TASED-Net is a 3D fully-convolutional network architecture for video saliency detection. It consists of two building blocks: first, the encoder network extracts low-resolution spatiotemporal features from an input clip of several…
We propose AuralNet, a novel 3D multi-source binaural sound source localization approach that localizes overlapping sources in both azimuth and elevation without prior knowledge of the number of sources. AuralNet employs a gated…
Ultrasound imaging is a prevalent diagnostic tool known for its simplicity and non-invasiveness. However, its inherent characteristics often introduce substantial noise, posing considerable challenges for automated lesion or organ…
In a multi-speaker "cocktail party" scenario, a listener can selectively attend to a speaker of interest. Studies into the human auditory attention network demonstrate cortical entrainment to speech envelopes resulting in highly correlated…
Breast ultrasound imaging is a valuable tool for early breast cancer detection, but automated tumor segmentation is challenging due to inherent noise, variations in scale of lesions, and fuzzy boundaries. To address these challenges, we…
Auditory attention is a selective type of hearing in which people focus their attention intentionally on a specific source of a sound or spoken words whilst ignoring or inhibiting other auditory stimuli. In some sense, the auditory…
Carrying conversations in multi-sound environments is one of the more challenging tasks, since the sounds overlap across time and frequency making it difficult to understand a single sound source. One proposed approach to help isolate an…
We address the fundamental incompatibility of attention-based encoder-decoder (AED) models with long-form acoustic encodings. AED models trained on segmented utterances learn to encode absolute frame positions by exploiting limited acoustic…
Recent advances in reconstructing speech envelopes from Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals have enabled continuous auditory attention decoding (AAD) in multi-speaker environments. Most Deep Neural Network (DNN)-based envelope reconstruction…
We propose a novel method for Acoustic Event Detection (AED). In contrast to speech, sounds coming from acoustic events may be produced by a wide variety of sources. Furthermore, distinguishing them often requires analyzing an extended time…
