Quantifying the Breakdown of the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation in Surface Chemistry
In this paper we show that molecular-beam surface scattering experiments can be used to derive quantitative information about the magnitude of BOA breakdown.

Recent progress in prosodic speaker verification
In this paper, we show that performance can be significantly improved with the use of probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) for session variability compensation.

Web-Based Metabolic Network Visualization with a Zooming User Interface
We present a Web-based metabolic-map diagram, which can be interactively explored by the user, called the Cellular Overview. The main characteristic of this application is the zooming user interface enabling the user to focus on appropriate granularities of the network at will.

Robust speech representation of voiced sounds based on synchrony determiniation with PLLS
We propose to include synchrony effects, known to exist in the auditory system, to represent voiced parts of the speech signal in a robust way.

Detection of Inflammatory Arthritis By Using Hyperpolarized 13 C-Pyruvate with Mr Imaging and Spectroscopy
The data presented herein suggest that the presence of inflammation may be detected at 13C-MR spectroscopy as the increased conversion of hyperpolarized 13C-pyruvate into 13C-lactate.
