Stress and odor sensitivity in persons with noise sensitivity
Noise and Health, 2013 Previous research has indicated that sensory sensitivity/intolerance to a specific modality may be part of a more general environmental hypersensitivity, and possibly mediated by stress. This study investigated the relationship between noise sensitivity, perceived stress, and odor sensitivity in a group of men. A quasi-experimental design was used. One-

Road traffic noise and health-related quality of life: A cross-sectional study
Noise and Health, 2013 Evidence is emerging linking environmental noise to health problems. Noise can affect health directly and indirectly: For example, noise sensitivity moderates the effects of noise annoyance, which in turn mediates the effects of noise exposure.

Teachers’ Noise Sensitivity and Efforts to Prevent Noise Pollution in School [PDF]
Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2021 The noise phenomenon at school is one of the factors that may negatively affect school climate. Purpose In this study, the noise sensitivity and coping efforts of classroom teachers who intensely experienced noise phenomenon in their school were determined using basic qualitative research.

Cooperativity, Sensitivity, and Noise in Biochemical Signaling [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2008 Cooperative interactions among the binding of multiple signaling molecules is a common mechanism for enhancing the sensitivity of biological signaling systems. It is widely assumed that this increase in sensitivity of the mean response implies the ability to detect smaller signals.

Noise sensitivity signatures for model selection [PDF]
Proceedings of the 12th IAPR International Conference on Pattern Recognition (Cat. No.94CH3440-5), 2002 Presents a method for calculating the "noise sensitivity signature" of a learning algorithm which is based on scrambling the output classes of various fractions of the training data. This signature can be used to indicate a good (or bad) match between the complexity of the classifier and the complexity of the data and hence to improve the predictive ...

Gaussian Noise Sensitivity and BosonSampling
CoRR, 2014 We study the sensitivity to noise of |permanent(X)|^2 for random real and complex n x n Gaussian matrices X, and show that asymptotically the correlation between the noisy and noiseless outcomes tends to zero when the noise level is ω(1)/n. This suggests that, under certain reasonable noise models, the probability distributions produced by noisy ...

Hyperacusis in Autism Spectrum Disorders
Audiology Research, 2021 Hyperacusis is highly prevalent in the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) population. This auditory hypersensitivity can trigger pragmatically atypical reactions that may impact social and academic domains.
