Terminei de imprimir todas as provas. Agora estou almoçando correndo e daqui a pouco sair daqui. Foi bom ter feito esses gabaritos e revisado, acabei trocando uma das questões.

Turkiye has revoked the operational licence ⁠for ⁠a top private university with liberal values,
effectively forcing it to close in the middle of the academic year,
after the institution was seized ⁠by the state in a criminal investigation last year.
In a presidential decree, published in the Official Gazette on Friday, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan revoked the operating licence for Istanbul Bilgi University,
which has an estimated 20,000 students from Turkiye and acr…

The Blight Reaches Microsoft: 73 Repos Disabled in 105 Seconds
GitHub disabled 73 Microsoft repositories across four of its GitHub organizations — the entire Azure Functions org, the whole Durable Task family, and a row of AI sample apps — in a 105-second sweep on June 5. The recompromised durabletask package sits at the center, and the fingerprints point at the open-sourced Miasma worm.

Abstract: Speech enhancement (SE) systems are typically evaluated using a variety of instrumental metrics. The use of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems to evaluate SE performance is common in literature, usually in terms of word error rate (WER). However, WER scores depend heavily on the choice of ASR system and text normalization pipeline. In this paper, we investigate how modern ASR models correlate with human recognition of enhanced speech. A listening experiment reveals that modern ASR models with large-scale noisy training and embedded language models correlate more with human WER than simpler ones, with a transducer model providing the most reliable transcriptions. Nevertheless, we also show that these models' robustness to noise and use of context can be uninformative to an acoustics-focused evaluation of enhancement performance.

The US Congress has passed a 45-day extension of a law that grants US intelligence agencies warrantless spying powers.
Bitter infighting over section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act in the Republican wing of Congress has repeatedly tanked conservative leaders’ plans to renew the controversial surveillance law for multiple years.
The deadlock continued on Thursday, as the Republican House speaker Mike Johnson refused to include key reforms pushed by hardliners in …
