(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
Vaccination with the minor capsid protein L2, notably the 17–36 neutralizing epitope, induces broadly protective antibodies, although the neutralizing titers attained in serum are substantially lower than for the licensed ...
Histogram-based thresholding in discrete wavelet transform for partial discharge signal denoising
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
White noise is a major interference source that affects the partial discharge (PD) signal detection and recognition. Wavelet shrinkage denoising methods can efficiently reject the white noise embedded in the PD signal ...
