Re-creating the social, economic and demographic life-cycles of ordinary people is one way in which historians might engage with the complex continuities and changes which underlay the development of early modern communities. Little, however, has been written on the ways in which historians might deploy computers, rather than card indexes, to the task of identifying such life cycles from the jumble of the sources generated by local and national administration. This article suggests that multiple-source linkage is central to historical and demographic analysis, and reviews, in broad outline, some of the procedures adopted in a study which aims at large scale life cycle reconstruction.

When multiple sources contribute competitively to the noise level, multi-channel control architecture is needed, leading to more cost and time for control computation. We, hence, are concerned with a single-channel control method with a single-reference signal obtained from a linear combination of the multiple source signals. First, we selected 3 source signal sensors for the reference signals and the error sensor, selected a proper actuator and designed the controllers: 3 cases of single-channel feedforward controllers with a single-reference signal respectively from the source signals, a multi-channel feedforward controller with the reference signals from the source signals, and the proposed controller with the reference signal from weighted sum of the source signals. The weighting factors and the filter coefficients of the controller were determined by the FxLMS algorithm. An experiment was then performed to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method comparing the control performance with other methods for a tower air conditioner. The overall sound pressure level (SPL) detected by the error sensor is compared to evaluate their performance. The reduction in the overall SPL was obtained by 4.74 dB, 1.96 dB and 6.62 dB, respectively, when using each of the 3 reference signals. Also, the overall SPL was reduced by 7.12 dB when using the multi-reference controller and by 7.66 dB when using the proposed controller. Conclusively, under the multiple source contribution, a single-channel feed forward controller with the reference signal from a weighted sum of the source signals works well with lower cost than multi-channel feedforward controller.

AbstractIn the context of this research work, we study the so-called problem of full snapshot reconstruction in hybrid antenna array structures that are utilized in mmWave communication systems. It enables the recovery of the snapshots that would have been obtained if a conventional (non-hybrid) uniform linear antenna array was employed. The problem is considered at the receiver side where the hybrid architecture exploits in a novel way the antenna elements of a uniform linear array. To this end, the recommended scheme is properly designed so as to be applicable to overlapping and non-overlapping architectures. Moreover, the full snapshot recoverability is addressed for two cases, namely for time-varying and constant signal sources. Simulation results are also presented to illustrate the consistency between the theoretically predicted behaviors and the simulated results, and the performance of the proposed scheme in terms angle-of-arrival estimation, when compared to the conventional MUSIC algorithm and a recently proposed hybrid version of MUSIC (H-MUSIC).

Multiple blind sound source localization is the key technology for a myriad of applications such as robotic navigation and indoor localization. However, existing solutions can only locate a few sound sources simultaneously due to the limitation imposed by the number of microphones in an array. To this end, this paper proposes a novel multiple blind sound source localization algorithms using Source seParation and BeamForming (SPBF). Our algorithm overcomes the limitations of existing solutions and can locate more blind sources than the number of microphones in an array. Specifically, we propose a novel microphone layout, enabling salient multiple source separation while still preserving their arrival time information. After then, we perform source localization via beamforming using each demixed source. Such a design allows minimizing mutual interference from different sound sources, thereby enabling finer AoA estimation. To further enhance localization performance, we design a new spectral weighting function that can enhance the signal-to-noise-ratio, allowing a relatively narrow beam and thus finer angle of arrival estimation. Simulation experiments under typical indoor situations demonstrate a maximum of only 4∘ even under up to 14 sources.
