A Speech-based and Auditory Ubiquitous Office Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article introduces how speech and non-speech audio can be used in ubiquitous computing office environments. We describe an iterative development of an augmented office environment that helps people in their everyday tasks in office settings. Architectural as well as interaction issues are covered in this paper. We discuss how we have addressed the problems of multimodal data fusion, concurrency and continuity, dynamic content generation and output control, distribution and modularity, which are key elements in building ubiquitous speech based systems.

Speech delay with an unknown cause is a problem among children. This diagnosis is the last differential diagnosis after observing normal findings in routine hearing tests. The present study was undertaken to determine whether auditory brainstem responses to click stimuli are different between normally developing children and children suffering from delayed speech with unknown causes. In this cr...

متن کاملAn Architecture for Presenting Auditory Awareness Information in Pervasive Computing Environments
In this paper we present how awareness can be supported in pervasive computing environments through auditory information. We introduce an application which uses soundscapes to support people’s awareness of each other’s presence in an office environment. We describe several techniques for construction and control of such soundscapes. Finally, we present an architecture for designing and controll...

Objective: This study was a basic investigation of the ability of concurrent speech segregation in hearing impaired children. Concurrent segregation is one of the fundamental components of auditory scene analysis and plays an important role in speech perception. In the present study, we compared auditory late responses or ALRs between hearing impaired and normal children. Materials & Methods...
