These representations are obtained by employing adaptive signal decompositions. They provide a tool to identify structures composing a signal and constitute an approach to represent a signal from its identified components. We use the matching pursuits algorithm, which is a greedy adaptive decomposition, that has the potential of decomposing a signal into coherent components. The dictionary employed is composed of damped sinusoids in order to obtain signal components closely related to power systems phenomena. In addition, we present an effective method to suppress the pre-echo and post-echo artifacts that often appear when using the matching pursuits. However, the use of a dictionary of damped sinusoids alone does not ensure that the decomposition will be meaningful in physical terms. To overcome this constraint, we develop a technique leading to efficient coherent damped-sinusoidal decompositions that are closely related to the physical phenomena being observed. The effectiveness of the proposed method for compression of synthetic and natural signals is tested, obtaining high compression ratios along with high signal-to-noise ratio.}, added-at = {2011-09-01T13:26:03.000+0200}, author = {Lovisolo, L. and da Silva, E.A.B. and Rodrigues, M.A.M. and Diniz, P.S.R.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2460653152f847dc2238bf564dc564c37/procomun}, doi = {10.1109/TSP.2005.855400}, file = {Lovisolo.Silva.ea2005.pdf:Lovisolo.Silva.ea2005.pdf:PDF}, interhash = {3cc68f67deb27dbc9ad669fcc6c99727}, intrahash = {460653152f847dc2238bf564dc564c37}, issn = {1053-587X}, journal = {Signal Processing, IEEE Transactions on}, keywords = {adaptive algorithm; algorithms; analysis; artifact; coherent compression; damped damping; data decomposition; echo electric faults; greedy iterative matching methods; monitoring; post-echo power pre-echo pursuit representation; signal sinusoids; suppression; system systems systems; time-frequency transient transients;}, month = {oct.}, number = 10, pages = { 3831 - 3846}, timestamp = {2011-09-01T13:26:03.000+0200}, title = {Efficient coherent adaptive representations of monitored electric signals in power systems using damped sinusoids}, volume = 53, year = 2005 } @article{Stringer2005, added-at = {2011-08-22T11:45:54.000+0200}, author = {Stringer, M. and Rode, J.A. and Toye, E.F. and Blackwell, A.F. and Simpson, A.R.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2ec59fef57bef4e3032601f7a4eaa0fe4/enitsirhc}, interhash = {5ba314bedd943ad0b9ea433d526cfc58}, intrahash = {ec59fef57bef4e3032601f7a4eaa0fe4}, journal = {Pervasive Computing, IEEE}, keywords = {iterative prototyping se softwareengineering tangible tangibleuserinterfaces userinterfaces}, number = 4, pages = {35 - 41}, timestamp = {2011-08-22T11:45:54.000+0200}, title = {The Webkit tangible user interface: a case study of iterative prototyping}, volume = 4, year = 2005 } @article{citeulike:414825, abstract = {Although the Wizard of Oz method for simulating system components is commonly used for evaluation in human-computer interaction, researchers and designers have only started to unlock this technique's potential.

To address this problem we present IDR, a participatory methodology for interdisciplinary techno-pedagogical design, drawing on the design patterns tradition (Alexander, Silverstein & Ishikawa, 1977) and the design research paradigm (DiSessa & Cobb, 2004). We discuss the iterative development and use of our methodology by a pan-European project team of educational researchers, software developers and teachers. We reflect on our experiences of the participatory nature of pattern design and discuss how, as a distributed team, we developed a set of over 120 design patterns, created using our freely available open source web toolkit.

We show that learning in this class of models suffers from a training bias. We propose a new family of methods, called Simulated ICA, which helps reducing this training bias by simulating inference during learning. Several variants of the method are introduced. They are both simple, efficient and scale well.

Its primary objective is to outline the basics of game development and show how prototyping tools can help educators set up an academic game development course. In this thesis you will also find a classification of many game development tools used in academia for teaching game development to students. The thesis lists advantages and disadvantages of those development tools for easy comparison. It also introduces different focus points in the education of game development as well as the approaches known to the author. Towards the end it demonstrates a rather extraordinary approach towards a game prototyping tool for academics using the high-level programming and multimedia environment Squeak. While not being used in the industry, it provides a solid learning approach to university students getting introduced to game development and programming. The author has derived some of his arguments for educational game development tools from discussions with industry veterans like Bob Bates, Bruce Shelley, Jochen Hamma, or David A. Smith, and leading game professors in Europe like Mark Overmars. The interviews alone make this thesis an interesting read for anyone remotely interested in supporting the academic offspring for game development. }, added-at = {2009-02-03T11:34:42.000+0100}, address = {Magdeburg}, author = {Nacke, Lennart}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/227d7579bc900815290f83f13617b0c10/acagamic}, interhash = {5c4b0eec44a47f53409f605e92a513ef}, intrahash = {27d7579bc900815290f83f13617b0c10}, keywords = {computerscience development education educational facilitate game gamedesign gamedevelopment gameprogramming iterative mastersthesis prototyping rapid smalltalk squeak students teaching thesis tool}, month = {December}, school = {Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg}, timestamp = {2009-02-03T11:34:42.000+0100}, title = {Facilitating the Education of Game Development}, type = {Diplomarbeit}, url = {http://thesis.pxfx.de/}, year = 2005 }
