Echo Cancellation Using Deep Learning
Complete cancellation of returned acoustic echo signal is still an unresolved issue in signal processing. When a signal from a speaker in one end of a room returns and is fed into a microphone, a delayed and distorted version of the input signal is registered and transferred to the transmitting e...

Classification and Segmentation of Dendritic Cells
Dry eye disease (DED) is one of the most common ophthalmic disorders. Inflammation of the ocular surface is controlled by corneal antigen-presenting cells called dendritic cells (DCs), which induce T-cell activation, and play a critical role in the pathogenesis of dry eye disease. The density of ...
