Multilingual Training and Adaptation in Speech Recognition

State-of-the-art acoustic models for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) are based on Hidden Markov Models (HMM) and Deep Neural Networks (DNN) and often require thousands of hours of transcribed speech data during training. Therefore, building multilingual ...

LTP of inhibition at PV interneuron output synapses requires developmental BMP signaling

Ralf Schneggenburger, Denys Osypenko, Christopher Clark, Evan Dean Vickers

Parvalbumin (PV)-expressing interneurons (PV-INs) mediate well-timed inhibition of cortical principal neurons, and plasticity of these interneurons is involved in map remodeling of primary sensory cortices during critical periods of development. To assess ...

Music enhances structural maturation of emotional processing neural pathways in very preterm infants

Nicolas Kunz, Laura Ioana Gui, François Lazeyras

Prematurity disrupts brain maturation by exposing the developing brain to different noxious stimuli present in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and depriving it from meaningful sensory inputs during a critical period of brain development, leading to ...

Learning (Good Handwriting In Greek) By Teaching (A Humanoid Robot)

Thibault Lucien Christian Asselborn, Wafa Monia Benkaouar Johal, Thanasis Hadzilacos

We report on a follow-up study of the Co-Writer project at EPFL [1]; we confirm their findings, extend the applicability to another language with a different alphabet (Greek) and go into an in-depth qualitative study of the child-robot relationship. The co ...

Design Concerns for In-body Antennas Based on Frequency Analysis of Fundamental Radiation Limitations

Anja Skrivervik, Zvonimir Sipus, Denys Nikolayev

Fundamental radiation limitations of in-body or implantable antennas should give us an estimate on the feasibility of some desired system. It was shown that near-field effects and distance to the body - freespace boundary are critical aspects, while the sh ...

Consensus guidelines for the use and interpretation of angiogenesis assays

Michele De Palma, George Coukos, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Elizabeth Anne Allen, Yan Gong

The formation of new blood vessels, or angiogenesis, is a complex process that plays important roles in growth and development, tissue and organ regeneration, as well as numerous pathological conditions. Angiogenesis undergoes multiple discrete steps that ...

Uso de tecnologias geo-espaciais comuns para o mapeamento de assentamentos informais

Vitor Pessoa Colombo

One of the greatest challenges for the socio-spatial integration of informal settlements to the “formal” urban fabric, equipped with basic infrastructures and services, is the critical lack of data on the populations and the built environments of those set ...

Redox Signaling by Reactive Electrophiles and Oxidants

Yimon Aye, Jesse Poganik

The concept of cell signaling in the context of nonenzyme-assisted protein modifications by reactive electrophilic and oxidative species, broadly known as redox signaling, is a uniquely complex topic that has been approached from numerous different and mul ...

Column-Parallel Dynamic TDC Reallocation in SPAD Sensor Module Fabricated in 180nm CMOS for Near Infrared Optical Tomography

Edoardo Charbon, Ivan Michel Antolovic, Chunmin Zhang, Scott Anthony Lindner, Juan Mata Pavia, Martin Wolf

A major problem for optical biomedical imaging methods, e.g. near-infrared optical tomography (NIROT), using time resolved SPAD sensors is a slow acquisition time, resulting in motion artefacts and decreased patient comfort. We present a new SPAD sensor mo ...

The programming of the social brain by stress during childhood and adolescence: from rodents to humans

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Stamatina Tzanoulinou

The quality and quantity of social experience is fundamental to an individual's health and well-being. Early life stress is known to be an important factor in the programming of the social brain that exerts detrimental effects on social behaviors. The peri ...
