The missing piece

Searching for the Missing Piece

Tree-trellis forward-backward algorithm has been widely used for N-best search in continuous speech recognition. In conventional approaches, the heuristic score used for the A* backward search is derived from the partial-path scores recorded during the forward pass. The inherently delayed use of language model in the lexical tree structure leads to inefficient pruning and the partial-path score...

Graphene: The Missing Piece for Cancer Diagnosis?

This paper reviews recent advances in graphene-based biosensors development in order to obtain smaller and more portable devices with better performance for earlier cancer detection. In fact, the potential of Graphene for sensitive detection and chemical/biological free-label applications results from its exceptional physicochemical properties such as high electrical and thermal conductivity, a...

The Missing Piece of Survivorship: Cancer Prevention.

The patient, R.C., finished her chemotherapy for breast cancer on June 4, 2007. At 58, she was ready for a better year, putting cancer treatment behind her and beginning her new life after cancer. In 2014, I was surprised to see R.C. on the schedule for chemotherapy education for 
FOLFOX (leucovorin calcium, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin). Colorectal cancer had been discovered during a routine ...

Watcher: The Missing Piece of the Security Puzzle

Modern intrusion detection systems are comprised of three basically different approaches, host based, network based, and a third relatively recent addition called procedural based detection. The first two have been extremely popular in the commercial market for a number of years now because they are relatively simple to use, understand and maintain. However, they fall prey to a number of shortc...
