The performance of Simultaneous Clustering and Model Selection Matrix Affinity (SCAMSMA) and Deep Divergence-Based Clustering (DDC) in clustering wireless mul- tipaths generated by COST 2100 channel model (C2CM) is compared. Enhancing the accuracy of clustering multipaths is an open area of research which the clustering ap- proaches try to improve. Jaccard index is used as…

Sign language is a form of communication language designed to link a deaf-mute person to the world. To express an idea it requires the use of hand gestures and body movement. However, the bulk of the general population remain uneducated to understand the sign language. Therefore, a translator is required to facilitate the communication. This…

One of the open domain challenges for Spoken Dialogue System (SDS) is to maintain a natural conversation for rarely visited domain i.e. domain with fewer data. Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) is a component of SDS that converts user utterance into a semantic form that a computer can understand. If we scale SDS open domain challenge…

The article describes a way to increase the efficiency of an abrasive tool by its impregnation in an aqueous solution of chromium diiodide. The device scheme for impregnating the instrument is proposed. Research results of durability of tools impregnated with chromium diiodide and structural condition of material of a surface layer of details after processing…

Text classification is considered one of the most fundamental and essential problems that deal with automatically classifying textual resources into pre-defined categories. Numerous algorithms, datasets, and evaluation measurements have been proposed to address the task. Within the era of information redundancy, it is challenging and time-consuming to engineering a sizable amount of data in multi-languages…

Digital twins act through application programming interfaces to their physical counterparts to monitor, model, and control them. Beyond these traditional functions of digital twins, they must also act to secure their physical counterparts. A multi-model scheme is presented to help digital twins towards the task of securing the physical system. Additionally, this work includes an…
