Using Voice Activity Detection and Deep Neural Networks with Hybrid Speech Feature Extraction for Deceptive Speech Detection.

In this work, we first propose a deep neural network (DNN) system for the automatic detection of speech in audio signals, otherwise known as voice activity detection (VAD). Several DNN types were investigated, including multilayer perceptrons (MLPs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and convolutional neural networks (CNNs), with the best performance being obtained for the latter. Additional postprocessing techniques, i.

[Therapeutic approach in kidney trauma. Assessments of 49 patients treated at surgical emergencies clinics].

Unlabelled: The aim of this study is to contribute to efficiency of therapeutical interventions, using an optimal stadialisation followed by a maximum preservation of renal function.

Material And Methods: A number of 49 cases with polytrauma, included urinary lesions, were studied between January, 2002 and December, 2009. Demographical, clinical, paraclinical data were collected, as well as those regarding therapeutical measures.

[Laparoscopic cholecystectomy in pacients with child's class A cirrhosis of the liver and acute cholecystitis due to cholelithiasis].

Unlabelled: Cholecystectomy in cirrhotic patients has been reserved for patients with severe biliary disease, because of the high morbidity and mortality in cirrhotic patients undergoing this procedure. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) was originally contraindicated in cirrhotic patients because of the associated portal hypertension and coagulopathy.

Material And Method: This study examined the safety of LC in Child's class A patients and acute cholecystitis due to cholelithiasis in patients from "Sf.

[Clinical aspects of the post-caustic esophageal stenosis on 116 cases].

116 cases of post-caustic esophageal stenosis hospitalized in the Emergency Surgical Clinic of Iaşi during the period 1982-2004 have been analyzed. The patients' ages, the 4th decade of age (24.13%) prevailed.

[Clinical aspects of cardiac stab wounds: report of 20 cases].

Penetrating cardiac wounds are the most dramatic injuries which need a rapid diagnosis and surgical intervention. This clinical pathology has a high increasing incidence in the whole world. We aimed to present our personal experience in such cases.
