JoVA-hinge: joint variational autoencoders for personalized recommendation with implicit feedback
(2020-12-01)
Recently, Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) have shown remarkable performance in collaborative filtering (CF) with implicit feedback. These existing recommendation models learn user representations to reconstruct or predict ...
Polymorphic Adversarial DDoS attack on IDS using GAN
(2020-12-01)
IDS are essential components in preventing malicious traffic from penetrating networks. IDS have been rapidly enhancing their detection ability using ML algorithms. As a result, attackers look for new methods to evade the ...
Comparative analysis of deep learning and graph cut algorithms for cell image segmentation
(2020-08-01)
Image segmentation is a commonly used technique in digital image processing with many applications in the area of computer vision and medical image analysis. The goal of image segmentation is to partition an image into ...
School resource officers: interrogation training, developmental knowledge, and questioning practices
(2020-09-01)
Given the prevalence of School Resource Officers (SROs) in American schools, it is surprising that relatively little is known empirically about SRO training, including with regard to their questioning of students suspected ...
Development and comparison of augmented and virtual reality interactions for direct ophthalmoscopy
(2020-10-01)
Direct ophthalmoscopy is a medical procedure whereby a health professional examines the back of the eye, searching for life-threatening risks. The direct ophthalmoscope is used for examining the patient and it requires ...
Effect of copper contamination at the cathode in Cu-Cl electrolyzers for hydrogen production
(2020-04-01)
In this work the effects of copper contamination on the coulombic and voltage efficiency of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) via the Cu-Cl thermochemical cycle are investigated. A novel proton pump configuration was ...
Water quality and biotic community response to an urban – rural land-use gradient in the Lake Simcoe watershed
(2020-06-01)
Most research in the Lake Simcoe watershed (LSW) has focused on how the lake has responded to changes in nutrients sourced by agriculture, particularly after mitigation measures have been put in place to remedy the lake’s ...
Characterization of the ACC-1 Family of cys-loop ligand gated ion channels from the parasitic nematode Haemonchus contortus.
(2020-12-01)
Nematode cys-loop ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) have been extensively studied for decades because of their role in current anthelmintic action and potential as targets for future drugs. Many families of cys loop receptors ...
Comparing exercise responses to high intensity interval training between adults with and without asthma
(2020-06-01)
Exercise induced bronchoconstriction (EIBC) occurs in response to high ventilations during exercise, which cools and dries the airways, triggering an inflammatory cascade. High intensity interval training (HIIT) is associated ...
Muscle fatigue and other factors influencing forearm muscle activity
(2020-08-01)
The wrist extensor muscles of the forearm exhibit relatively greater muscle activity than the wrist flexors during most hand/wrist tasks. Since the extensors operate at a greater percentage of maximum to balance wrist joint ...
