Passwords play a critical role in online authentication. Unfortunately, passwords suffer from two seemingly intractable problems: password cracking and password theft. In this paper, we propose PasswordAgent, a new password hashing mechanism that utilizes both a salt repository and a browser plug-in to secure web logins with strong passwords. Password hashing is a technique that allows users to...

Object detection aims to localize and classify the objects in a given image, these two tasks are sensitive different object regions. Therefore, some locations predict high-quality bounding boxes but low classification scores, quite opposite. A misalignment exists between tasks, their features spatially entangled. In order solve problem, we propose plug-in Spatial-disentangled Task-aligned opera...

Extracellular fibers called chaperone-usher pathway pili are critical virulence factors in a wide range of Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria that facilitate binding and invasion into host tissues and mediate biofilm formation. Chaperone-usher pathway ushers, which catalyze pilus assembly, contain five functional domains: a 24-stranded transmembrane β-barrel translocation domain (TD), a β-sandwi...

introduction: the ideal endodontic treatment for the teeth with in complete root-ends and necrotic pulps may involve the use of material which forms an immediate apical barrier instead of long term calcium hydroxide therapy. such procedure may lead us to a single appointment endodontic treatment. the purpose of the present study was to evaluate clinical and radiographic success rate in necrotic...

Sputum analysis is increasingly used to assess airway inflammation in asthma. The analysis of sputum is currently performed with two techniques, i.e., analysis of selected sputum (plugs) and analysis of entire sputum. To investigate the diagnostic value of these two methods, we compared total and differential cell counts and supernatant eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) in selected and entire s...

The paper presents a novel on-line transient moving chemical reaction boundary method (tMCRBM) for simply but efficiently stacking ionizable analytes in high-salt matrix in capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). The powerful function and stability of the tMCRBM are elucidated with the ionizable test analytes of L-phenylalanine (Phe) and L-tryptophan (Trp) in the matrix with 85.6-165.6 mM sodium ...
