Composition of the 1997 Hub-4 broadcast news test set is discussed. The composition is based on concurrent selection of a statistically equivalent test set for
The electrochemical behavior of niobium in a 52:48 mole ratio A1C1 3:NaC1 molten salt electrolyte was examined by liner sweep voltammetry, chronoamperometry and

Using a dynamic finite element model, we studied the interrelationships between acoustic source rise-time and plate thickness in steel plates. The source was
The first International Conference on Atomic and Molecular Data And Their Applications (ICAMDATA) took place at the National Institute of Standards and

In all types of communication, the ability to share information is often hindered because the meaning of information can be drastically affected by the context
As part of ongoing National Institute of Standards and Technology research on the development of a new generation of standard provisions for wind loads, we
The configuration of antennas at an Open Area Test site (OATS) for calibrations results in constructive and destructive electric fields. Regardless of the

Reduction in the total uncertainty of the NIST Watt Balance is limited by the present configuration of the experiment. Most of the major relative uncertainty
Commonly used methods for measuring reflections from the surface of an electronic display are often subject to large errors and ignore critical aspects of
Irreproducibility in some reflection measurement methods arises from the observance of the haze component of reflection (non-regular-specular, non-Lambertian)

We use a separated-oscillatory-field condensate interferometer to measure the time-evolution of the relative phase in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate
Two methods for absorption line (peak) evaluation based on center of gravity (CG) calculations are described and compared using spectra of the NIST standard
This is a case study in the design and analysis of a 9-site TREC-6 experiment aimed at comparing the performance of 12 interactive information retrieval (IR)

Step bunching results in striations even at relatively early stages of its development and in inclusions of mother liquor at the later stages. Therefore
Linear least-square modeling is a powerful modeling approach. Optimal piece-wise constant modeling is an important special case. In this paper we will develop a

The discharge coefficient in critical nozzles flowing N 2, Ar, CO 2, and H 2 in the Reynolds Number range (2,000 to 22,000) is studied computationally to assess
Potential improvements of the Coefficient of Performance (COP) were investigated for R-407C at cooling and heating conditions of a residential heat pump. The
The attention of wind engineers and extreme value climatologists has been focused in the last few decades on estimates of basic windspeeds, that is, wind speeds
