Listeners with normal hearing show considerable individual differences in speech understanding when competing speakers are present, as in a crowded restaurant. Here, we show that one source of this variance are individual differences in the ability to focus selective attention on a target stimulus in the presence of distractors. In 50 young normal-hearing listeners, the performance in tasks mea...

The correct choice of a material in the process of structural design is the most important task. This study deals with determining and analyzing the mechanical properties of the material, and the material resistance to short-time creep and fatigue. The material under consideration in this investigation is austenitic stainless steel X6CrNiTi18-10. The results presenting ultimate tensile strength...

The segregation of brain fiber tractography data into distinct and anatomically meaningful clusters can help to comprehend the complex brain structure and early investigation and management of various neural disorders. We propose a novel stacked bidirectional long short-term memory(LSTM) based segmentation network, (BrainSegNet) for human brain fiber tractography data classification. We perform...

In this study we investigated whether we could distinguish the use of specific verbal and visual short term memory (STM) processes in children, or whether the differences in memory performance could be interpreted only in terms of quantitative differences. First, the number of processes involved in the responses on six STM tasks (serial order reconstruction) of 210 primary school children aged ...

In this paper, we propose a Two-Stream Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (TS-BLSTM) for the task of mitosis event detection and stage localization in time-lapse phase contrast microscopy image sequences. Our method consists of two steps. First, we extract candidate mitosis image sequences. Then, we solve the problem of mitosis event detection and stage localization jointly by the proposed TS...

Abstract Bamboo scrimber is a new natural fiber-reinforced composite material in modern industry. In this paper, the tensile creep characteristics of were chosen as object study. First, axial fracture experiments conducted on different test specimens to determine corresponding strength data. Then six sets standard under given stress levels. Finally, Maxwell constitutive model was applied fittin...
