Site selection and vehicle routing for post-disaster rapid needs assessment
(Elsevier, 2017-05)
In the immediate aftermath of a disaster, relief agencies perform rapid needs assessment to investigate the effects of the disaster on the affected communities. Since assessments must be performed quickly, visiting all of ...
Measurement of the inclusive energy spectrum in the very forward direction in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(Springer International Publishing, 2017-08-11)
The differential cross section for inclusive particle production as a function of energy in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is measured in the very forward region of the CMS detector. The ...
Postprocessing synthetic speech with a complex cepstrum vocoder for spoofing phase-based synthetic speech detectors
(IEEE, 2017-06)
State-of-the-art speaker verification systems are vulnerable to spoofing attacks. To address the issue, high-performance synthetic speech detectors (SSDs) for existing spoofing methods have been proposed. Phase-based SSDs ...
Availability analysis of software architecture decomposition alternatives for local recovery
(2017)
We present an efficient and easy-to-use methodology to predict—at design time—the availability of systems that support local recovery. Our analysis techniques work at the architectural level, where the software designer ...
Charged-particle nuclear modification factors in PbPb and pPb collisions at root s(NN)=5.02 TeV
(Springer International Publishing, 2017)
The spectra of charged particles produced within the pseudorapidity window |η| < 1 at sNN−−−−√=5.02sNN=5.02 TeV are measured using 404 μb−1 of PbPb and 27.4 pb−1 of pp data collected by the CMS detector at the LHC in ...
Observation of gamma(1S) pair production in proton-proton collisions at root s=8 TeV
(Springer International Publishing , 2017)
Pair production of gamma(1S) mesons is observed at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at root s = 8 TeV by the CMS experiment in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.7 fb(-1). Both gamma(1S) ...
Disposable cartridge biosensor platform for portable diagnostics
(SPIE , 2017)
We developed two types of cantilever-based biosensors for portable diagnostics applications. One sensor is based on MEMS cantilever chip mounted in a microfluidic channel and the other sensor is based on a movable optical ...
How to trust a few among many
(Springer International Publishing, 2017)
The presence of numerous and disparate information sources available to support decision-making calls for efficient methods of harnessing their potential. Information sources may be unreliable, and misleading reports can ...
Evaluation of sources for the sustainability of energy supply in Turkey
(Wiley, 2017)
Energy is one of the main factors that must be considered in the discussions of sustainable development. Renewable, clean and cost effective energy sources are preferred but unfortunately no one of the alternative energy ...
A model to estimate cost-savings in diabetic foot ulcer prevention efforts
(Elsevier, 2017)
Background: Sustained efforts at preventing diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) and subsequent leg amputations are sporadic in most health care systems despite the high costs associated with such complications. We sought to estimate ...
