A novel framework for extracting moment-based fingerprint features in specific emitter identification

EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2023
Extensive experiments illustrate that moments and their derivations can act as effective fingerprint features for specific emitter identification. Nevertheless, the lack of mechanistic explanation restricts the moment-based fingerprint features to a ...

Active inference unifies intentional and conflict-resolution imperatives of motor control

PLoS Computational Biology, 2022
The field of motor control has long focused on the achievement of external goals through action (e.g., reaching and grasping objects). However, recent studies in conditions of multisensory conflict, such as when a subject experiences the rubber hand ...

Characterization of the Anomalous Vibration Response of an Intentionally Mistuned LPT Rotor

Machines, 2022
The wind tunnel facility at the Centro de Tecnologías Aeronáuticas was used to perform a set of experiments to study the effect of intentional mistuning on the forced response behavior of an aerodynamically unstable low-pressure turbine rotor.
