Effects of Different Building Materials and Treatments on Sound Field Characteristics of the Concert Hall

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
The effects of different building materials on sound field characteristics of the concert hall were studied by experimental study and numerical simulations. A single non-directivity excitation sound source in situ test was carried out.

Experimental Study of the Influence of Occupants on Speech Intelligibility in an Automotive Cabin

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Adding occupants to an enclosed space often leads to perceptible changes in the sound field and, therefore, speech intelligibility; however, this issue has not yet been examined in automotive cabins.

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

Fundamental Frequency Model for Postfiltering at Low Bitrates in a Transform-Domain Speech and Audio Codec

open access: yes, 2020
Speech codecs can use postfilters to improve the quality of the decoded signal. While postfiltering is effective in reducing coding artifacts, such methods often involve processing in both the encoder and the decoder, rely on additional transmitted side ...

Mitochondrial translation and coordinated cytosolic translation in metabolic homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial function depends on coordinated protein production from the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. This review highlights how cytosolic and mitochondrial translation, mRNA localization, protein import, and respiratory complex assembly are integrated to maintain mitochondrial proteostasis and function.

Band-pass filtering of the time sequences of spectral parameters for robust wireless speech recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper we address the problem of automatic speech recognition when wireless speech communication systems are involved. In this context, three main sources of distortion should be considered: acoustic environment, speech coding and transmission ...

Spatial Distribution and Influencing Factors of Speech Intelligibility in Round-Table Conversation Scenarios

open access: yesBuildings
Round-table conversations, as common social environments, greatly depend on effective verbal communication to enrich the interactive experience. However, considerable variations in speech intelligibility (SI) occur among listeners at different positions ...

A wavelet-based noise reduction algorithm and its clinical evaluation in cochlear implants. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Noise reduction is often essential for cochlear implant (CI) recipients to achieve acceptable speech perception in noisy environments. Most noise reduction algorithms applied to audio signals are based on time-frequency representations of the input, such

The Assessment of Acoustical Characteristics for Recent Mosque Buildings in Erbil City of Iraq

open access: yesARO-The Scientific Journal of Koya University, 2021
The study of mosque acoustics, concerning acoustical features, sound quality for speech intelligibility, and additional practical acoustic criteria, is commonly overlooked.
