Domain adaptation and compensation for emotion detection
Inspired by the recent improvements in domain adaptation and session variability compensation techniques used for speech and speaker processing, we study their effect for emotion prediction.

Evaluation of Evidence-Based Practices in Online Learning: A Meta-Analysis and Review of Online Learning Studies
The meta-analysis found that, on average, students in online learning conditions performed modestly better than those receiving face-to-face instruction. Analysts noted that these blended conditions often included additional learning time…

Contributions of Studies on Alcohol Use Disorders to Understanding Cerebellar Function
This overview proposes that disruption of an executive frontocerebellar network is a major contributor to characteristic behaviors of alcoholism that, on the one hand, enable alcohol use disorders, and on…

Repurposing FDA-Approved Drugs to Combat Drug-Resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii
We wanted to identify new scaffolds for drug discovery by repurposing FDA-approved drugs against Acinetobacter baumannii, an emerging Gram-negative nosocomial drug-resistant pathogen.
