Synthesis of Environmental Sounds in Interactive Multimodal Systems

نویسنده

  • Federico Avanzini
چکیده

This review paper discusses the literature on perception and synthesis of environmental sounds. Relevant studies in ecological acoustics and multimodal perception are reviewed, and physicallybased sound synthesis techniques for various families of environmental sounds are compared. Current research directions an d open issues, including multimodal interfaces and virtal environments, automatic recognition and classification, and sound design, are discussed. The focus is especially on applications of physicallybased techniques for synthesis of environmental sounds in interactive multimodal systems. The paper reports on ongoing research on bimodal (audio-haptic) rendering of virtual objects. [

A novel framework for retrieval and interactive visualization of multimodal data

With the abundance of multimedia in web databases and the increasing user need for content of many modalities, such as images, sounds, etc., new methods for retrieval and visualization of multimodal media are required. In this paper, novel techniques for retrieval and visualization of multimodal data, i.e. documents consisting of many modalities, are proposed. A novel cross-modal retrieval fram...

A Critical Visual Analysis of Gender Representation of ELT Materials from a Multimodal Perspective

This content analysis study, employing a multimodal perspective and critical visual analysis, set out to analyze gender representations in Top Notch series, one of the highly used ELT textbooks in Iran. For this purpose, six images were selected from these series and analyzed in terms of ‘representational’, ‘interactive’ and ‘compositional’ modes of meanings. The result indicated that there are...

Exploring the sound-space of synthesis algorithms using interactive genetic algorithms

Exploring the sounds available from a synthesis algorithm is a complicated process, requiring the user either to spend much time gaining heuristic experience with the algorithm or requiring them to have a deep knowledge of the underlying synthesis algorithms. In this paper we describe a computer system which facilitates a more exploratory approach to sound design, allowing the user to work at t...

Capacitated Multimodal Structure of a Green Supply Chain Network Considering Multiple Objectives

In this paper, a supply chain network design problem is explained which contains environmental concerns in arcs and nodes of network. It is assumed that there are some routes such as road, rail and etc. in each pair of nodes. In this model decision variables are choosing facilities to open, environmental investment level in each facility and flow of products between nodes in each route. A multi...
