In general, acoustic channels are not Gaussian distributed neither are second-order stationary. Considering them for signal processing methods designed for Gaussian assumptions is inadequate, consequently yielding in poor performance of such methods. This paper presents an analysis for audio signal corrupted by impulsive noise using non-Gaussian models. Audio samples are compared to the Gaussian, α -stable and Gaussian mixture models, evaluating the fitting by graphical and numerical methods. We discuss fitting properties as the window length and the overlap, finally concluding that the α -stable model has the best fit for all tested scenarios.

In control system design, managing measurement noise is a critical challenge, requiring a balance between responsiveness and noise suppression. Traditional methods often involve trade-offs, compromising either aspect. This paper proposes a novel solution by integrating a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter within the discrete controller transfer function, coupled with disturbance rejection through the Internal Model Principle (IMP).

Recent studies have proposed that visual information in working memory (WM) can be maintained in an activity-silent state and reactivated by task-irrelevant high-contrast visual impulses ("ping"). Although pinging the brain has become a popular tool for exploring activity-silent WM, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In the current study, we directly compared the neural reactivation effects and behavioral consequences of spatial-nonmatching and spatial-matching pings to distinguish the noise-reduction and target-interaction hypotheses of pinging the brain.

During acquisition and reconstruction, medical images may become noisy and lose diagnostic quality. In the case of CT scans, obtaining less noisy images results in a higher radiation dose being administered to the patient. Filtering techniques can be utilized to reduce radiation without losing diagnosis capabilities.

Dual-impulse behaviors of rolling bearings have been widely researched for quantitative diagnosis. However, it is challenging to accurately extract entry and exit moments of the fault from noise-contaminated raw signals. To address this issue, a novel quantitative diagnosis method based on digital twin model is proposed to assess the fault severity from the original signal waveform.

Objective: This study aimed to develop and evaluate a novel software tool for robust analysis of the Visually Enhanced Vestibular-Ocular Reflex (VVOR) and video head impulse test (vHIT) saccades.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 94 patients with Meniere's Disease (MD), unilateral vestibular hypofunction (UVH), and vestibular migraine (VM). The MATLAB-based VVOR Analysis System and Saccades All in One software were utilized for data processing.
