Tracing the reverberation lag in the hard state of black hole X-ray binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We report results obtained from a systematic analysis of X-ray lags in a sample of black hole X-ray binaries, with the aim of assessing the presence of reverberation lags and studying their evolution during outburst.

Augmenting Environmental Interaction in Audio Feedback Systems

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2016
Audio feedback is defined as a positive feedback of acoustic signals where an audio input and output form a loop, and may be utilized artistically. This article presents new context-based controls over audio feedback, leading to the generation of desired

Classroom acoustics and hearing ability as determinants for perceived social climate and intentions to stay at work

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2013
Background noise and room acoustics may impede social interactions by interfering with oral communication and other cognitive processes. Accordingly, recent research in school environments has showed that social relationships with peers and teachers are ...

Reverberation suppression algorithm for LS beamforming based on Wiener post-filter

open access: yesDianzi Jishu Yingyong, 2018
Reverberation causes speech signal time and frequency to blur, and speech is difficult to understand when serious. In order to improve the speech quality, this paper presents a least squares beamforming reverberation suppression algorithm with Wiener ...

Noise-robust blind reverberation time estimation using noise-aware time-frequency masking [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The reverberation time is one of the most important parameters used to characterize the acoustic property of an enclosure. In real-world scenarios, it is much more convenient to estimate the reverberation time blindly from recorded speech compared to the traditional acoustic measurement techniques using professional measurement instruments.

An Evaluation of Three-Stage Voice Conversion Framework for Noisy and Reverberant Conditions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
This paper presents a new voice conversion (VC) framework capable of dealing with both additive noise and reverberation, and its performance evaluation. There have been studied some VC researches focusing on real-world circumstances where speech data are interfered with background noise and reverberation. To deal with more practical conditions where no
