The notion of semifunctor between categories, due to S. Hayashi (1985), is defined as a functor that does not necessarily preserve identities. In this paper we study how several properties of functors, such as fullness, full faithfulness, separability, natural fullness, can be formulated for semifunctors. Since a full semifunctor is actually a func...
Supervised models for speech enhancement are trained using artificially generated mixtures of clean speech and noise signals. However, the synthetic training conditions may not accurately reflect real-world conditions encountered during testing. This discrepancy can result in poor performance when the test domain significantly differs from the synt...
This article addresses the underutilization of knowledge organization systems (KOS) elements in online library catalogs, hindering effective subject-based search and discovery. It highlights the International Society for Knowledge Organization's initiative to develop metadata guidelines for library catalog procurement, focusing on maximizing the ...

Introduction: Low cardiac output and hypovolemia are candidate macrocirculatory mechanisms explanatory of de novo anuria in intensive care unit (ICU) patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). We aimed to determine the hemodynamic parameters and CRRT settings associated with the longitudinal course of UO during CRRT. Methods: ...

The impact of a sedentary lifestyle on health and well-being is well recognized. However, there is limited understanding of how a lifetime of physical activity and sedentary behaviour influences an active lifestyle in older adults. The aim of this study was to describe how lived experience of physical activity and sedentary behaviour impacts daily ...
This chapter proposes a generic modeling method for soft robots. This method is based on the notion of mechanical compliance, which provides a compact description of the behavior of a deformable robot. In particular, the kinematics of a soft manipulator arm can be derived from this notion. The chapter then shows how this compliance can be calculate...

Knee OsteoArthritis (KOA) is a widespread musculoskeletal disorder that can severely impact the mobility of older individuals. Insufficient medical data presents a significant obstacle for effectively training models due to the high cost associated with data labeling. Currently, deep learning-based models extensively utilize data augmentation techn...
Stem cell-derived organoid cultures have emerged as attractive experimental models for infection biology research regarding various types of gastro-intestinal pathogens and host species. However, the large size of infectious nematode larvae and the closed structure of 3-dimensional organoids often hinder studies of the natural route of infection. T...
In the past few years, Differentiable Neural Architecture Search (DNAS) rapidly imposed itself as the trending approach to automate the discovery of deep neural network architectures. This rise is mainly due to the popularity of DARTS, one of the first major DNAS methods. In contrast with previous works based on Reinforcement Learning or Evolutiona...
