Recently, [28] proposed a new SMC algorithm, the particle-based rapid incremental smoother (PaRIS), to approximate on-the-fly (i.e., using the observations as they are received) smoothed expectations of additive functionals.
MFD aims to ensure users receive a smooth viewing experience without buffering or stuttering despite of varying network conditions, regardless of the viewing device, over mobile as well as wire-line broadband networks.
In Listening for Wiggo, the equivalent of the postie was Lynda Snell, the dame who runs the Ambridge pantomime each year, and who received the Smooth and Steady prize (a gentler contest for Ambridgians too old to risk the Rough and Tumble), from the special guest.
Results from the tests with the healthy subject proved the overall system usability: the subject could walk with the device without being hindered and while he received a smooth assistive flexion extension torque profile on both hip articulations.
For small time constants (e.g. 3 ms), IF IF networks' ability to engage in oscillatory dynamics was strongly impaired, while for large time constants (e.g. 50 ms), these networks behaved more similarly to those receiving a smooth sinusoidal input.
Sprague Dawley Rats (male, 12.4 ± 0.14 weeks old, Harlan, Haslett, MI) received a smooth titanium Kirschner wires (K-wire; Ti-6Al-4 V, 24 mm length, 1.25 mm diameter; Synthes, Monument, CO) in the medullary canal of the femur, either bilaterally or unilaterally as described in the study design.
If authors get their colleagues' backs up by being dogmatic or impolite, I would venture to suggest that they would, on the whole, be less likely to receive a nice smooth ride when these same colleagues review their manuscript.
So the public bodies wishing to build new hospitals, schools, prisons and roads deliberately set the "public sector comparator" higher than the private sector bids they receive, in order to smooth the way for private money.
Shape restricted smoothing splines receive considerable attention, motivated by many important applications in science and engineering.
Accusations have been made in the Irish parliament by Mick Wallace, an independent leftwing TD, that local politicians received bribes to smooth the passage of the sell off.
