Speaker diarization in meetings domain by Nguyen, Trung Hieu

“…These techniques when adapted to meetings domain however perform poorer than expected since they do not exploit direction of arrival information, which is available in many meeting rooms with the presence of multiple microphones. Moreover, many of these techniques are involved with tunable parameters, which are presumably derived using external data. …”

Pembentukan karakter anak usia sekolah melalui surau by Remiswal Remiswal, Abdul Basit, Fauzan Azmi

“…This research successfully explored 1) Surau in the formation of character education for school-age children by carrying out a routine program in the form of discussing the book of the Malay Parukunan in which contains discussion of creeds, morals, and worship as well as reading the Qur'an and following wirid. 2) Form of development of character building for school-age children through surau with the activities of school-age children who are carried out every month has been carried out, besides that the implementation of PHBI activities has been carried out following the schedule listed in the calendar. 3) Supporting factors for the formation of school-age children through surau are: the participation and active role of the community, supporting facilities and infrastructures in every activity carried out by school-age children, such as the presence of chalkboard, microphones, platform, and the room of the mosque big enough to accommodate those present. the attention of the management of the mosque to the activities of school-age children is also one of the factors of the success of the activities carried out.…”

Inhibition of Mitochondrial Division Attenuates Cisplatin-Induced Toxicity in the Neuromast Hair Cells by Jonathon W. Vargo, Steven N. Walker, Suhasini R. Gopal, Aditi R. Deshmukh, Brian M. McDermott Jr., Brian M. McDermott Jr., Brian M. McDermott Jr., Brian M. McDermott Jr., Kumar N. Alagramam, Kumar N. Alagramam, Kumar N. Alagramam, Ruben Stepanyan, Ruben Stepanyan

“…To assess hair cell function, we used the FM1-43 uptake assay and recordings of neuromast microphonic potentials. The results showed that mdivi-1 protected hair cells of lateral line neuromasts when they were challenged by 50 μM of cisplatin: viability of hair cells increased almost twice from 19% ± 1.8% to 36% ± 2.0% (p < 0.001). …”

Data converters using continuous time sigma delta modulators with VCO-based integrator and quantizer for ultra low power applications by Neelakantan Narasimman

“…Early detection/monitoring of diastolic dysfunctions in the human heart can be done using a non-invasive, highly sensitive, portable sound recording system with cardiac sound wave characterization. Capacitive MEMS microphones, which are based on the modulation of electrical capacitance by the acoustic pressure wave from the heart sound, are an excellent choice for the recording device. …”

Black Noise, White Ears: Resilience, Rap, and the Killing of Jordan Davis by William Cheng

“…I have drawn insights from these sources as well as from my own multiple viewings of the complete trial footage.[19] But I’m supplementing this research with materials that eluded mainstream press: Dunn’s jailhouse letters and phone calls (largely omitted from the trial’s formal proceedings); stenographers’ transcriptions of courtroom sidebars (inaudible to gallery members and not picked up by the AV team’s microphones); discovery documents, evidence technicians’ reports, and 9-1-1 records (now publicly available); and my recent conversations with Jordan’s parents, Ron Davis and Lucy McBath. …”
