چکیده

Auditory signals are used for various purposes; e.g. signaling danger, warning of malfunction, notification of an incoming message, operational feedback, and indicating the beginning and end of an operation. These sounds should be designed to convey messages. Auditory signals are useful for people with normal senses and are essential for the blind. The universal design of auditory signals would make people easy to understand and memorize. To obtain basic data for the design of auditory signals, we determined the functionary imagery and onomatopoeic representation of auditory signals. We also determined the design specifications of auditory signals and announcements required by the blind in public spaces.

A basic study on universal design of auditory signals in automobiles.

In this paper, the impression of various kinds of auditory signals currently used in automobiles and a comprehensive evaluation were measured by a semantic differential method. The desirable acoustic characteristic was examined for each type of auditory signal. Sharp sounds with dominant high-frequency components were not suitable for auditory signals in automobiles. This trend is expedient for...

A Novel Method for Automated Estimation of Effective Parameters of Complex Auditory Brainstem Response: Adaptive Processing based on Correntropy Concept

Objectives: Automated Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR) peak detection is a novel technique to facilitate the measurement of neural synchrony along the auditory pathway through the brainstem. Analyzing the location of the peaks in these signals and the time interval between them may be utilized either for analyzing the hearing process or detecting peripheral and central lesions in the human he...

Using Eye Movement Analysis to Study Auditory Effects on Visual Memory Recall

Recent studies in affective computing are focused on sensing human cognitive context using biosignals. In this study, electrooculography (EOG) was utilized to investigate memory recall accessibility via eye movement patterns. 12 subjects were participated in our experiment wherein pictures from four categories were presented. Each category contained nine pictures of which three were presented t...

نوروپاتی شنوایی چیست؟

Auditory neuropathy is a disorder where the transmission of auditory signals from inner ear to the auditory nerve and auditory brainstem is distorted. Auditory neuropathy is not a homogenous disorder, rather, a collection of auditory abnormalities with distinctly different sites of dysfunction, diverse etiologies and causes, variations in patterns of auditory findings, and in most cases, corres...

Background: The main result of hearing impairment is reduction of speech perception. Patient with auditory neuropathy can hear but they can not understand. Their difficulties have been traced to timing related deficits, revealing the importance of the neural encoding of timing cues for understanding speech. Objective: In the present study psychoacoustic perception (minimal noticeable differen...
