A Novel Uncertainty Parameter SR (Signal To Residual Spectrum Ratio) Evaluation Approach For Speech Enhancement [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Usually, hearing impaired people use hearing aids which are implemented with speech enhancement algorithms. Estimation of speech and estimation of nose are the components in single channel speech enhancement system. The main objective of any speech enhancement algorithm is estimation of noise power spectrum for non stationary environment.

How effective are behavioral interventions to increase the take‐up of social benefits? A systematic review of field experiments

open access: yesJournal of Policy Analysis and Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Non‐take‐up of social benefits is a significant policy issue caused by factors such as lack of awareness, compliance costs, and stigma. While public information campaigns, default options, and in‐person assistance are increasingly used, their effectiveness remains poorly understood.

Biomimetic Robotics and Intelligence: A Survey

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Biomimetic robotics and intelligence, inspired by biological systems, integrate biology, engineering, and AI, develops robots capable of adapting to complex environments. By mimicking natural structures and cognitive processes, and employing algorithms like neural networks and genetic algorithms, these systems enhance autonomy and problem‐solving. This

Which Predictor, SctO2 or SstO2, Is more Sensitive for Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction in Spine Surgery: A Prospective Observational Study?

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 15, Issue 1, Page 276-285, January 2023., 2023
The patients with postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) had a higher decrease in intraoperative absolute somatic tissue oxygen saturation (SstO2) decrease (4.9 ± 3.8 vs 3.6 ± 2.6, P = 0.037) (A) and a higher decrease in intraoperative relative SstO2 decrease (7.4 ± 5.6 vs 5.3 ± 3.8, P = 0.036) (B). The proportion below 90% of baseline SstO2 in the

Biological Explanations of Social Inequalities

open access: yesPacific Philosophical Quarterly, Volume 103, Issue 4, Page 694-719, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Inequalities of social goods between gender, racial, or other groups call out for explanation. Such inequalities might be explained by socialization and discrimination. But historically some have attributed these inequalities to biological differences between social groups. Such explanations are highly controversial: on the one hand, they have

English in Displacement: Language Learning and Test Preparation Experiences of Refugees and Asylum Seekers

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract In an effort to better support adult and refugee English language learners, this paper aims to focus on understanding the needs and experiences of one specific group, that is, refugee and asylum seeker healthcare professionals (RASHPs), based in the United Kingdom. RASHPs tend to be highly educated and experienced learners.

Performance and reliability evaluation of an improved machine learning‐based pure‐tone audiometry with automated masking

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Automated air‐conduction pure‐tone audiograms through Bayesian estimation and machine learning (ML) classification have recently been proposed in the literature. Although such ML‐based audiometry approaches represent a significant addition to the field, they remain unsuited for daily clinical settings, in particular for listeners ...

Within‐ and between‐subject consistency of perceptual segmentation in periodic noise: A combined behavioral tapping and EEG study

open access: yesPsychophysiology, Volume 60, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
Abstract It is remarkable that human listeners can perceive periodicity in noise, as the isochronous repetition of a particular noise segment is not accompanied by salient physical cues in the acoustic signal. Previous research suggested that listeners rely on short temporally local and idiosyncratic features to perceptually segment periodic noise ...
