“…The F 0 control is implemented through a third order critically damped linear system, in which the total response is the remain component given by formula (1), where the first term x t ( ) is the forced response of the system which is the pitch target and the second term is the natural response of the system. The transient coefficients c, d and g are calculated based on the initial F 0 dynamic state and the pitch target of the specified segment.…”

Synthesizing tones plays an important role in text-to-speech systems of tonal languages. To accomplish this, the two important steps are to determine the pitch markers of voice utterances and synthesize F0 trajectories for lexical tones. In this paper, we propose two efficient algorithms, one of them is to locate the pitch markers at the peaks of the cumulative signal of each voiced part of the input utterance and the other is to generate F0 trajectories of tones with quantitative target approximation (qTA) parameters of Xu model. The experimentation has shown that the proposed algorithms present pitch markers with high accuracy which has enabled us to generate tones with complex shapes.

“…Radiology information systems (RIS) have been introduced much earlier than EMRs for efficient ordering and scheduling, and were later integrated with the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) for increased workflow efficiency in radiology departments [13]. For example, this integration saved 68 min per radiologist per day, and reduced the average uncorrected or missed errors by 21 [10]. PACS will eventually be replaced by a Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA) [4] which can be used for more than only radiology imaging (e.g.…”

Electronic medical records (EMRs), often also referred to as electronic health records (EHRs), are a major source of clinical data (although EMR and EHR have subtle differences). ("EHR (electronic health record) vs. EMR (electronic medical record)," [6]) EMRs are computerized medical information systems that collect, store and display patient information. They are means to create legible and organized recordings and to access clinical information about individual patients. EMRs have been described as an important tool to reduce medical errors and improve information sharing among physicians [1]. Nevertheless, there are many barriers that limit EMR adoption, varying from time, cost, security concerns and vendor trust to absence of computer skills for the physician [1]. To some extent such barriers can be lowered by using a framework for systematic EMR implementation [2]. On the other hand, expectations about using EHRs need to be tempered by practical considerations, recognizing that even those countries with relatively high rates of EHR penetration have achieved only limited successes in using EHR data for population health [7]. To what extent EMRs effectively succeed in improving quality of care and patient safety, remains a matter of debate [12,16].

“…This saves radiologists up to 81 seconds per study (31-81 seconds depending on study type), which can add up to 68 minutes saved per day given an average workload. 3 With increasing imaging volume and pressures for faster turnaround times, these significant time savings from structured templates and simple backend optimizations can have a real impact.…”
