Automatic speaker verification systems are increasingly used as the primary means to authenticate costumers. Recently, it has been proposed to train speaker verification systems using end-to-end deep neural models. In this paper, we show that such systems are vulnerable to adversarial example attacks. Adversarial examples are generated by adding a peculiar noise to original speaker examples, in...

The Multi-Compartment Vehicle Routing Problem (MC-VRP) consists of designing transportation routes to satisfy the demands of a set of costumers for several products that because of incompatibility constraints must be loaded on independent vehicle compartments. Despite its wide practical applicability the MC-VRP has not received much attention in the literature, and the few existing methods assu...

The purpose of this paper is to provide a method to identify customer (sustainability) demands, map these via price equivalents and use the equivalents for green logistics target costing. We use the methodology of Expert Survey and Choice Based Conjoint Analysis to study purchase decisions and determine customers’ price readiness for sustainable logistics services. The results are inter alia th...

We consider a pool type electricity market in which generators bid prices in a sealed bid form and are dispatched by an independent system operator (ISO). In our model, demand is inelastic and the ISO allocates production to minimize the system costs while considering the transmission constraints. In a departure from received literature, the model incorporates explicit description of the networ...

Similarity concept, finding the resemblance or classifying some groups of objects and study their common properties has been the interest of many researchers. Basically, in the studies the similarity between two objects or phenomena, 2-similarity in our words, has been discussed. In this paper, we consider the case when the resemblance or similarity among three objects or phenomena of a set, 3-...

introduction: raman spectroscopy, that is a spectroscopic technique based on inelastic scattering of monochromatic light, can provide valuable information about molecular vibrations, so using this technique we can study molecular changes in a sample. material and methods: in this research, 153 raman spectra obtained from normal and dried skin samples. baseline and electrical noise were eliminat...

conclusions various modalities of treatment used differentially in different types of drfs based on the barzullah working classification give good results in spite of conflicting literature. results the mean age of the patients was 51.22 ± 20.58 years. most of the patients were females (n=189, 64.19%). the minimal follow up was 6 months with a mean of 15.10 ± 5.4 months. mean mayo wrist scores ...
