Suspended and deposited sediments in streams can interfere with filter-feeding caddisfly larvae by reducing feeding sites and feeding efficiency, potentially lowering the densities, growth rates, and secondary production of an important trout prey. We co...

Denoising computed tomography (CT) medical images is crucial in preserving information and restoring images contaminated with noise. Standard filters have extensively been used for noise removal and fine details? preservation. During the transmission of ...

The mechanical and hydraulic properties of soils are largely governed by their soil-water characteristics, which are influenced by factors such as pore size distribution (PSD). While biochar is commonly used as an additive to alter soil properties, its e...

Higher levels of arsenic (As) and iron (Fe) in groundwater have been reported globally. This study aims to enhance our understanding of the role of naturally occurring dissolved Fe(II) in removing As from groundwater. Field experiments were conducted usi...

Since the variable-speed seawater pump and the three-way valve of a ship?s central cooling system are forms of feedback from the same output signal, these controllers may cause interference when they are not coordinated. Therefore, studying an efficient ...

The issue of underwater image restoration was investigated in this paper. Specifically, the color constancy of a single image was used to estimate the transmission map (TM), which can be used in the image formation model to restore the underwater image. ...

Moderate performance in terms of intelligibility and naturalness can be obtained using previously established silent speech interface (SSI) methods. Nevertheless, a common problem associated with SSI has involved deficiencies in estimating the spectrum d...

In this study, a simple yet effective framework is proposed to characterize fine-grained in-app user activities performed on mobile applications using a convolutional neural network (CNN). The proposed framework uses a time window-based approach to split...
