Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) read neural signals directly from the brain to infer motor planning and execution. However, the implementation of this technology has been largely limited to laboratory settings, with few real-world…
End-to-end (E2E) modeling is advantageous for automatic speech recognition (ASR) especially for Japanese since word-based tokenization of Japanese is not trivial, and E2E modeling is able to model character sequences directly. This paper…
Robust decoding and classification of brain patterns measured with electroencephalography (EEG) remains a major challenge for real-world (i.e. outside scientific lab and medical facilities) brain-computer interface (BCI) applications due to…
Electroencephalography (EEG) signals elicited by multimodal stimuli can drive brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), and research has demonstrated that visual and auditory stimuli can be employed simultaneously to improve BCI performance.…
The integration of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) into the realm of smart wheelchair (SW) technology signifies a notable leap forward in enhancing the mobility and autonomy of individuals with physical disabilities. BCIs are a technology…
Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) initially gained attention for developing applications that aid physically impaired individuals. Recently, the idea of integrating BCI with Augmented Reality (AR) emerged, which uses BCI not only to enhance…
Brain-computer interface (BCI) provides a direct communication pathway between human brain and external devices. Before a new subject could use BCI, a calibration procedure is usually required. Because the inter- and intra-subject variances…
Language students can increase their effectiveness in learning written Japanese by mastering the visual structure and written technique of Japanese kanji. Yet, existing kanji handwriting recognition systems do not assess the written…
This paper presents an applied concept of a brain-computer interface (BCI) student research laboratory (BCI-LAB) at the Life Science Center of TARA, University of Tsukuba, Japan. Several successful case studies of the student projects are…
Speech enhancement (SE) is critical for improving speech intelligibility and quality in real-world environments, particularly for cochlear implant (CI) users who experience severe degradations in speech understanding under noisy and…
Kuzushiji was one of the most popular writing styles in pre-modern Japan and was widely used in both personal letters and official documents. However, due to its highly cursive forms and extensive glyph variations, most modern Japanese…
Cochlear implants (CIs) provide a solution for individuals with severe sensorineural hearing loss to regain their hearing abilities. When someone experiences this form of hearing impairment in both ears, they may be equipped with two…
This study addresses the TAUKADIAL challenge, focusing on the classification of speech from people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and neurotypical controls. We conducted three experiments comparing five machine-learning methods:…
Brain computer interfaces (BCI) decode the electrophysiological signals from the brain into an action that is carried out by a computer or robotic device. Motor imagery BCIs (MI BCI) rely on the user s imagination of bodily movements,…
Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) bridges the human's neural world and the outer physical world by decoding individuals' brain signals into commands recognizable by computer devices. Deep learning has lifted the performance of brain-computer…
Silent speech interfaces (SSI) has been an exciting area of recent interest. In this paper, we present a non-invasive silent speech interface that uses inaudible acoustic signals to capture people's lip movements when they speak. We exploit…
We introduce BANC, a neural binaural audio codec designed for efficient speech compression in single and two-speaker scenarios while preserving the spatial location information of each speaker. Our key contributions are as follows: 1) The…
A brain-computer interface (BCI) is a system that allows a human operator to use only mental commands in controlling end effectors that interact with the world around them. Such a system consists of a measurement device to record the human…
Individuals with a locked-in state live with severe whole-body paralysis that limits their ability to communicate with family and loved ones. Recent advances in the brain-computer interface (BCI) technology have presented a potential…
Recognizing the full-page of Japanese historical documents is a challenging problem due to the complex layout/background and difficulty of writing styles, such as cursive and connected characters. Most of the previous methods divided the…
