Determining biosonar images using sparse representations

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2009
Echolocating bats are thought to be able to create an image of their environment by emitting pulses and analyzing the reflected echoes. In this paper, the theory of sparse representations and its more recent further development into compressed sensing are applied to this biosonar image formation task.

Biosonar in a textured world

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1999
Capabilities of bats to analyze spectral profiles have been demonstrated by several researchers. However, suggestions as to the informational content of the biologically accessible features in terms of the echo-generating process are not yet entirely convincing.

Cetacean biosonar and noise pollution

Europe Oceans 2005, 2005
Noise pollution in the marine environment is an emerging but serious concern. Its implications are less well understood than other global threats and largely undetectable to everyone but the specialist. In addition, the assessment of the acoustic impact of artificial sounds in the sea is not a trivial task, certainly because there is a lack of ...

Biosonar-inspired technology: goals, challenges and insights

Bioinspiration & Biomimetics, 2007
Bioinspired engineering based on biosonar systems in nature is reviewed and discussed in terms of the merits of different approaches and their results: biosonar systems are attractive technological paragons because of their capabilities, built-in task-specific knowledge, intelligent system integration and diversity.

Cepstral processing for bat biosonar

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2006
Bats routinely discriminate multiple glint targets whose interglint time spacings are much less than the integration time of the bat auditory system. This suggests that the bats are exploiting spectral cues in the received echos to resolve the glints. Closely spaced glints cause notches and peaks in the received signal spectrum with frequency spacings ...

Biosonar and Neural Computation in Bats

Scientific American, 1990
It used to be a common misconcep­ tion that bats' use of sound puls­ es to navigate and locate prey is a crude system, the acoustic equivalent of feeling one's way in the dark with a cane. But biosonar has since been shown to be anything but crude: an echolocating bat can pursue and cap­ ture a fleeing moth with a facility and success rate that would ...

Biosonar navigation above water II: exploiting mirror images

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2015
As in vision, acoustic signals can be reflected by a smooth surface creating an acoustic mirror image. Water bodies represent the only naturally occurring horizontal and acoustically smooth surfaces. Echolocating bats flying over smooth water bodies encounter echo-acoustic mirror images of objects above the surface.
