  1. 1. Effects of Specific Cochlear Pathologies on the Auditory Functions : Modelling, Simulations and Clinical Implications

    Author : Amin G. Saremi; Stefan Stenfelt; Steve Elliott; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Auditory modeling; cochlear mechanics; sensorineural hearing impairment; age-related hearing loss; noise-induced hearing loss; inner ear pathologies;

    Abstract : A hearing impairment is primarily diagnosed by measuring the hearing thresholds at a range of auditory frequencies (air-conduction audiometry). Although this clinical procedure is simple, affordable, reliable and fast, it does not offer differential information about origins of the hearing impairment. READ MORE

  2. 2. Recognition and Generation of Communicative Signals : Modeling of Hand Gestures, Speech Activity and Eye-Gaze in Human-Machine Interaction

    Author : Kalin Stefanov; Jonas Beskow; Gerasimos Potamianos; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Nonverbal communication is essential for natural and effective face-to-face human-human interaction. It is the process of communicating through sending and receiving wordless (mostly visual, but also auditory) signals between people. Consequently, a natural and effective face-to-face human-machine interaction requires machines (e.g. READ MORE

  3. 3. Neural correlates of irrelevant speech

    Author : Jens Gisselgård; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The irrelevant speech effect refers to a reduction in the immediate serial recall of lists of presented items when irrelevant auditory material is presented together with the items to be memorized. The ability to ignore irrelevant distractors is vital in increasingly demanding work environments and the capability to keep information in and out of mind is central in human information processing.
