  2. 6. Acoustic Sound Source Localisation and Tracking : in Indoor Environments

    Author : Anders Johansson; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Room acoustics; Speaker localisation; Tracking; State-space filter; Sequential Monte Carlo method; Particle filter;

    Abstract : With advances in micro-electronic complexity and fabrication, sophisticated algorithms for source localisation and tracking can now be deployed in cost sensitive appliances for both consumer and commercial markets. As a result, such algorithms are becoming ubiquitous elements of contemporary communication, robotics and surveillance systems. READ MORE

  5. 8. Voice function and quality of life in laryngectomees

    Author : Elisabet Lundström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Individuals who undergo laryngectomy, surgical removal of the larynx, loose their normal voice. The breathing pattern is altered to permanent tracheostomal breathing. A new voice can be established by use of a segment in the lower part of the pharynx and the most upper part of the esophagus, the pharyngo-esophageal (PE) segment. READ MORE

  6. 9. Afloat and Aflame. Deconstructing the Long 19th century Port City Gothenburg through Newspaper Archaeology

    Author : Martina Hjertman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; historical archaeology; digital history; media history; newspaper archaeology; newspaper studies; urbanity; marginality; othering; suburb; discourse; worldmaking; counter-narrative; counter- voice; modern era; port city; slum; those ‘of little note’; fire; travelogues; Göteborg; Majorna;

    Abstract : In line with the international historical-archaeological discipline, this study aims to increase knowledge of marginalising processes and disenfranchised groups in the past and to contribute to the recognised Swedish need to augment the know-how of researching people ‘of little note’ in urban environments. The study aspires a theoretically engaged empirical alternative for developing new knowledge about urban places which are not possible to excavate or where archaeological data is insufficient, while evincing how digitized historical newspapers can step in as a multifaceted historical- archaeological source.

  7. 10. Breathing and phonation : effects of lung volume and breathing behaviour on voice function

    Author : Jenny Iwarsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Abduction; Adduction; Breathing; Flow glottogram; Inhalation; Lung volume; Perceptual analysis; Phonation; Posture; Speech lung volume; Speech task; Subglottal pressure; Tracheal pull; Vertical laryngeal position; Vocal fold nodules; Voice source;

    Abstract : Respiration is believed to play a central role in voice function and is thus of relevance to the clinical care of the disordered voice. The overall aim of the present study was to experimentally investigate relationships between the respiratory and phonatory systems. READ MORE
