SegmentPerturb: effective black-box hidden voice attack on commercial ASR systems via selective deletion
(2021-08-01)
Voice control systems continue becoming more pervasive as they are deployed in mobile phones, smart home devices, automobiles, etc. Commonly, voice control systems have high privileges on the device, such as making a call ...
Assessing the influence of geological and land-use gradients on zooplankton and phytoplankton biodiversity in the land between ecotone
(2021-11-01)
The Land Between (TLB) is an ecotone in south-central Ontario that represents a transition from limestone-dominated bedrock to granite-dominated bedrock, creating notable calcium and land-use gradients across this unique ...
Characterizing blood plasma proteins from organ tissue in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) using a non-targeted proteomics approach
(2021-12-01)
Protein expression patterns adapt to various cues to meet the needs of an organism. The dynamicity of an organism’s proteome can therefore reveal information about an organism’s health. Proteome databases contain limited ...
Determining the differences in effect of chromate, chromite and chromium picolinate in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) at environmentally relevant concentrations
(2021-11-01)
The Ring of Fire is a region in the James Bay Lowlands of northern Ontario that houses a rich deposit of chromite and is slated for mining development. The goals of this study were to better understand the relative effects ...
Assessing the memorability of familiar vocabulary for system assigned passphrases
(2021-08-01)
Text-based secrets are still the most commonly used authentication mechanism in information systems. Initially introduced as more secure authentication keys that people could recall, passphrases are tokens consisting of ...
On deep learning in physics
(2021-04-01)
Machine learning, and most notably deep neural networks, have seen unprecedented success in recent years due to their ability to learn complex nonlinear mappings by ingesting large amounts of data through the process of ...
A mixed-method approach to analyze the robustness of natural language processing classifiers
(2021-04-01)
Natural language processing algorithms (NLP) have become an essential approach for processing large amounts of textual information with applications such as spam, phishing and content moderation. Malicious actors can craft ...
A modular interface framework for multimodal annotations and visualizations in Human-AI collaboration
(2021-07-01)
Modular is a web-based annotation, visualization, and inference software plat-form for computational language and vision research. The platform enables researchers to set up an interface for efficiently annotating language ...
Monolayer terpyridyl metal complexes for high-efficiency electrochromic materials
(2021-08-01)
Electrochromic materials (ECMs) can change their color with changes of applied electrochemical potential. Currently, the use of ECMs in the industry is limited to mainly inorganic metal oxides, conjugated conducting polymers, ...
The synthesis and in vivo evaluation of chemically modified siRNAs that contain red-shifted internal azobenzene derivative spacers for selective and tunable photocontrol of activity without UV light
(2021-08-01)
Short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are biopolymers that are used for post-transcriptional gene regulation and act as endogenous defenses against attack from viruses and dsRNA parasites. The siRNA field is making advances for ...
