In autism, severe abnormalities in social behavior coexist with aberrant attention and deficient language. In the attentional domain, attention to people and socially relevant stimuli is impaired the most. Because socially meaningful stimulus events are physically complex, a deficiency in sensory processing of complex stimuli has been suggested to contribute to aberrant attention and language i...

We address the problem of generating smooth, spatialized sound for interactive multimedia applications, such as VoIPenabled virtual environments and video games. Such applications have moving sound sources as well as moving receiver (MS-MR). As a receiver moves, it receives sound emitted from prior positions of a given source. We present an efficient algorithm that can correctly model auralizat...

| We present a real time DSP implementation of a novel binaural sound synthesis system designed for natural and realistic sound reproduction by means of headphones. The application area is multi media and virtual reality. The processing system is designed such that a sound source can be simulated on several spatial positions around the listener. Also moving sources and binaural reverberation ar...

For diagnosis of lung disease, lung sound auscultation plays an important role. Lung sound provides important information regarding underlying condition of lungs. Advances in the field of signal processing have led to development of automated tools for diagnosis of respiratory diseases using lung sound. This paper investigates the previous work undertaken by various researchers on automated res...

Semantic dementia (SD) is a unique neurodegenerative syndrome accompanied by relatively selective loss of the meaning of objects and concepts. The brain mechanisms that underpin the syndrome have not been defined: a better understanding of these mechanisms would inform our understanding of both the organisation of the human semantic system and its vulnerability to neurodegenerative disease. In ...
