Simultaneous relative cue reliance in speech-on-speech masking

R. A. Lutfi, M. Zandona et al.

Modern hearing research has identified the ability of listeners to segregate simultaneous speech streams with a reliance on three major voice cues, fundamental frequency, level, and location...

Ultrasound imaging of lung disease and its relationship to histopathology: An experimentally validated simulation approach

Oleksii Ostras, Ihor Shponka et el.

Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a widely used technique in clinical lung assessment, yet the relationship between LUS images and the underlying disease remains poorly understood due in part to the...

Passive earplug including Helmholtz resonators arranged in series to achieve broadband near zero occlusion effect at low frequencies

Kévin Carillo, Franck Sgard et el.

The use of passive earplugs is often associated with the occlusion effect: a phenomenon described as the increased auditory perception of one's own physiological noise at low frequencies...

Study of “half-integer” harmonics in recorder tones and some speculations about their origin

Nicholas Giordano, Katherine L. Saenger

The musical notes produced by recorders and other flue instruments consist primarily of spectral components with frequencies given approximately by

n f_{1}

⁠, where

n

is an integer and

f_{1}

is the...

Effect of ambisonic order on spatial release from masking

John F. Culling, A. Ottopea Akrofi et al.

In two experiments, spatial release from masking (SRM) was measured using an ambisonic reproduction system for a range of different ambisonic orders. The first experiment used ambisonic panning while ...
