The choice of MMPP is motivated by its ability to capture the variability and correlation in moderate time scales while being analytically tractable. Important statistics of traffic burstiness are described and a customized moment-based fitting procedure of MMPP to traffic traces is presented. Our methodology of doing this is to examine whether the MMPP can be used to predict the performance of a queue to which MMPP sample paths and measured traffic traces are fed for comparison respectively, in addition to the goodness-of-fit test of MMPP. Numerical results and simulations show that the fitted MMPP can approximate multifractal traffic quite well, i.e. accurately predict the queueing performance.展开更多

The arrivals and service rates are modulated by the underlying continuous-time Markov chain. When the external environment operates in phase 2, customers become impatient. We focus our attention on the explicit expressions of the performance measures. For each case of c, the corresponding probability generating function and mean queue size are obtained. Several special cases are studied and numerical experiments are presented.展开更多

The duration distribution based hidden Markov module in a speaker independent large vocabulary mandarin speech recognition system was reconstructed from the feature vectors in the front-end detection stage. The goal was to improve the performance of the existing system by combining new features to the baseline feature vector. This paper also deals with errors associated with using a pre-emphasis filter in the front end processing of the present scheme, which causes an increase in the noise energy at high frequencies above 4 kHz and in some cases degrades the recognition accuracy. The experimental results show that eliminating the pre-emphasis filters from the pre-processing stage and using NLTFD with compensated DTEO combined with Mel frequency cepstrum components give a 21.95% reduction in the relative error rate compared to the conventional technique with 25 candidates used in the test.展开更多
