A Probabilistic Approach to Quantifying DPOAE Detection

نویسنده

چکیده

A number of commercial distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) systems are available. Each system uses a slightly different signal processing approach . As a result, calculations commonly used to quantify the quality of collected DPOAE data (such as noise level and signal to noise ratio) differ across systems. In this report, the theory underlying DPOAE noise estimation is reviewed and a probabilistic approach to establishing local DPOAE norms is presented. Using this approach, a DPOAE detection criterion of 15 dB estimated signal-tonoise ratio was found to yield a false negative hearing screen outcome rate of .00053 and a false positive outcome rate identical to an established transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) based protocol . Reasons why detection criteria may vary across distortion product systems and literature reports are presented .

A Robust Strucutural Fingerprint Restoration

Fast and accurate ridge detection in fingerprints is essential to each AFIS (Automatic Fingerprint Identification System). Smudged furrows and cut ridges in the image of a finger print are major problems in any AFIS. This paper investigates a new online ridge detection method that reduces the complexity and costs associated with the fingerprint identification procedure. The noise in fingerprint...

Damage Detection of Bridge by Rayleigh-Ritz Method

As a result of environmental and accidental actions, damage occurs in structures. The early detection of any defect can be achieved by regular inspection and condition assessment. In this way, the safety and reliability of structures can be increased. This paper is devoted to propose a new and effective method for detecting, locating, and quantifying beam-like structures. This method is based o...

A COMMON FRAMEWORK FOR LATTICE-VALUED, PROBABILISTIC AND APPROACH UNIFORM (CONVERGENCE) SPACES

We develop a general framework for various lattice-valued, probabilistic and approach uniform convergence spaces. To this end, we use the concept of $s$-stratified $LM$-filter, where $L$ and $M$ are suitable frames. A stratified $LMN$-uniform convergence tower is then a family of structures indexed by a quantale $N$. For different choices of $L,M$ and $N$ we obtain the lattice-valued, probabili...
