A hierarchical framework is proposed to address the issues of modeling different type of words in keyword spotting (KWS). Keyword models are built at various levels according to the availability of training set resources for each individual word. The proposed approach improves the performance of KWS even when no training speech is available for the keywords. It also suggests an easier way to co...

scanning impedance microscopy (sim) is one of the novel scanning probe microscopy (spm) techniques, which has been developed to taking image from sample surface, providing quantitative information with high lateral resolution on the interface capacitance, and investigating the local capacitance–voltage (c–v) behavior of the interface and ac transport properties. the sim is an ordinary afm equip...

the effect of the substitution of imported raw materials (corn and soyabeans) by local food resources (barley, white sorghum, triticale and horse bean) on the parameters of faciesfermentation and digestibility in the rumen of sheep was evaluated. four sicilo-sarde rams 4.8±0.5 years of age with an average live weight of 45.25±3.5 kg, permanently canulated in the rumen and housed in individual c...

background: local ethical committees in medical sciences in iran were established in 1999 in order to assess and evaluate the observance of ethical standards throughout the universities and research centers. the purpose of this study is to analyze the situation of local ethical committees in order to develop research ethics guideline. methods: for this cross-sectional study which has been condu...

The purpose of Grid computing is to utilize computational power of idle resources which are distributed in different areas. Given the grid dynamism and its decentralize resources, there is a need for an efficient scheduler for scheduling applications. Since task scheduling includes in the NP-hard problems various researches have focused on invented algorithms especially the genetic ones. But si...
