Enhancing practicality and efficiency of deepfake detection.

The proliferation of deepfake generation has become increasingly widespread. Current solutions for automatically detecting and classifying generated content require substantial computational resources, making them impractical for use by the average non-expert individual, particularly from edge computing applications. In this paper, we propose a series of techniques to accelerate the inference speed of deepfake detection on video data.

Are Redox-Active Centers Bridged by Saturated Flexible Linkers Systematically Electrochemically Independent?

The extent to which electrophores covalently bridged by a saturated linker are electrochemically independent was investigated considering the charge/spin duality of the electron and functionality of the electrophore as a spin carrier upon reduction. By combining computational modeling with electrochemical experiments, we investigated the mechanism by which tethered electrophores react together within 4,4'-oligo[n]methylene-bipyridinium assemblies (with n=2 to 5). We show that native dicationic electrophores (redox state Z=+2) are folded prior to electron injection into the system, allowing the emergence of supra-molecular orbitals (supra-MOs) likely to support the process of the reductive σ bond formation giving cyclomers.

Sex-specificity in Surgical Stages of Lung Cancer in Young Adults.

Background: Young Patients with lung cancer represent a distinct subset of patients with this neoplasm. Young International studies show increased lung cancer rates in females, while the incidence in males continues to decline. There is evidence to suggest that this trend recurs in younger patients.

High efficiency photocatalytic degradation of Ambroxol over Mn doped TiO: Experimental designs, identification of transformation products, mineralization and mechanism.

Ambroxol (AMB) is a drug commonly used for chronic bronchitis prevention. Once released in surface water, this recalcitrant chemical becomes a hazardous pollutant. Here, we investigated the ability of 1% Mn-doped TiO (Mn-TiO) to mineralize AMB by photocatalysis.

Occurrence and seasonal variation of aflatoxin M in raw cow milk collected from different regions of Algeria.

Background And Aim: Aflatoxins are metabolites of molds that exert potentially toxic effect on animals and humans. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of aflatoxin M (AFM) in raw cow milk collected during 1 year (2016-2017) from different regions of Algeria and risk factors associated with the contamination.

Materials And Methods: During the survey period, 84 samples of raw milk were collected in three regions of Algeria (northeast, north center, and northwest) during four seasons.
