  1. 6. The diagnosis and protection of the auditory peripheral system

    Författare :Mao Li Duan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Cochlea; inner hair cell; outer hair cell; glutamate; post-synaptic receptor; auditory brainstem response; forward masking; noise trauma; hearing loss;

    Sammanfattning : The main focus of this thesis is on the diagnosis and prevention of peripheral hearing loss. An auditory evoked response measure (forward masking) was developed that specifically tests the function of the inner hair cells, independently of the outer hair cells. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Interactive sonification of motion : Design, implementation and control of expressive auditory feedback with mobile devices

    Författare :Gaël Dubus; Roberto Bresin; Paul Vickers; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Speech and Music Communication; Tal- och musikkommunikation;

    Sammanfattning : Sound and motion are intrinsically related, by their physical nature and through the link between auditory perception and motor control. If sound provides information about the characteristics of a movement, a movement can also be influenced or triggered by a sound pattern. LÄS MER

  4. 8. The linear and nonlinear biomechanics of the middle ear

    Författare :Thomas Wright; Martin Lesser; Viktor Beryuk; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; biomechanics; middle ear models; ossicular chain; Bioteknik; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses the biomechanics of the human middle ear, that part of the auditory system which converts sound pressure waves in air to fluid pressure waves in the cochlea. The middle ear's mechanism is analysed in four papers, three main and one supporting; in the main papers the middle ear is treated as a multi-particle, multi-rigid body ensemble possessing a variable number of degrees of freedom depending upon the case being investigated.

    Författare :Per Emgård; Sten Hellström; Dan Bagger-sjöbäck; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; external otitis; external auditory canal EAC ; animal model; treatment; betamethasone; hydrocortisone; antibiotics; human study; Pseudomonas aeruginosa; Candida albicans.; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; oto-rhino-laryngologi;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT External otitis and its treatment. Is a group III steroid without antibiotics sufficient therapy? – Experimental and clinical studies Per Emgård, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, University of Umeå and Ystad Hospital, Umeå and Ystad, Sweden External otitis is one of the most common ear, nose and throat (ENT) diagnoses in out-patient clinics.

  7. 10. A study on selecting and optimizing perceptually relevant features for automatic speech recognition

    Författare :Christos Koniaris; W. Bastiaan Kleijn; Richard Heusdens; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The performance of an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system strongly depends on the representation used for the front-end. If the extracted features do not include all relevant information, the performance of the classification stage is inherently suboptimal. LÄS MER
