On the Applicability of Speaker Diarization to Audio Indexing of Non-Speech and Mixed Non-Speech/Speech Video
This paper explores how unsupervised audio segmentation systems like speaker diarization can be adapted to automatically identify low-level sound concepts similar to annotator defined concepts and how these concepts can…

Enabling Hardware Exploration in Software-Defined Networking: A Flexible, Portable Openflow Switch
We present an FPGA-based switch which is fully-compliant with OpenFlow 1.0, and meets the 10 Gbps line rate.

Frequency-Selective Surface Coupled Metal-Oxide-Metal Diodes
In this work we investigate integrating MOM diodes with a slot antenna Frequency Selective Surface (FSS). This maximizes the electromagnetic capture area while minimizing the transmission line length which helps…

A New Activated Carbon for CO2 Capture from Coal-Fired Boiler Flue Gas
With the current environmental interest in controlling greenhouse gases, there is a new focus on materials that can discriminate between gas molecules by capturing those gases that must be curtailed…

Development of Functional Assays for p97/VCP Inhibition
We used p97 siRNA and a recently identified small molecule p97 inhibitor, N2,N4-dibenzylquinazoline- 2,4-diamine (DBeQ) as tools to develop functional assays suitable for further evaluating the activity of potential p97…
