‘Hurry Up and Get Me out of Here’: The Experience of People Under 65 Years (Still) Stuck in Aged Care

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, the Australian Government set a target for no‐one under 65 years of age to be living in residential aged care (RAC) by 2025. The numbers of young people in residential aged care (YPIRAC) have significantly declined since the start of the targets.

Audio Hiding based on Wavelet Transform and Linear Predictive Coding

Iraqi Journal for Computers and Informatics, 2016
In this work an efficient method for hiding a speech in audio is proposed. The features of secret speech is extracted with LPC (Linear Predictive Coding), and these parameters embedded in audio in chaotic order.

Novel Ideas for Lossless Audio Coding

International Journal of Electronics and Telecommunications, 2012
Abstract Novel ideas for lossless audio coding analyzed in the paper are linked with forward predictor adaptation, and concern optimization of predictors on the basis of zero-order entropy and MMAE criterions, and context sound coding. Direct use of the former criterion is linked with exponential growth of optimization procedure, hence, a ...

Implementing an Indigenous Research Methodology to Develop a Culturally Appropriate Survey and Yarning Protocol: Challenges With Retention of the Aboriginal Health, Ageing and Disability Workforce

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aboriginal staff play a vital part in improving culturally safe and effective services and supports for Aboriginal people. Research on the Aboriginal workforce helps advance a culturally safe environment for workers and Aboriginal people accessing health and community services. This study aims to identify the barriers and enablers to workforce

Considering Bluetooth's Subband Codec (SBC) for Wideband Speech and Audio on the Internet [PDF]

, 2012
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) has standardized the subband coding (SBC) audio codec to connect headphones via wireless Bluetooth links. SBC compresses audio at high fidelity while having an ultra-low algorithm delay. To make SBC suitable for

Visual Feature Domain Audio Coding for Anomaly Sound Detection Application

Algorithms
Conventional audio and video codecs are designed for human perception, often discarding subtle spectral cues that are essential for machine-based analysis. To overcome this limitation, we propose a machine-oriented compression framework that reinterprets
