This paper addresses the problem of unsupervised speech separation based on robust non-negative matrix factorization (RNMF) with ${\beta}$-divergence, when neither speech nor noise training data is available beforehand. We propose a robust version of non-negative matrix factorization, inspired by the recently developed sparse and low-rank decomposition, in which the data matrix is decomposed into the sum of a low-rank matrix and a sparse matrix. Efficient multiplicative update rules to minimize the ${\beta}$-divergence-based cost function are derived. A convolutional extension of the proposed algorithm is also proposed, which considers the time dependency of the non-negative noise bases. Experimental speech separation results show that the proposed convolutional RNMF successfully separates the repeating time-varying spectral structures from the magnitude spectrum of the mixture, and does so without any prior training.

In the present paper is presented a new matrix pencil-based numerical approach achieving the computation of the elemen-tary divisors of a given matrix $A \in C^{n\timesn}$ This computation is at-tained without performing similarity transformations and the whole procedure is based on the construction of the Piecewise Arithmetic Progression Sequence(PAPS) of the associated pencil $\lambda I_n$ -A of matrix A for all the appropriate values of $\lambda$ belonging to the set of eigenvalues of A. This technique produces a stable and accurate numerical algorithm working satisfactorily for matrices with a well defined eigenstructure. The whole technique can be applied for the computation of the first second and Jordan canonical form of a given matrix $A \in C^{n\timesn}$. The results are accurate for matrices possessing a well defined canonical form. In case of defective matrices indications of the most appropriately computed canonical form. In case of defective matrices indication of the most appropriately computed canonical form are given.

Most hard disk drives that apply the ramp load/unload technology unload the heads at the outer edge of the disk while the disk is rotating. During the unloading process, slider-disk contacts may occur by lift-off force and rebound of the slider. The main issue of this paper is to prevent the slider-disk contact by changing the state matrix. Because the state matrix is related to the suspension and slider, to change the state matrix means the structural change of the suspension and slider. We investigate influence for variation of the state matrix components and analyze the relation between the state matrix and the suspension/slider.

Methods for making scoring matrix based on phylogenetic tree for all possible exchanges of one amino acid with another. PFMT(Phylogenetic focused Mutation Tendency) matrix is different BLOSUM62 and PAM160 which are the most used scoring matrixes. This matrix calculates possibility of substitution from common ancestor to high spices. PFMT matrix scores substitution frequency in COGs databases which contain 152 KOGs's dataset. PFMT matrix usefully is able to compare between query sequence and sequences of more higher species and show detailed substitution relation of 20 amino acids.

Metal matrix composites with whisker reinforcements have significant potentials for demanding mechanical applications including defense, aerospace, and automotive industries. Especially metal matrix composites, which are reinforced with aluminum borate whisker, have been used leer the part of piston head in automobile because of good specific strength and wear resistance. In this study, AC4CH-based metal matrix composites with $Al_{18}$B$_{4}$ $O_{33}$ reinforcement have been produced using squeeze casting method, after T6 heat treatment, we evaluated fatigue life property of matrix and MMC composite and investigated fracture mechanism.m.

Marine ecosystems are often characterized by a high biological diversity, and it corresponds to a high chemical diversity. Up to present, more than 20,000 new bioactive substances have been isolated from marine organisms, where considerable numbers of these naturally occurring derivatives are developed as potential candidates for pharmaceutical application. In this process, screening of natural products from marine organisms that could potentially inhibit the expression of metalloproteinases has gained a huge popularity. Cancer is considered as one of the deadliest diseases in the medical field. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) can degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) components and play important roles in a variety of biological and pathological processes. Matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors (MMPIs) have been identified as potential therapeutic candidates for metastasis, arthritis, chronic inflammation and wrinkle formation.

In case of overalyered wrapping roll, beadmark shape appear at wrapping roll surface due to irregular wear between weld bead. Irregular wear of this is caused by difference of hardness between weld bead. This study aims at investigating which matrix is good for removing of beadmark at wrapping roll surface. So, we make specimen with martensitic matrix and austenitic matrix. The overlayered alloys were deposited 4 times on a SS41 steel plate using self-shielding flux cored arc welding method. Difference of hardness between weld bead of specimen with matrix of martensite was higher than specimen with matrix of austenite both as-welded and after heat treatment. Therefore, austenitic matrix is between than martensitic matrix for removing of beadmark of wrapping roll surface.

Generalized linear mixed models(GLMMs) are frequently used for the analysis of longitudinal categorical data when the subject-specific effects is of interest. In GLMMs, the structure of the random effects covariance matrix is important for the estimation of fixed effects and to explain subject and time variations. The estimation of the matrix is not simple because of the high dimension and the positive definiteness; subsequently, we practically use the simple structure of the covariance matrix such as AR(1). However, this strong assumption can result in biased estimates of the fixed effects. In this paper, we introduce Bayesian modeling approaches for the random effects covariance matrix using a modified Cholesky decomposition. The modified Cholesky decomposition approach has been used to explain a heterogenous random effects covariance matrix and the subsequent estimated covariance matrix will be positive definite. We analyze metabolic syndrome data from a Korean Genomic Epidemiology Study using these methods.

A cross-linked leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala) seed gum (CLLSG) matrix was prepared for the isolation of galactose-specific lectins by affinity chromatography. The matrix was evaluated for affinity with a known galactose-specific lectin from the seeds of snake gourd (Trichosanthes anguina). The matrix preparation was simple and inexpensive when compared to commercial galactose-specific matrices (i.e. about 1.5 US$/100 ml of matrix). The current method is also useful for the demonstration of the affinity chromatography technique in laboratories. Since leucaena seeds are abundant and inexpensive, and the matrix preparation is easy, CLLSG appears to be a promising tool for the separation of galactose-specific lectins.
