Further exploration of the possibilities and pitfalls of multidimensional scaling as a tool for the evaluation of the quality of synthesized speech [PDF]
, 2010 Multidimensional scaling (MDS) has been suggested as a useful tool for the evaluation of the quality of synthesized speech. However, it has not yet been extensively tested for its applica- tion in this specific area of evaluation.

Current Status and Challenges in Data Collection for Aerospace Coatings Deposited by Plasma Spraying
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.An innovative approach has been integrated into the GRENAT project to optimize plasma spraying and coating performance. Raw materials are accelerated and melted in the plasma generated by torches, creating coatings. Monitoring sensors collect process data which are combined with ex situ characterization data.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study applies machine learning regression to predict chromium layer thickness in decorative trivalent chromium electroplating, using 441 experiments from laboratory‐scale (1L) and pilot‐scale (14L) setups. Tree‐based models, particularly CatBoost, outperformed linear regression by capturing nonlinear parameter interactions (R2$R^2$ up to 0.77 ...

Multidimensional Scaling with Regional Restrictions for Facet Theory: An Application to Levi's Political Protest Data [PDF]
Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is often used for the analysis of correlation matrices of items generated by a facet theory design. The emphasis of the analysis is on regional hypotheses on the location of the items in the MDS solution.

A Practical Noise2Noise Denoising Pipeline for High‐Throughput Raman Spectroscopy
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A lightweight and reproducible denoising pipeline for high‐throughput Raman spectroscopy is introduced, based on a 1D convolutional autoencoder trained with a Noise2Noise strategy. Using only repeated short‐exposure acquisitions, the method suppresses stochastic noise without reference spectra, enabling reliable spectral reconstruction while preserving

On a Multidimensional Cluster Scaling [PDF]
, 2014 This paper proposes a multidimensional cluster scaling (MDCS) which obtains scaling of multidimensional clus- ters (or groups). Conventional multidimensional scaling is well known as a method to obtain the scaling of multidi- mensional objects.
