The essence of video semantic segmentation (VSS) is how to leverage temporal information for prediction. Previous efforts are mainly devoted developing new techniques calculate the cross-frame affinities such as optical flow and attention. Instead, this paper contributes from a different angle by mining relations among affinities, upon which better aggregation could be achieved. We explore in t...

New odour prevention strategies in wastewater treatment facilities need to be investigated find effective and low-cost technologies for the control of malodorous emissions. In this study, potential activated sludge (AS) oxidized nitrogen (N-NOx) recycling as an environmentally-friendly cost-effective strategy minimization nuisance during was evaluated optimized using H2S, acetic acid α-pinene m...

This report is a cross-sectional study aiming to establish the status of age inter-group and individual variability for Working Memory (WM) three WM components: Phonological loop (PL), Visuo-spatial Sketchpad (VSS) Central executive (CE). The direct scores CE, PL VSS were obtained in sample 258 subjects between 6 26 years. results indicate an increase with that was modeled by inverse function. ...

A publicly verifiable secret sharing (PVSS) scheme is a verifiable secret sharing (VSS) scheme in which anyone, not only the shareholders, can verify that the secret shares are correctly distributed. PVSS plays an essential role in the systems that use VSS. In this paper we present a new construction for PVSS scheme based on Paillier encryption scheme.We formalize the notion of indistinguishabi...

Introduction The field of veterinary syndromic surveillance (VSS) is developing fast, with countries exploring a great variety of data sources [1]. After implementing two VSS systems we have demonstrated that the steps from classified data to full system implementation can be streamlined, and published a guideline for implementation [2]. All the steps described have been made available in an R ...

We show that the statement “every universally Baire set of reals has perfect property” is equiconsistent modulo ZFC with existence a cardinal we call virtually Shelah for supercompactness (VSS). These cardinals resemble and Shelah-for-supercompactness but are much weaker: if exists then every Silver indiscernible VSS in L. also , where pointclass all sets reals, -reflecting cardinal.

Visual Cryptography is a new Cryptography technique which is used to secure the images. In Visual Cryptography the Image is divided into parts called shares and then they are distributed to the participants. The Decryption side just stacking the share images gets the image. The initial model developed only for the bi-level or binary images or monochrome images. Later it was advanced to suit for...

Blind equalization is a technique for adaptive equalization of a communication channel without the use of training sequence. Although the constant modulus algorithm (CMA) is one of the most popular adaptive blind equalization algorithms, because of using fixed step size it suffers from slow convergence rate. A novel enhanced variable step size CMA algorithm (VSS-CMA) based on autocorrelation of...

Simultaneous anaerobic and aerobic degradation pathways in two-chamber, tubular microbial fuel cells (MFCs) facilitated pentachlorophenol (PCP) mineralization by a mediator-less biocathode. PCP was degraded at a rate of 0.263 ± 0.05 mg/L-h (51.5 mg/g VSS-h) along with power generation of 2.5 ± 0.03 W/m(3). Operating the biocathode MFC at 50°C improved the PCP degradation rate to 0.523 ± 0.08 mg...
