Conventional passive tracking methods for underwater acoustic targets in sonar engineering generate time azimuth histogram and use it as a basis for target azimuth and tracking. Passive underwater acoustic targets only have azimuth information on the...
Speech with high sound quality and little noise is central to many of our communication tools, including calls, video conferencing and hearing aids. While human ratings provide the best measure of sound quality, they are costly and time-intensive to ...

Acoustic holography has been gaining attention for various applications, such as noncontact particle manipulation, noninvasive neuromodulation, and medical imaging. However, only a few studies on how to generate acoustic holograms have been conducted...
Most methodologies for fault detection and diagnosis in prognostics and health management (PHM) systems use machine learning (ML) or deep learning (DL), in which either some features are extracted beforehand (in the case of typical ML approaches) or ...

Neurogenic voice disorders (NVDs) are caused by damage or malfunction of the central or peripheral nervous system that controls vocal fold movement. In this paper, we investigate the potential of the Fisher vector (FV) encoding in automatic detection...
This study aimed to automatically classify live cells based on their cell type by analyzing the patterns of backscattered signals of cells with minimal effect on normal cell physiology and activity. Our previous studies have demonstrated that label-f...

OBJECTIVES: Machine learning (ML) methods allow the development of expert systems for pattern recognition and predictive analysis of intervention outcomes. It has been used in Voice Sciences, mainly to discriminate between healthy and dysphonic voice...
The wide range of unmanned aerial system (UAS) applications has led to a substantial increase in their numbers, giving rise to a whole new area of systems aiming at detecting and/or mitigating their potentially unauthorized activities. The majority o...
Dose delivery uncertainty is a major concern in proton therapy, adversely affecting the treatment precision and outcome. Recently, a promising technique, proton-acoustic (PA) imaging, has been developed to provide real-time3D dose verification. Howev...
