  An annual profile of the impacts of simulated oil spills on the Northeast Arctic cod and haddock fisherie 

  Carroll, JoLynn; Frøysa, Håvard Guldbrandsen; Vikebø, Frode Bendiksen; Broch, Ole Jacob; Nepstad, Raymond; Augustine, Starrlight; Skeie, Geir Morten; Bockwoldt, Mathias; Howell, Daniel (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-10)

  We simulate the combined natural and pollutant-induced survival of early life stages of NEA cod and haddock, and the impact on the adult populations in response to the time of a major oil spill in a single year. Our simulations reveal how dynamic ocean processes, controlling both oil transport and fate and the frequency of interactions of oil with drifting fish eggs and larvae, mediate the magnitude ...

  Using automated syllable counting to detect missing information in speech transcripts from clinical settings 

  Diaz-Asper, Marama; Holmlund, Terje Bektesevic; Chandler, Chelsea; Diaz-Asper, Catherine; Foltz, Peter W.; Cohen, Alex S.; Elvevåg, Brita (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-05)

  Speech rate and quantity reflect clinical state; thus automated transcription holds potential clinical applications. We describe two datasets where recording quality and speaker characteristics affected transcription accuracy. Transcripts of low-quality recordings omitted significant portions of speech. An automated syllable counter estimated actual speech output and quantified the amount of ...

  A self-guided anomaly detection-inspired few-shot segmentation network 

  Jenssen, Robert; Hansen, Stine; Gautam, Srishti; Kampffmeyer, Michael (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)

  Standard strategies for fully supervised semantic segmentation of medical images require large pixel-level annotated datasets. This makes such methods challenging due to the manual labor required and limits the usability when segmentation is needed for new classes for which data is scarce. Few-shot segmentation (FSS) is a recent and promising direction within the deep learning literature designed ...

  Multi-Year Sea Ice Conditions in the Northwest Passage: 1968–2020 

  Howell, Stephen; Babb, David G; Landy, Jack Christopher; Brady, Michael (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-21)

  The Northwest Passage is often referred to as the “Holy Grail” of ship navigation as it provides a shorter route connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans compared to the Northern Sea Route, Panama Canal, Suez Canal, and transiting around Cape Horn. Here, we summarize 52 years of observed multi-year ice (MYI) conditions from 1968 to 2020 in the western Canadian Arctic regions of the Northwest ...
