Novel Methods for Incorporating Prior Knowledge for Automatic Speech Assessment

Subrahmanya Pavankumar Dubagunta

Speech signal conveys several kinds of information such as a message, speaker identity, emotional state of the speaker and social state of the speaker. Automatic speech assessment is a broad area that refers to using automatic methods to predict human judg ...

Toward higher-performance bionic limbs for wider clinical use

Silvestro Micera

Most prosthetic limbs can autonomously move with dexterity, yet they are not perceived by the user as belonging to their own body. Robotic limbs can convey information about the environment with higher precision than biological limbs, but their actual perf ...

Historical City Maps Semantic Segmentation Dataset

Rémi Guillaume Petitpierre

This dataset includes a total of 635 annotated image patches from historical city maps. It is designed for the semantic segmentation of the maps into 5 semantic classes (building blocks, non-built, water, road network, background frame). 330 patches are ta ...

Untersuchung der ökomorphologischen Wirksamkeit von Sedimentzugaben unterhalb von Talsperren [Assessment of the eco-morphological effectiveness of sediment augmentation downstream of dams]

Giovanni De Cesare, Christian Mörtl

The regulation of discharge and the retention of sediments in reservoirs disturb the natural water dynamics in residual flow stretches below reservoirs. However, a dynamic river morphology as well as near-natural hydrological hydrographs are fundamental ...

Bayesian Methods for the Identification of Distribution Networks

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Pulkit Nahata, Jean-Sébastien Hubert Brouillon

The increasing integration of intermittent renewable generation, especially at the distribution level, necessitates advanced planning and optimisation methodologies contingent on the knowledge of the admittance matrix, capturing the topology and line param ...

Information Theoretic Characterization of Uncertainty Distinguishes Surprise From Accuracy Signals in the Brain

Kerstin Preuschoff, Leyla Loued-Khenissi

Uncertainty presents a problem for both human and machine decision-making. While utility maximization has traditionally been viewed as the motive force behind choice behavior, it has been theorized that uncertainty minimization may supersede reward motivat ...

Restoration of sensory information via bionic hands

Silvestro Micera

This Review discusses non-invasive and invasive technologies for conveying artificial sensory feedback through bionic hands. ...

Converse for Multi-Server Single-Message PIR with Side Information

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Su Li

Multi-server single-message private information retrieval is studied in the presence of side information. In this problem, K independent messages are replicatively stored at N non-colluding servers. The user wants to privately download one message from the ...

Removing imaging systematics from galaxy clustering measurements with Obiwan: application to the SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey emission-line galaxy sample

Cheng Zhao, Anand Stéphane Raichoor

This work presents the application of a new tool, Obiwan, which uses image simulations to determine the selection function of a galaxy redshift survey and calculate three-dimensional (3D) clustering statistics. Obiwan relies on a forward model of the proce ...

Measurement-system design for structural identification

Numa Joy Bertola

In developed countries, the management of existing civil infrastructure is challenging due to evolving functional requirements, aging and climate change. Due to conservative approaches in construction design and practice, infrastructure often has hidden re ...

Converging intracortical signatures of two separated processing timescales in human early auditory cortex

Fabiano Baroni

Neural oscillations in auditory cortex are argued to support parsing and representing speech constituents at their corresponding temporal scales. Yet, how incoming sensory information interacts with ongoing spontaneous brain activity, what features of the ...
