The coherent equalization problem consists in designing a quantum system acting as a mean-square near-optimal filter for a given quantum communication channel. The paper develops an improved method for the synthesis of transfer functions…
The current methods of assessing tendon health such as clinical examination, imaging techniques, and implanted pressure sensors, are often based on a subjective assessment or are not accurate enough, are extremely expensive, or are limited…
Speech enhancement attenuates interfering sounds in speech signals but may introduce artifacts that perceivably deteriorate the output signal. We propose a method for controlling the trade-off between the attenuation of the interfering…
The electroacoustic resonator is an effcient electro-active device for noise attenuation in enclosed cavities or acoustic waveguides. It is made of a loudspeaker (the actuator) and one or more microphones (the sensors). So far, the desired…
The absorption of sound has great significance in many scientific and engineering applications, from room acoustics to noise mitigation. In this context, porous materials have emerged as a viable solution towards high absorption performance…
Loudspeaker rendering techniques that create phantom sound sources often assume an equidistant loudspeaker layout. Typical home setups might not fulfill this condition as loudspeakers deviate from canonical positions, thus requiring a…
During speech perception, a listener's electroencephalogram (EEG) reflects acoustic-level processing as well as higher-level cognitive factors such as speech comprehension and attention. However, decoding speech from EEG recordings is…
An important problem to be solved in modeling head-related impulse responses (HRIRs) is how to individualize HRIRs so that they are suitable for a listener. We modeled the entire magnitude head-related transfer functions (HRTFs), in…
Personalized head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) are essential for ensuring a realistic auditory experience over headphones, because they take into account individual anatomical differences that affect listening. Most machine learning…
While self-supervised learning (SSL) has revolutionized audio representation, the excessive parameterization and quadratic computational cost of standard Transformers limit their deployment on resource-constrained devices. To address this…
