2D sound-source localization on the binaural manifold [PDF]

2012 IEEE International Workshop on Machine Learning for Signal Processing, 2012
The problem of 2D sound-source localization based on a robotic binaural setup and audio-motor learning is addressed. We first introduce a methodology to experimentally verify the existence of a locally-linear bijective mapping between sound-source positions and high-dimensional interaural data, using manifold learning.

The avian head induces cues for sound localization in elevation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Accurate sound source localization in three-dimensional space is essential for an animal's orientation and survival. While the horizontal position can be determined by interaural time and intensity differences, localization in elevation was thought to ...

Nondeterministic sound source localization with smartphones in crowdsensing [PDF]

2016 IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communication Workshops (PerCom Workshops), 2016
The proliferation of smartphones nowadays has enabled many crowd assisted applications including audio-based sensing. In such applications, detected sound sources are meaningless without location information. However, it is challenging to localize sound sources accurately in a crowd using only microphones integrated in smartphones without existing ...

Position-dependent hearing in three species of bushcrickets (Tettigoniidae, Orthoptera) [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2015
A primary task of auditory systems is the localization of sound sources in space. Sound source localization in azimuth is usually based on temporal or intensity differences of sounds between the bilaterally arranged ears.

Pathways and pitfalls: a qualitative study of student experiences in biomedical science education

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Biomedical science students from underrepresented backgrounds face barriers including financial strain, disrupted laboratory access and cultural exclusion. Peer networks provide vital support when institutional systems are difficult to navigate. To create inclusive learning environments and achieve academic success, educators should blend active, hands‐

Binaural Localization for a Mobile Sound Source

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2011
This paper proposes a biologically inspired binaural auditory system to localize a mobile sound source. The robot considered in this paper has two microphones installed on a mobile platform to provide binaural hearing.

Object localization using a biosonar beam: how opening your mouth improves localization [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2015
Determining the location of a sound source is crucial for survival. Both predators and prey usually produce sound while moving, revealing valuable information about their presence and location.

Elevated Connectivity During Language Processing Is Associated With Cognitive Performance in SeLECTS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Self‐Limited Epilepsy with Centrotemporal Spikes (SeLECTS) is associated with language impairments despite seizures originating in the motor cortex, suggesting aberrant cross‐network interactions. Here we tested whether functional connectivity in SeLECTS during language tasks predicts language performance.

Theoretical and experimental study on time-domain monopole time reversal method with excluding autocorrelation

AIP Advances
Monopole time reversal is an advanced noise source localization technique, but its sidelobe level in localizing sound sources is greatly affected by noise, leading to a decrease in the accuracy of sound source localization under a low signal-to-noise ...

Reliability measure for sound source localization

IEICE Electronics Express, 2008
In this paper, we propose a method of measuring the reliability of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation results. One idea for the reliability measure arises from a waterbed effect in DOA estimation. The reliability measure can be obtained from the difference between the maximum and minimum point of cross-correlation.
