Sound speed, microphone positions, and tube wall dissipation are critical parameters for absorption and impedance measurements using the transfer-function method in an impedance tube. This work applies a Bayesian method, based on a reflection coefficient model of an air layer and a boundary layer dissipation model, to estimate the values of these parameters for tube measurements. This estimation is based on experimental measurements obtained in the empty impedance tube with a rigid termination. Analysis results demonstrate that this method is able to accurately estimate the dissipation coefficient, the sound speed, and the microphone positions for highly accurate tube measurements.

Auditory processing in the cerebral cortex is considered to begin with thalamocortical inputs to layer 4 (L4) of the primary auditory cortex (A1). In this canonical model, A1 L4 inputs initiate a hierarchical cascade, with higher-order cortices receiving pre-processed information for the slower integration of complex sounds. Here, we identify alternative ascending pathways in mice that bypass A1 and directly reach multiple layers of the secondary auditory cortex (A2), indicating parallel activation of these areas alongside sequential information processing.

The present experiment used the Serial Reaction Time Task(SRTT) to investigate if auditory cueing or feedback in the form of spatially compatible tones benefited sequence learning similarly. Fifty-three neurotypical adults (18-35 years; 32 cis-females; 21 cis-males) were randomly assigned to three groups in which they practiced a visual SRTT: Group AC was supplemented with auditory cues; group AF received auditory feedback; group NS performed without sound. Retention and transfer tests (i.

The shear wave speed is often small compared to the compressional wave speed in the top part of the seabed, where acoustic normal modes penetrate. In sediments with weak but finite shear rigidity, the strongest conversion from compressional to shear waves occurs at interfaces within the sediment. Shear wave generation at such interfaces and interference within sediment layers lead to first-order perturbations in the normal mode phase speed and contributions to sound attenuation, which vary rapidly with frequency.

Background: Renal fibrosis is strongly correlated with renal functional outcomes. Therefore, this is a significant finding in determining renal prognosis. There are various reports on the imaging evaluation of renal fibrosis, but these are not well established.

When listening to speech under adverse conditions, listeners compensate using neurocognitive resources. A clinically relevant form of adverse listening is listening through a cochlear implant (CI), which provides a spectrally degraded signal. CI listening is often simulated through noise-vocoding.
