Neotenic phenomenon in gene expression in the skin of Foxn1- deficient (nude) mice - a projection for regenerative skin wound healing
PublicationMouse fetuses up to 16 day of embryonic development and nude (Foxn1- deficient) mice are examples of animals that undergo regenerative (scar-free) skin healing. The expression of transcription factor Foxn1 in the epidermis of mouse fetuses begins at embryonic day 16.5 which coincides with the transition point from scar-free to scar-forming skin wound healing. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that Foxn1 expression...

Comparison of effectiveness of musical sound separation algorithms employing neural networks.
PublicationNiniejszy referat przedstawia kilka algorytmów służących do separacji dźwięków instrumentów muzycznych. Zaproponowane podejście do dekompozycji miksów dźwiękowych opiera się na założeniu, że wysokość dźwięków w miksie jest znana, tzn. wejściem dla algorytmów jest przebieg zmian wysokości dźwięków składowych miksu. Proces estymacji fazy i amplitudy składowych harmonicznych wykorzystuje dopasowywanie zespolonych przebiegów harmonicznych...

Estimation of musical sound separation algorithm effectiveness employing neural networks.
PublicationŚlepa separacja dźwięków sygnałów muzycznych zawartych w zmiksowanym materiale jest trudnym zadaniem. Jest to spowodowane tym, że dźwięki znajdujące się w relacjach harmonicznych mogą zawierać kolidujące składowe sinusoidalne (składowe harmoniczne). Ewaluacja wyników separacji jest również problematyczna, gdyż analiza błędu energetycznego często nie odzwierciedla subiektywnej jakości odseparowanych sygnałów. W tej publikacji zostały...

Low-dimensional bound entanglement with one-way distillable cryptographic key
PublicationIn this paper, we provide a class of bound entangled states that have positive distillable secure key rate. The smallest state of this kind is 4 circle times 4, which shows that peculiar security contained in bound entangled states does not need high-dimensional systems. We show that for these states a positive key rate can be obtained by one-way Devetak-Winter (DW) protocol. Subsequently, the volume of bound entangled key-distillable...
