The selection of a target when training deep neural networks for speech enhancement is an important consideration. Different masks have been shown to exhibit different performance characteristics depending on the application and the conditions. This paper presents a comprehensive comparison of several different masks for noise reduction in cochlear implants.

It is self-evident that our chests expand and contract during breathing but, surprisingly, exactly how individual alveoli change shape over the respiratory cycle is still a matter of debate.

Article Synopsis
  • There is a lack of guidelines for antibiotic use in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia undergoing HoLEP, particularly for high-risk individuals who are catheter-dependent or have positive urine cultures.
  • A study was conducted analyzing the impact of preoperative antibiotic duration on infectious complications in these high-risk patients, involving a review of 407 cases from five institutions between 2018 and 2023.
  • Results showed that patients on a long course of antibiotics (>3 days) had significantly fewer infectious complications (1.9%) compared to those on a short course (≤3 days) at 7.6%, suggesting a longer duration may be beneficial in preventing infections.
