We have developed a method to improve the transformation efficiency in genome-sequenced bacteria, using 'Plasmid Artificial Modification' (PAM), using the host's own restriction system. In this method, a shuttle vector was pre-methylated in Escherichia coli cells, which carry all the putative genes encoding the DNA modification enzymes of the target microorganism, before electroporation was per...

This paper investigates the effect of a transfer functionbased voice transformation on automatic speaker recognition system performance. We focus on increasing the impostor acceptance rate, by modifying the voice of an impostor in order to target a specific speaker. This paper follows previous works where we demonstrate that, if someone has a knowledge on the speaker recognition method used, it...

In this paper we propose a scheme for developing a voice conversion system that converts the speech signal uttered by a source speaker to a speech signal having the voice characteristics of the target speaker. In particular, we address the issue of transformation of the vocal tract system features from one speaker to another. Formants are used to represent the vocal tract system features and a ...

In this study, we have employed the maximum envelope of the carotid artery Doppler sonograms derived from Fast Fourier Transformation-Welch Method and artificial immune systems in order to distinguish between atherosclerosis and healthy subjects. In this classification problem, the used artificial immune system has reached to 99.33% classification accuracy using 10-fold Cross Validation (CV) me...

This paper describes the knowledge-based system techniques, such as program transformation and artificial intelligence techniques, used to design a reliable protocol. Program transformation techniques can be used in deriving protocol specifications. AI techniques, such as search algorithms and theorem proving, can be used to reduce the global space search. AI techniques can also be used to help...

Image encoding decoding concept is studied by using the techniques of wavelet transformation, artificial neural network(ANN)and threshold value. The aforesaid techniques are useful in encoding and decoding. This process gives more ensured, a three leveled security to the images in three different terms. First is wavelet transformation. Second is encoding decoding keys along with weights of ANN ...

In the past decade, current literature and businesses have drawn attention to Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in particular advances machine learning techniques. Nevertheless, while AI technology offers great potential solve difficulties, challenges remain implicated practical implementation lack of expertise strategic usage create business value. This paper aims implement a systematic revie...
