A novel audio watermarking scheme using multiscale wavelet modulation

A novel audio watermarking scheme to embed robust and inaudible watermarks for the purpose of copyright protection is proposed. The key innovation is to add time-frequency redundancy into watermark signals by multiscale wavelet modulation. In order to maximize the watermarking strength within perceptual constraints, the signals synthesized from different scales are masked using a frequency auditory model, respectively, and then intergrated to form the final watermark signal. The detection structure is built using the redundancy in watermark signals, and the performance is further enhanced by modeling the statistical behaviors of wavelet coefficients as generalized Gaussian distribution. The use of original audio signal is not required in watermark detection. The experimental results show that our approach can achieve not only good transparency but also satisfying robustness to common audio manipulations.     

A layer potential analysis for transmission problems for Brinkman‐type systems in Lipschitz domains in

The aim of this paper is to establish a well‐posedness result for a boundary value problem of transmission‐type for the standard and generalized Brinkman systems in two Lipschitz domains in , the former being bounded, and the latter, its complement in . As a first step, we establish a well‐posedness result for a transmission problem for the standard Brinkman systems on complementary Lipschitz domains in by making use of the Potential theory developed for such a system. As a second step, we prove our desired result (in L²‐based Sobolev spaces) by using a method based on Fredholm operator theory and the well‐posedness result from the previous step.     

Spin polarisation in dual catalysts for the oxygen evolution and reduction reactions

Strongly correlated catalysts can be understood from precise quantum approximations. Incorporating properly electronic correlations thus let’s define Spin rules in catalysis, opening a new door towards optimum compositions for the most important reactions for a sustainable future.     

Influence of metal ion on chelate–aryl stacking interactions

CCSD(T)/CBS and DFT methods are employed to study the stacking interactions of acetylacetonate‐type (acac‐type) chelates of nickel, palladium, and platinum with benzene. The strongest chelate–aryl stacking interactions are formed by nickel and palladium chelate, with interaction energies of −5.75 kcal mol⁻¹ and −5.73 kcal mol⁻¹, while the interaction of platinum chelate is weaker, with interaction energy of −5.36 kcal mol⁻¹. These interaction energies are significantly stronger than stacking of two benzenes, −2.73 kcal mol⁻¹. The strongest nickel and palladium chelate–aryl interactions are with benzene center above the metal area, while the strongest platinum chelate–aryl interaction is with the benzene center above the C2 atom of the acac‐type chelate ring. These preferences arise from very different electrostatic potentials above the metal ions, ranging from very positive above nickel to slightly negative above platinum. While the differences in electrostatic potentials above metal atoms cause different geometries with the most stable interaction among the three metals, the dispersion (correlation energy) component is the largest contribution to the total interaction energy for all three metals.     

Factors affecting the strengths of σ-hole electrostatic potentials

A σ-hole is a region of diminished electronic density on the extension of a covalent bond to an atom. This region often exhibits a positive electrostatic potential, which allows attractive noncovalent interactions with negative sites. In this study, we have systematically examined the dependence of σ-hole potentials upon (a) the atom having the σ-hole, and (b) the remainder of the molecule. We demonstrate that not only relative electron-attracting powers need to be considered, but also relative charge capacities (or polarizabilities), and that other factors can also have significant roles.
