Strategies for high accuracy keyword detection in noisy channels
We present design strategies for a keyword spotting (KWS) system that operates in highly degraded channel conditions with very low signal-to-noise ratio levels.

A Noise-Robust System for NIST 2012 Speaker Recognition Evaluation
This paper presents SRI’s submission along with a careful analysis of the approaches that provided gains for this challenging evaluation including a multiclass voice-activity detection system, the use of noisy data in system training, and the fusion of subsystems using acoustic characterization metadata.

In Situ Spectrophotometric Measurement of Dissolved Inorganic Carbon in Seawater
SEAS-DIC is a new in situ instrument designed to provide calibrated, high-frequency, long-term measurements of DIC in marine and fresh waters. This instrument, the first spectrophotometric system capable of automated in situ DIC measurements, positions DIC to become a key parameter for in situ CO2-system characterizations.

Large-Scale Access Scheduling in Wireless Mesh Networks Using Social Centrality
We propose a set of efficient resource allocation algorithms and channel access scheduling protocols based on Latin squares and social centrality metrics for wireless mesh networks (WMNs) with multi-radio multi-channel (MRMC) communication capabilities, called LaSo.

Detecting Neurodegenerative Diseases Before Damage Is Done
The brain has amazing capacity to overcome large deficits, which means that by the time a neurodegenerative disease becomes apparent, the damage is extensive. In the case of Parkinson’s disease, for example, more than half of the midbrain region called the substantia nigra can be completely destroyed without any evidence of a problem. But once…
