Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) will play an in-creasing role in improving the quality of medical care for critically ill patients. However, due to limitations in current informatics infrastructure, CDSS do not always have…
In post-covid19 world, radio frequency (RF)-based non-contact methods, e.g., software-defined radios (SDR)-based methods have emerged as promising candidates for intelligent remote sensing of human vitals, and could help in containment of…
Today, data collection has improved in various areas, and the medical domain is no exception. Auscultation, as an important diagnostic technique for physicians, due to the progress and availability of digital stethoscopes, lends itself well…
Many hearables contain an in-ear microphone, which may be used to capture the own voice of its user. However, due to the hearable occluding the ear canal, the in-ear microphone mostly records body-conducted speech, typically suffering from…
Speech separation is an important problem in speech processing, which targets to separate and generate clean speech from a mixed audio containing speech from different speakers. Empowered by the deep learning technologies over…
Speech is a rich biomarker that encodes substantial information about the health of a speaker, and thus it has been proposed for the detection of numerous diseases, achieving promising results. However, questions remain about what the…
The self-supervised objective of masking-and-predicting has led to promising performance gains on a variety of downstream tasks. However, while most approaches randomly mask tokens, there is strong intuition that deciding what to mask can…
There exists a recent mathematical proof on the existence of small amplitude breathers in FPU systems near the phonon band, which includes a prediction of their amplitude and width. In this work we obtain numerically these breathers, and…
In this work, we address a novel, but potentially emerging, problem of discriminating the natural human voices and those played back by any kind of audio devices in the context of interactions with in-house voice user interface. The tackled…
We present a model of a coupled system of the olfactory bulb and cortex. Odor inputs to the epithelium are transformed to oscillatory bulbar activities. The cortex recognizes the odor by resonating to the bulbar oscillating pattern when the…
In high-noise environments such as factories, subways, and busy streets, capturing clear speech is challenging. Throat microphones can offer a solution because of their inherent noise-suppression capabilities; however, the passage of sound…
The strong, continuous progresses in gas sensors and electronic noses resulted in improved performance and enabled an increasing range of applications with large impact on modern societies, such as environmental monitoring, food quality…
It is widely accepted that information derived from analyzing speech (the acoustic signal) and language production (words and sentences) serves as a useful window into the health of an individual's cognitive ability. In fact, most…
Health acoustic sounds such as coughs and breaths are known to contain useful health signals with significant potential for monitoring health and disease, yet are underexplored in the medical machine learning community. The existing deep…
The olfactory system employs responses of an ensemble of odorant receptors (ORs) to sense molecules and to generate olfactory percepts. Here we hypothesized that ORs can be viewed as 3D spatial filters that extract molecular features…
Brain signals accompany various information relevant to human actions and mental imagery, making them crucial to interpreting and understanding human intentions. Brain-computer interface technology leverages this brain activity to generate…
Vowels are primarily characterized by tongue position. Humans have discovered these features of vowel articulation through their own experience and explicit objective observation such as using MRI. With this knowledge and our experience, we…
Identifying relevant machine-learning features for multi-sensing platforms is both an applicative limitation to recognize environments and a necessity to interpret the physical relevance of transducers' complementarity in their information…
The speech signal is a consummate example of time-series data. The acoustics of the signal change over time, sometimes dramatically. Yet, the most common type of comparison we perform in phonetics is between instantaneous acoustic…
Cross-corpus speech emotion recognition (SER) plays a vital role in numerous practical applications. Traditional approaches to cross-corpus emotion transfer often concentrate on adapting acoustic features to align with different corpora,…
