Human-inspired sound environment recognition system for assistive vehicles.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: The human auditory system acquires environmental information under sound stimuli faster than visual or touch systems, which in turn, allows for faster human responses to such stimuli. It also complements senses such as sight, where direct ...

Distinct processing stages of cross-modal conflict in schizophrenia: The role of auditory cortex underactivation.

Schizophrenia research
BACKGROUND: The cross-modal conflict deficit is a key feature of schizophrenia. However, it remains largely unknown whether cross-modal conflict in schizophrenia diverges at distinct processing stages and its potential association with the auditory c...

Robot or human musicians? The modulating role of perceived performer on how music influences food choices.

Applied psychology. Health and well-being
Previous research has shown that music robots may reshape people's perceptions of music and health-related behaviors. We investigated how the perceived identity of the music performers (humans or robots) influenced people's music-induced mental image...

Predicting artificial neural network representations to learn recognition model for music identification from brain recordings.

Scientific reports
Recent studies have demonstrated that the representations of artificial neural networks (ANNs) can exhibit notable similarities to cortical representations when subjected to identical auditory sensory inputs. In these studies, the ability to predict ...

Enhancing music recognition using deep learning-powered source separation technology for cochlear implant users.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
Cochlear implant (CI) is currently the vital technological device for assisting deaf patients in hearing sounds and greatly enhances their sound listening appreciation. Unfortunately, it performs poorly for music listening because of the insufficient...

A Deep Learning Based Approach to Synthesize Intelligible Speech with Limited Temporal Envelope Information.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Envelope waveforms can be extracted from multiple frequency bands of a speech signal, and envelope waveforms carry important intelligibility information for human speech communication. This study aimed to investigate whether a deep learning-based mod...

Hierarchical Learning of Statistical Regularities over Multiple Timescales of Sound Sequence Processing: A Dynamic Causal Modeling Study.

Journal of cognitive neuroscience
Our understanding of the sensory environment is contextualized on the basis of prior experience. Measurement of auditory ERPs provides insight into automatic processes that contextualize the relevance of sound as a function of how sequences change ov...

Perceptual Effects of Adjusting Hearing-Aid Gain by Means of a Machine-Learning Approach Based on Individual User Preference.

Trends in hearing
This study investigated a method to adjust hearing-aid gain by use of a machine-learning algorithm that estimates the optimal setting of gain parameters based on user preference indicated in an iterative paired-comparison procedure. Twenty hearing-im...

Improving the performance of hearing aids in noisy environments based on deep learning technology.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The performance of a deep-learning-based speech enhancement (SE) technology for hearing aid users, called a deep denoising autoencoder (DDAE), was investigated. The hearing-aid speech perception index (HASPI) and the hearing- aid sound quality index ...

Deep learning models to remix music for cochlear implant users.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
The severe hearing loss problems that some people suffer can be treated by providing them with a surgically implanted electrical device called cochlear implant (CI). CI users struggle to perceive complex audio signals such as music; however, previous...
