Human voice identification based on the detection of fundamental harmonics

The article is devoted to the development of a system for biometric identification of a person by voice. The article discusses algorithms for the analysis of audio recordings for biometric identification of a person by voice. The technique of experimental research is considered, the process of processing the results of identification is described. Used algorithms MFCC and PLP for digital processing and analysis of audio recordings. An algorithm based on multi-criteria optimization has been developed for acoustic speech analysis. Various algorithms are used, such as hidden Markov models (CMM or HMM), as well as a model of a mixture of Gaussian distributions (GMM or GMM); in recent years, Wave Net neural networks have been actively used. The result of determining the tone of speech and the content of speech for the purposes of identification by voice is obtained.In the work, to compare the recorded voice with the saved voice for the purpose of personal identification, an unlimited text independent recognition system was applied using the Gaussian mixture model. The recorded voices were processed and stored during the registration phase, and the probing voices were used for comparison during the verification/ recognition phase of the system. For biometric identification of a person by voice, the MFCC and PLP algorithms were used for digital processing and analysis of audio recordings. The result obtained makes it possible to determine the fundamental harmonics of speech for the purposes of identification by voice. The "Multiparameter automated system of biometric identification of a person" was developed on the Visual FoxPro DBMS. Today, speech identification and authentication is used in a wide range of applications ranging from smartphone applications to access control systems. Additional confirmation of the relevance of this area is the many research centers.

The timer compression of information

This paper is devoted to a transform-based quantitative data compression technique involving rapid enumeration in a unary-binary time-based numeral system (NS). The symbols comprising the alphabets of human-computer interaction languages (HCIL), which are used in an informational message (IM), are collected in primary code tables, such as the ASCII table. The statistical-oriented data compression method using unconventional timer encryption and encoding information are proposed by us. It was constructed probability - discrete model of the set of character sequences and characterized some probabilistic algorithms associated with the recovery of text by its public key and its cipher. We find the possibility of parallel implementation of this method by building a block of timer tags. The necessary complex assessments are made. The method can be used to compress SMS messages. Probabilistic-statistical analysis and evaluation of their effectiveness are obtained.

Multiscale Graph Neural Network for Turbulent Flow-Thermal Prediction Around a Complex-Shaped Pin-Fin

This study presents the development of a domain-responsive edge-aware multiscale Graph Neural Network for predicting steady, turbulent flow and thermal behavior in a two-dimensional channel containing arbitrarily shaped complex pin-fin geometries. The training dataset was constructed through an automated framework that integrated geometry generation, meshing, and flow-field solutions in ANSYS Fluent. The pin-fin geometry was parameterized using piecewise cubic splines, producing 1,000 diverse configurations through Latin Hypercube Sampling. Each simulation was converted into a graph structure, where nodes carried a feature vector containing spatial coordinates, a normalized streamwise position, one-hot boundary indicators, and a signed distance to the nearest boundary such as wall. This graph structure served as input to the newly developed Graph Neural Network, which was trained to predict temperature, velocity magnitude, and pressure at each node using data from ANSYS. The network predicted fields with outstanding accuracy, capturing boundary layers, recirculation, and the stagnation region upstream of the pin-fins while reducing wall time by 2-3 orders of magnitude. In conclusion, the novel graph neural network offered a fast and reliable surrogate for simulations in complex flow configurations.

An ultrastructural study of the anal papillae of aedes campestris larvae and of the hind gut of Aedes campestris and Aedes aegypti larvae

