The evolution of behavioral cues and signaling in displaced communication

Displaced communication, whereby individuals communicate regarding a subject that is not immediately present (spatially or temporally), is one of the key features of human language. It also occurs in a few animal species, most notably the honeybee, where t ...

Non-verbal Communication between Humans and Robots: Imitation, Mutual Understanding and Inferring Object Properties

Nuno Ricardo Ferreira Duarte

Humans can express their actions and intentions, resorting to verbal and/or non-verbal communication. In verbal communication, humans use language to express, in structured linguistic terms, the desired action they wish to perform. Non-verbal communication ...

Auditory externalization of a remote microphone signal

Vincent Pierre Olivier Grimaldi

A remote microphone (RM) system can be used in combination with wearable binaural communication devices, such as hearing aids (HAs), to improve speech intelligibility. Typically, a speaker is equipped with a body-worn microphone which enables to pick up th ...

TOPO-Loss for continuity-preserving crack detection using deep learning

Pascal Fua, Katrin Beyer, Radhakrishna Achanta, Bryan German Pantoja Rosero, Doruk Oner, Fernando Perez Cruz

We present a method for segmenting cracks in images of masonry buildings damaged by earthquakes. Existing methods of crack detection fail to preserve the continuity of cracks, and their performance deteriorates with imprecise training labels. We address th ...

Learning-based Image Coding: Early Solutions Reviewing and Subjective Quality Evaluation

Touradj Ebrahimi, Pinar Akyazi

Nowadays, image and video are the data types that consume most of the resources of modern communication channels, both in fixed and wireless networks. Thus, it is vital to compress visual data as much as possible, while maintaining some target quality leve ...

Repeat stereotactic radiosurgery for progressive vestibular schwannomas after previous radiosurgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Constantin Tuleasca, Adrien Jean Régis Maurice Hilaire

Vestibular schwannomas (VS) are slow-growing intracranial extraaxial benign tumors, developing from the vestibular part of the eight cranial nerves. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has now a long-term scientific track record as first intention treatment fo ...

Late Fusion of the Available Lexicon and Raw Waveform-based Acoustic Modeling for Depression and Dementia Recognition

Petr Motlicek, Mathew Magimai Doss, Julian David Fritsch, Subrahmanya Pavankumar Dubagunta

Mental disorders, e.g. depression and dementia, are categorized as priority conditions according to the World Health Organization (WHO). When diagnosing, psychologists employ structured questionnaires/interviews, and different cognitive tests. Although acc ...

Dissecting self-voice perception: From bone conduction to robotically-induced self-other voice misattribution in healthy listeners

Pavo Orepic

Inspired by the prominent theory suggesting that auditory-verbal hallucinations (AVH) - the sensation of hearing voices without present speakers - arise as misattribution of inner speech towards external agents, my thesis revolved around self-voice percept ...

Hybrid integrated photonics using bulk acoustic resonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Michail Zervas, Junqiu Liu

Integrated photonic devices based on Si3N4 waveguides allow for the exploitation of nonlinear frequency conversion, exhibit low propagation loss, and have led to advances in compact atomic clocks, ultrafast ranging, and spectroscopy. Yet, the lack of Pocke ...

Radial Scope: A New Visualization Tool for Structure-Data Relationships

Communication of data associated with chemical structures in a concise fashion can be challenging. Here, we describe an alternative to the classic substrate table that integrates numerical data with struttural changes. These radial-scopeplots facilitate th ...
