicast Miso-Ofdm Systems(Springer Verlag, 2008) Özbek, Berna; Le Ruyet, Didier; Khanfir, HajerIn this paper, we analyze the performance of multicast orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with single and multiple transmit antennas. We show that the resource allocation that includes the subcarrier allocation, bit loading, and the precoding vector selection in the multiple-input single-output (MISO) case is a difficult optimization problem. Consequently, we propose suboptimal algorithms based on the maximization of the sum data rate and the maximization of the minimum user data rate criteria. For practical application, we consider a complete transmission chain by combining powerful erasure codes with the proposed algorithms. Using this scheme, we guarantee that each user receives the same amount of information to decode the same data. Simulation results show that, for both single-input single-output (SISO)-OFDM and MISO-OFDM cases, the proposed multicast OFDM systems achieve gains over the worst user case algorithm.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 8Teleoperation With Kinematically Redundant Robot Manipulators With Sub-Task Objectives(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2008) Nath, Nitendra; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Dawson, Darren M.In this paper, control of nonlinear teleoperator systems where both the master and slave systems are kinematically redundant robot manipulators is addressed. The controller is developed under the assumption that the user and environmental input forces are unmeasurable. Lyapunovbased stability analysis is used to prove that the proposed controller yields asymptotic tracking results and ensures the coordination of the master and slave systems while satisfying a sub-task objective.Article A Novel All-Optical Routing Architecture for Optical Packet Switched Networks(Springer Verlag, 2006) Mocan, Bora; Dinleyici, Mehmet SalihIncreasing bandwidth demand, mostly driven by the Internet Protocol (IP), has made researchers consider to deploy all-optical devices into packet switched networks. Despite huge bandwidth of the optical communication links (optical fiber) the usable capacity is limited due to bottlenecks (congestions) at the switching nodes. In this paper, a novel all-optical routing architecture is proposed for optical packet switched networks. In the design, practical optical devices (gratings, threshold elements, optical delays, and couplers) have been improved and exploited in order to integrate into an all-optical routing device. The system has been implemented and simulated by using an photonics simulation package (VPI-Virtual Photonics). The packets conveying a three-bit routing information tag at the bit rate of 10 Gbps have been successfully routed between two links. Some of the components are standard tools of the simulation package and some needed to be designed using the transfer function or theory developed in the literature. Noise and losses associated to the nonideal nature of the components are considered in the simulation as well.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Device length requirement in slab/fiber evanescent coupler(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2000) Dinleyici, Mehmet SalihThe effective device lengths of the fiber half-coupler for various radii of curvatures was found. This calculated length was about a thousand times greater than that calculated by the model method. The device has enough effective interaction length. It also helps in finding the accuracy of estimations made by the CMT and modal method.
