Sensory Substitution (SenSub) is an approach that allows perceiving environmental information that is normally received via one sense (e.g., vision) via another sense (e.g., touch or audition). A typical SenSub system includes three major components: (a) a sensor that senses information typically received by the substituted modality (e.g., visual), (b) a coupling system that can process the sen...

This book offers a paradigmatic view of how it is possible to ground linguistic research on, and constrain linguistic theory by, neuroscientific evidence. The main aim of Pulvermüller’s book is to present the putative neurobiological basis of language, that is, how language is organized in the human brain: using the author’s own words, “to spell out language in the language of neurons” (Pulverm...

We introduce the notion of symmetric multimodality for dialogue systems in which all input modes (eg. speech, gesture, facial expression) are also available for output, and vice versa. A dialogue system with symmetric multimodality must not only understand and represent the user's multimodal input, but also its own multimodal output. We present the SmartKom system, that provides full symmetric ...

with regard to the relationship between the use of modality and readability levels oftexts, 2 opposing views have been raised. the first view endorses direct positiverelationship between modality and readability in the sense that the use of modalityincreases textual understandability. the second view is that the use of modality leadsto an increase in the number of words, resulting in readabilit...

Radiomics aims to extract and analyze large numbers of quantitative features from medical images and is highly promising in staging, diagnosing, and predicting outcomes of cancer treatments. Nevertheless, several challenges need to be addressed to construct an optimal radiomics predictive model. First, the predictive performance of the model may be reduced w hen features extracted from an indiv...

Multimedia technology is increasingly being used as an alternative way of delivering instruction. According to researchers, the success of multimedia is due to the dualcoding aspect of the information processing theory. In applying dual-coding principles, different information has to be coded in different media in order for people to learn effectively. Designers of interactive multimedia applic...

The High-Resolution Transformer (HRFormer) can maintain high-resolution representation and share global receptive fields. It is friendly towards salient object detection (SOD) in which the input output have same resolution. However, two critical problems need to be solved for two-modality SOD. One problem fusion. other HRFormer output's To address first problem, a supplementary modality injecte...
