Dual-Channel Deepfake Audio Detection: Leveraging Direct and Reverberant Waveforms by Gunwoo Lee, Jungmin Lee, Minkyo Jung, Joseph Lee, Kihun Hong, Souhwan Jung, Yoseob Han

“…To address this, we propose a novel dual-channel deepfake audio detection model that leverages the direct and reverberant components extracted from raw audio signals, focusing exclusively on audio-based detection without reliance on video content. Across various datasets, including ASVspoof2019, FakeAVCeleb, and sport press conference datasets collected by our group, the proposed dual-channel model demonstrates significant improvements in quantitative metrics such as equal error rate and area under the curve. …”

A Bio-Inspired Visual Neural Model for Robustly and Steadily Detecting Motion Directions of Translating Objects Against Variable Contrast in the Figure-Ground and Noise Interferenc... by Sheng Zhang, Ke Li, Zhonghua Luo, Mengxi Xu, Shengnan Zheng

“…Specifically, the average detection success rate of the proposed bio-inspired model under the pure and real-world complex noise datasets was increased by 5.38% and 5.30%. Thirdly, this model can effectively reduce the fluctuation in this model response against variable contrast in the figure-ground and environmental noise interference, which shows the stability of this model; specifically, the average inter-quartile range of the coefficient of variation in the proposed bio-inspired model under the pure and real-world complex noise datasets was reduced by 38.77% and 47.84%, respectively. …”

Rapid Switch from Intra-Aortic Balloon Pumping to Percutaneous Cardiopulmonary Support Using Perclose ProGlide by Kenichi Sakakura, Yusuke Adachi, Yousuke Taniguchi, Hiroshi Wada, Shin-ichi Momomura, Hideo Fujita

“…It is difficult to switch from IABP to PCPS, because 0.035-inch guidewires cannot pass the IABP guidewire lumen (0.025-inch compatible), and the IABP sheath needs to be removed together with the IABP catheter. First, a 0.025-inch guidewire was inserted into the IABP wire lumen, and then the IABP catheter together with the 8 Fr IABP sheath was removed, leaving the 0.025-inch guidewire in place. …”
