We look forward to seeing many of you at 97th Annual Conference (VTC2023-Spring) held on 20–23 June 2023 Florence, Italy. owe thanks J.R. Cruz as VTS vice president for conferences; Alberto Reatti and Lorenzo Ciani general cochairs; Gabriele Maria Lozito, Fabio Corti, Rui Dinis, Alicia Trivino, Luca Pugi, Salvatore Musume...

249 enteropathogenic escherichia coli (epec) strains from faecal samples of 90 children with diarrhoea were examined for verotoxin (vt) production. polymyxin b extracts of 61 strains belonging to 9 serogroups from 35 children produced various verotoxins (vts). the titre of these various vts ranged from i :40 to i: 12ho. of the 26 (43.6%) adherent strains, 19 (73%) exhibited localized adherence ...

Introduction The great arteries are an important source of arrhythmias, including premature ventricular contractions, ventricular tachycardia (VT), atrial tachycardia, and accessory pathways. The source of ventricular arrhythmias is thought to be muscular fibers extending from the outflow tracts to a variable extent above the valves. Ventricular arrhythmias from the aortic cusps exhibit complex...

The position in this paper is that Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) are very relevant for children’s education Sweden, and their practice makes them highly adaptable to English language teaching. rationale elicitation communication technique has proven effective nurturing the abilities skills which identified Swedish curriculum compulsory schooling. impact of VTS system could be significant. Fi...

Successfully modeling overlapping speech is a crucial step towards improving the performance of current speaker diarization systems. In this direction, we present ongoing work on a novel Multi-Class Vector Taylor Series (MC-VTS) approach that models overlapping speech from knowledge of the individual speaker models and the feature extraction process. We explore several variants of the MC-VTS te...

Thanks to ICT, new organizational forms are emerging that keep the pace of an increasingly demanding competitive environment. Among them, Virtual Enterprises (VEs) and Virtual Teams (VTs) represent two challenging organizational forms from the point of view of effective management. An open issue in VEs/VTs is the social and economical sustainability of knowledge sharing in virtual environments,...

We propose a new approach for multichannel robust speech recognition. This approach extends the vector Taylor series (VTS)-based feature compensation from the single channel to the multichannel case. Precisely, we use the first order VTS to approximate each of the microphone feature vectors. Afterwards, these features are jointly processed to estimate the acoustic channel and noise statistics v...