The basic morphology and ultrastructure of the anal papillae of a saline water mosquito larva (Aedes campestris) have been investigated under two physiological conditions: (a) normal hyperosmotic external medium and (b) dilute hyposmotic medium. The ultrastructure of these organs suggests that they are not rudimentary, but rather are made up of cells that are morphologically specialized for transport. The anal papillae appear active in both the normal and dilute media and possible functions under the two physiological conditions are discussed. No major qualitative or quantitative differences were observed with the large change in external medium. This suggests that physiologically-demonstrated adaptive changes may require only minor structural alterations. The morphology and ultrastructure of the hind gut of A. campestris larvae were compared under two physiological conditions; normal (requiring hyporegulation) and dilute (requiring hyperegulation) external medium. No differences which might be associated with hyporegulation were observed. The rectum of A. campestri s was compared to that of Aedes aegypti. The rectum in the former is composed of two regions, an anterior and posterior rectum, while in Aedes aegypti, an exclusively freshwater mosquito larva, the rectum has only a single region. The rectal epithelia in both insects studied have morphological specializations for water and ion transport, and a consideration of quantative differences suggests that the posterior rectum is unique to Aedes campestris and hence could be responsible for the ability of this species to produce hyperosmotic urine. When the posterior rectal epithelium is compared to similar transporting epithelia in previously-studied terrestrial insects, several ultra-structural differences were noted. It is suggested that the mechanism of hyperosmotic urine production in saline water insects may be different from that in terrestrial insects. Several possible mechanisms of hyperosmotic urine production are discussed.

Plasma and tissue a-tocopherol concentrations and meat colour stability in sheep grazing saltbush (Atriplex spp.)

Dry senesced pastures available during the summer and autumn period in Western Australia and other areas with a Mediterranean climate are low in vitamin E. The use of expensive and labour-intensive supplements to prevent nutritional myopathy induced by vitamin E deficiency in weaner sheep is common. Low vitamin E concentrations in the muscle preslaughter can also reduce the shelf life of meat. There is growing interest in incorporating saltbush into farming systems in Western Australia. The potential for saltbush to boost the vitamin E status of sheep and improve the shelf life of meat was investigated. Fifty (2 × 25) 18-month-old Merino hogget wethers (average liveweight 48 kg) were grazed on either a saltbush-dominant saline pasture or on a ‘control’ dry pasture, stubble plot for 14 weeks. At the start of the experiment, all animals were orally supplemented with 2500 IU of dl-a-tocopherol acetate in 6.25 mL solution. The a-tocopherol content in saltbush was 139 and 116 mg/kg dry matter for old man and river saltbush, respectively. Concentrations of a-tocopherol were measured in plasma at Weeks 0, 4, 8, and 12 and in muscle and liver samples taken at slaughter. Grazing on saltbush significantly elevated a-tocopherol concentrations in the liver and muscle compared with grazing on dry pasture, well above the threshold for vitamin E inadequacy (P &amp;lt; 0.001). Plasma a-tocopherol concentrations in sheep fed saltbush increased up to Week 8 and then decreased until the end of the experiment as availability of saltbush declined (P &amp;lt; 0.05). Plasma a-tocopherol in sheep fed dry pasture increased in the first 4 weeks due to the initial vitamin E treatment but declined thereafter, indicating that the pasture was low in vitamin E. The high muscle concentrations of a-tocopherol in sheep fed saltbush also improved colour stability and may have had an influence on drip and cooking loss. The meat from the saltbush-grazed sheep was moister but drip and cooking loss was the same as from the drier meat of the control sheep. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that saltbush is a potential vitamin E source for sheep.

Exploring Mispricing in the Term Structure of CDS Spreads

Abstract Based on a reduced-form model of credit risk, we explore mispricing in the credit default swaps (CDS) spreads of North American companies and its economic content. Specifically, we develop a trading strategy using the model to trade out of sample market-neutral portfolios across the term structure of CDS contracts. Our empirical results show that the trading strategy exhibits abnormally large returns, confirming the existence and persistence of a mispricing. The aggregate returns of the trading strategy are positively related to the square of market-wide credit and liquidity risks, indicating that the mispricing is more pronounced when the market is more volatile. When implemented on the Markit data, the strategy shows significant economic value even after controlling for realistic transaction costs.

