Reproducing real world acoustics in virtual reality using spherical cameras

, 2019
Virtual Reality (VR) systems have been intensely explored, with several research communities investigating the different modalities involved. Regarding the audio modality, one of the main issues is the generation of sound that is perceptually coherent ...

AI Revolution and Warfare: A New Paradigm Shifts in Defence Procurement, Restructuring, Training, and Recruitment

Canadian Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract The war in Ukraine and Israel's successful operations have demonstrated the apparent shift in military operations, strategic defence spending, and innovations. Drawing parallels to the industrial revolution and how it slowly transferred military procurement, training, and deployment, the current study also highlights the AI revolution and the ...

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

Interactive Geometry-Based Acoustics for Virtual Environments Using the Graphics Card

, 2017
The acoustics of a space contribute much to the perceived size and atmosphere of the environment. Modeling these acoustics in virtual environments can make a big improvement to the immersion of the player.

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) kelt rheotaxis and position choice are influenced by flow velocity and turbulence in a regulated river

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The migratory behaviour of Atlantic salmon kelts is poorly understood. Due to the Atlantic salmon's considerable socio‐economic and ecological importance, their precipitous population abundance declines, and the population resilience potential of salmon kelts, addressing these knowledge gaps is important.

Differentiable Active Acoustics: Optimizing Stability via Gradient Descent

Active acoustics (AA) refers to an electroacoustic system that actively modifies the acoustics of a room. For common use cases, the number of transducers---loudspeakers and microphones---involved in the system is large, resulting in a large number of ...

Reverberation enhancement for small rooms

, 2012
Reverberation enhancement is a technology which allows the reverberation time of a room to be increased through the use of an electronic system. These systems have traditionally been applied to improve the acoustics of large concert halls but the ...

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...
