Abstract Face anti‐spoofing is critical to prevent face recognition systems from a security breach.The biometrics community has achieved impressive progress recently due to the excellent performance of deep neural networks and the availability of large datasets.Although ethnic bias has been verified to severely affect the performance of face reco
BACKGROUND: Individual differences in human cognitive abilities show consistently positive correlations across diverse domains, providing the basis for the trait of "general intelligence" (g).At present, little Sarsaparilla is known about the evolution of g, in part because most comparative studies focus on rodents or on differences across higher-l
IntroductionSleep enhances the antibody response to vaccination, but the relationship between sleep and mRNA vaccination against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is not fully understood.MethodsIn this prospective observational study, we investigated the influence of sleep habits on immune acquisition induced by mRNA vacc
This work examines the sources of moisture affecting the semi-arid Brazilian Northeast (NEB) during its pre-rainy and rainy season (JFMAM) through a Lagrangian diagnosis method.The FLEXPART model identifies the humidity contributions to the moisture budget over a region through the continuous computation of changes in the specific humidity along ba
