  2. 6. Human perception in speech processing

    Author : Volodya Grancharov; Bastiaan Kleijn; Peter Kabal; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; quality assessment; speech enhancement; postfilter; Telecommunication; Telekommunikation;

    Abstract : The emergence of heterogeneous networks and the rapid increase of Voice over IP (VoIP) applications provide important opportunities for the telecommunications market. These opportunities come at the price of increased complexity in the monitoring of the quality of service (QoS) and the need for adaptation of transmission systems to the changing environmental conditions.

  4. 7. Human-computer interaction principles for developing web-based genomics resources

    Author : Chanaka Mannapperuma; Nathaniel Street; John Waterworth; Marek Mutwil; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Genomics projects, including genome sequencing, transcriptomics, genome-wide association mapping and epigenetics assays, producevast quantities of data. Extracting the required information from such complex datasets is a significant challenge and even where software tools do exist, these are often not intuitive or designed fornon-specialist users.

  5. 8. Knowledge-Based Integrated Aircraft Design : An Applied Approach from Design to Concept Demonstration

    Author : Raghu Chaitanya Munjulury; Petter Krus; Tomas Melin; Christopher Jouannet; Gianfranco La Rocca; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The design and development of new aircraft are becoming increasingly expensive and timeconsuming. To assist the design process in reducing the development cost, time, and late design changes, the conceptual design needs enhancement using new tools and methods. READ MORE

  6. 9. Counteracting Acoustic Disturbances in Human Speech Communication

    Author : Nils Westerlund; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Speech Enhancement; Noise Reduction; Hearing Aids; Adaptive Feedback Control; Ear-Mic; Active Noise Control;

    Abstract : A signal can be said to be any information bearing unit or action carrying a message from a sender to a receiver. This definition covers a vast number of human and non-human actions, ranging from flirtation to satellite communication. This thesis deals with increasing the quality of one of the most ubiquitous human-to-human signals: Speech. READ MORE

  7. 10. FINGERPRINT IMAGE ENHANCEMENT, SEGMENTATION AND MINUTIAE DETECTION

    Author : Josef Ström Bartunek; Ingvar Claesson; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; adaptive fingerprint image enhancement; fingerprint segmentation; gray-scale image normalization; minutiae features; neural networks; frequency analysis; kurtosis;

    Abstract : Prior to 1960's, the fingerprint analysis was carried out manually by human experts and for forensic purposes only. Automated fingerprint identification systems (AFIS) have been developed during the last 50 years. The success of AFIS resulted in that its use expanded beyond forensic applications and became common also in civilian applications. READ MORE
