Done, William John | Estimation of the parameters of an autoregressive process in the presence of additive white noise | Applications of linear prediction (LP) algorithms have been successful in modeling various physical processes. In the area of speech analysis this has resulted in the development of LP vocoders, devices used in digital speech communication systems. The LP algorithms used in speech and other areas ar... | Autoregressive process; Linear prediction algorithms; All-pole model | 1979 |

Miller, Jan D. | Screening and classification | The processing of minerals almost invariably involves the reduction in size of the minerals contained in an ore to effect liberation of disseminated values or, in other instances, to effect increased surface area. Separation of solids according to size usually is undertaken to promote maximum produc... | Mesh; Mechanical; Separation | 1973 |

Hawkes, Kristen | Alyawara plant use and optimal foraging theory | Various authors have remarked on the importance of seeds in the pre-European diet of central Australian Aborigines. The Alyawara, an Arandic-speaking group, were typical in this respect. They collected edible seeds from nearly half the eighty-five plant species in their traditional subsistence inven... | Australia; Aborigines; Foraging; Seeds | 1981 |