A Long Hard Climb – Getting from the Bottom to the Top of the CLIL Incline

Even in an educational system which imposes many formal restrictions, has limited financial resources and is not renowned for its success at language teaching and learning, English Medium Programmes (EMP) implementing a CLIL approach can be successful. This success depends on multiple factors: the support of management at all levels; a belief in the (added) value of EMPs; determination to identify and achieve shared objectives; an awareness in all stakeholders of what EMPs entail with particular consideration of the implications of teaching/learning in an “international” classroom; and a high degree of interaction and cooperation between discipline teachers and language teachers. Only when this cooperation is fully operational can we talk about CLIL rather than ESP/EAP running alongside the core disciplines of the EMP. This paper outlines the pitfalls, challenges and achievements of the transformation of an Italian “Laurea Specialistica” into an International English Medium CLIL Programme.

Nonconvulsive Epileptiform Activity Appearing as Ataxia

Ataxia may be the result of otherwise silent epileptiform activity. We studied three patients, between 3 and 5 years of age, whose initial complaint was unsteadiness of gait. Each one of the patients had an epileptiform EEG with bursts of slow spike and wave activity. Each had normal results of diagnostic studies for other causes of ataxia. Specifically, none had anticonvulsant drug levels in the toxic range. Modification of the anticonvulsant regimen resulted in dramatic clinical and EEG improvement. Nonconvulsive epileptiform activity has been called pseudoataxia in the scant literature on this subject. This process should be considered in the evaluation of ataxia in children.

Lectin Microarray-Based Sero-Biomarker Verification Targeting Aberrant <i>O</i>-Linked Glycosylation on Mucin 1

Glycoform of mucin 1 (MUC1) in cancerous cells changes markedly with cell differentiation, and thus, qualitative detection and verification of the MUC1 glycosylation changes have potential diagnostic value. We have developed an ultrasensitive method to detect the changes in cholangiocarcinoma (CC), which produces MUC1, and applied it in the diagnostics development. The focused glycan analysis using 43-lectin-immobilized microarray could obtain the glycan profiles of sialylated MUC1 in 5 μL of sera. The high-throughput analysis detected disease-specific alterations of glycosylation, and the statistical analysis confirmed that use of Wisteria floribunda agglutinin (WFA) alone produced a diagnostic score sufficient for discriminating 33 CC cases from 40 hepatolithiasis patients and 48 normal controls (p < 0.0001). The CC-related glycosylation change was verified by the lectin-antibody sandwich ELISA with WFA in two cohorts: (1) 78 Opisthorchis viverrini infected patients without CC and 78 with CC, (2) 33 CC patients and 40 hepatolithiasis patients (the same cohort used for the above lectin microarray). The WFA positivity distinguished patients with CC (opisthorchiasis: p < 0.0001, odds ratio = 1.047; hepatolithiasis: p = 0.0002, odds ratio = 1.018). Sensitive detection of qualitative alterations of sialylated MUC1 glycosylation is indispensable for the development of our glycodiagnostic test for CC.

Frequency Control and Power Sharing in Combined Heat and Power Networks

We consider the problem of using district heating systems as ancillary services for primary frequency control in power networks. We propose a novel power sharing scheme for heating systems based on the average temperature, which enables an optimal power allocation among the diverse heat sources without having a prior knowledge of the disturbances. We then discuss two approaches for heating systems to contribute to frequency regulation in power networks. We show that both approaches ensure stability in the combined heat and power network and facilitate optimal power allocation among the different energy sources.

[Randomized and controlled single-case study--a scientific method for individual and difficult therapy decisions in clinical practice exemplified with methotrexate use in asthma].

For various reasons, optimal individual therapies cannot always be derived from monitored, large-scale random studies. This applies particularly to delicate decisions on the treatment of chronically ill patients. In such situations, random, controlled and "double-blind" individual case studies with "cross-over" can be a solution. The procedure is adjusted to suit the individual patient. In many two-part treatment phases, the patient receives the active medication and an alternative/placebo. The sequence is adapted to the randomization. Neither patient nor doctor knows what the preparations are. The aims of the study are primarily oriented towards the wellbeing of the individual patient. The problems of individual optimization of therapy in practice are presented, as are the individual case study methods. Their potential application and limits and their value are discussed and illustrated by means of an actual case study.

