Subword Dictionary Learning and Segmentation Techniques for Automatic Speech Recognition in Tamil and Kannada [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
We present automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems for Tamil and Kannada based on subword modeling to effectively handle unlimited vocabulary due to the highly agglutinative nature of the languages. We explore byte pair encoding (BPE), and proposed a variant of this algorithm named extended-BPE, and Morfessor tool to segment each word as subwords ...

Cystatin C as Biomarker for the Evaluation of Renal Outcome in AL Amyloidosis

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cystatin C (CysC) has emerged as a novel and potentially more reliable biomarker for the estimation of glomerular filtration in the general population in patients with various conditions. In AL amyloidosis, the current renal staging system and renal response criteria are based on proteinuria and creatinine‐based eGFR.
