Abstract:
File system analysis is an important process in the fields of data recovery and computer forensics. The file system is formed by metadata describing how files and directories are organized in a hard drive. File system corruption, either accidental or intentional, may compromise the ability to access and recover the contents of files. Existing techniques, such as file carving, allow for the recovery of file contents partially, without considering the file system structure. However, the loss of metadata may prevent the attribution of meaning to extracted contents, given by file names or timesta

Abstract:
When capturing speech signals using a distant microphone within a confined acoustic space, the recordings are often degraded by reverberation. This can have a detrimental impact on the quality and intelligibility of speech, especially when combined with acoustic noise. In recent years, there has been increasing demand for effective ways of combating the damaging effects of reverberation in applications such as hands-free telephony or hearing-aids technology. However, the task of providing a blind single-channel dereverberation method robust to high levels of noise and suitable for real-time pr

The decision threshold analysis illustrates which noise source dominates system performance.

Due to the systematic nature of German Idealist writing, it is impossible to compare the relevant doctrines of Kant and Fichte and passages in a vacuum. Each explanation belongs to a broader account of evil which itself fits into an even more expansive moral philosophy.