Study on genetic variability parameters in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] genotypes

Thirty-two soybean genotypes were assessed to estimate genetic variability parameters in RBD design with three replications during 2021. The results of the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) revealed significant variation across the genotypes for each trait studied which showed high variability in experimental material. The higher magnitude (&gt;20%) of GCV and PCV were exhibited by seed yield per plant (33.71% and 35.60%) followed by biological yield per plant (26.64% and 28.47%), number of pods per plant (24.56% and 25.13%) and number of branches per plant (20.24% and 20.75%), respectively. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance showed by seed yield, biological yield, number of pods, number of branches per plant, harvest index, 100-seed weight and plant height, indicating additive gene action and provides the chance for selection-based development of these traits. In this study, higher yield was reported for AUKS 213 (12.44 g) followed by AUKS 259 (11.14 g), AUKS 263 (10.82 g), AUKS 262 (10.44 g) and AUKS 264 (9.99 g) genotypes as per their mean values.

Effect of chronic hyperglycaemia on the parameters of protein, lipid metabolism and platelet-coagulation haemostasis in acromegaly

The aim of the research. Assessing the impact of chronic hyperglycemia on the parameters of the protein, lipid metabolism and platelet-coagulation haemostasis in patients with active phase of acromegaly. Materials and methods: The research included 58 patients with the active phase of acromegaly (36 women and 28 men), median age 50 (43, 57) years, disease duration 9.0 (5.0, 15.0) years, 26 of whom had verified diabetes mellitus. Results: Biochemical parameters and parameters of haemostasis in patients with active phase of acromegaly with normoglycemia differed from the control group by higher levels of total cholesterol, high-density lipoproteins, an increase in the average volume of platelet aggregation and enhancement of their function. The presence of diabetes mellitus was accompanied by the increase in concentration of total cholesterol, triglycerides, decrease in high-density lipoproteins, and increase in fibrinogen concentration, soluble fibrin-monomeasured complexes, as well as reduction of disaggregation properties of platelets and enhancement of ejection reactions. Conclusion: The presence of diabetes mellitus with acromegaly can be regarded as a significant risk factor for atherogenic dyslipidemia, hyperfibrinogenemia and platelet disfunction.

Overvoting and the Equality of Voice under Instant-Runoff Voting in San Francisco

In 2004 San Francisco began using Instant-Runoff Voting for local elections. Early analyses revealed that after its inaugural use the rate at which voters ranked candidates dropped dramatically, and disqualifying errors on the ballots were more common in neighborhoods where more African-American and foreign-born citizens reside (Neely and Cook 2008). We extend the inquiry over time, examine other types of elections, and refine the methodology. Are some voters more than others able to exercise the franchise in these elections and, if so, what does that imply for the equality of political voice? We find no evidence that ranking candidates is in decline. Overvotes are more common in IRV than plurality contests, but such errors appear to be a function of complexity in general and not IRV per se. While they occur disproportionately in precincts with more African-American residents, and are often more likely where Latino, elderly, foreign-born, and less wealthy citizens reside, the pattern of overvoting is similar in both IRV and non-IRV contests. We discuss what these results imply for San Francisco and other jurisdictions using or considering similar election systems.

Motivation of Plateletpheresis Donors

Twenty randomly chosen voluntary plateletpheresis donors were interviewed in depth. Information on their family histories, past histories, present psychosocial adjustment, and history of blood donation was elicited. Most donors had a high level of commitment and drive to achieve, frequently related to low self‐image dating from childhood. The act of platelet donation had several important meanings for the subjects. It improved their self‐esteem, making them feel more worthy and responsible persons. It provided them with an opportunity to establish relationships with others. The data obtained in this survey suggest that the altruistic behavior of the voluntary donors should be seen both as an act of giving and also one of receiving emotional gratification which fulfills one's important psychological needs. Utilization of these data in recruitment of plateletpheresis donors is suggested.
