The package includes 3 Matlab-interfaces to the c-code:
1. inference.m
An interface to the full inference package, includes several methods for
approximate inference: Loopy Belief Propagation, Generalized Belief
Propagation, Mean-Field approximation, and 4 monte-carlo sampling methods
(Metropolis, Gibbs, Wolff, Swendsen-Wang).
Use "help inference" from Matlab to see all options for usage.
2. gbp_preprocess.m and gbp.m
These 2 interfaces split Generalized Belief Propagation into the pre-process
stage (gbp_preprocess.m) and the inference stage (gbp.m), so the user may use
only one of them, or changing some parameters in between.
Use "help gbp_preprocess" and "help gbp" from Matlab.
3. simulatedAnnealing.m
An interface to the simulated-annealing c-code. This code uses Metropolis
sampling method, the same one used for inference.
Use "help simulatedAnnealing" from Matlab.
The goal of SPID is to provide the user with tools capable to simulate, preprocess, process and classify in vivo and ex vivo MRS signals. These tools are embedded in a matlab graphical user interface (GUI). (Pre)processing and classification methods can also be automatically run in a row using the matlab command line
Export a vertices/faces patch to an STL triangular mesh.This is based heavily on Bill McDonald s previous work, simply enabling his output functions for a different form of input.
NeC4.5 is a variant of C4.5 decision tree, which could generate decision trees more accurate than standard C4.5 decision trees, through regarding a neural network ensemble as a pre-process of C4.5 decision tree.
Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries.
We emphasize libraries that work well with the C++ Standard Library. Boost libraries are intended to be widely useful, and usable across a broad spectrum of applications. The Boost license encourages both commercial and non-commercial use.
We aim to establish "existing practice" and provide reference implementations so that Boost libraries are suitable for eventual standardization. Ten Boost libraries are already included in the C++ Standards Committee s Library Technical Report (TR1) as a step toward becoming part of a future C++ Standard. More Boost libraries are proposed for the upcoming TR2.
Boost works on almost any modern operating system, including UNIX and Windows variants. Follow the Getting Started Guide to download and install Boost. Popular Linux and Unix distributions such as Fedora, Debian, and NetBSD include pre-built Boost packages. Boost may also already be available on your organization s internal web server.
Free open-source disk encryption software for Windows Vista/XP, Mac OS X, and Linux
Main Features:
* Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a real disk.
* Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash drive or hard drive.
* Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot authentication).
* Encryption is automatic, real-time (on-the-fly) and transparent.
* Provides two levels of plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the password:
1) Hidden volume (steganography) and hidden operating system.
2) No TrueCrypt volume can be identified (volumes cannot be distinguished from random data).
* Encryption algorithms: AES-256, Serpent, and Twofish. Mode of operation: XTS.
Further information regarding features of the software may be found in the:http://www.truecrypt.org/
Fast Fourier Transform power point
The rectangular window introduces broadening of any frequency components [`smearing鈥? and sidelobesthat may overlap with other frequency components [`leakage鈥?.
鈥he effect improves as Nincreases
鈥owever, the rectangle window has poor properties and better choices of wncan lead to better spectral properties [less leakage, in particular] 鈥搃.e. instead of just truncating the summation, we can pre-multiply by a suitable window function wnthat has better frequency domain properties.

The purpose of this project is to make it possible to remotely switch on a Webasto Thermo Top C water heater that is used to pre-heat the heating system of a car without starting the motor.
