Speech enhancement aims to make noisy speech signals clearer. Traditional time-frequency domain methods struggle to differentiate between speech and noise, leading to a risk of speech distortion. This paper introduces an approach that combines the time domain and time-frequency domain using the W-net module to suppress noise at the front end. The module is an improved version of Wave-U-Net, called TTF-W-Net. We conducted experiments using the TIMIT speech and NOISEX-92 noise datasets to evaluate the enhancement performance achieved by integrating preprocessing networks, specifically Wave-U-Net and our TTF-W-Net, into the baseline methods: Phase, FullSubNet+, and DB-AIAT. Experimental results show that TTF-W-Net outperforms the baseline Wave-U-Net by 15.7% on the PESQ metric and the effect of the network by using our preprocessing method is improved. Consequently, the TTF-W-Net preprocessing Net offers effective speech enhancement.

Background: Sleep disturbances have been shown to relate to the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and its associated cognitive deficits, including visual attention function. Here, we investigated the potential interactive and additive effects of sleep disruption and AD on visual attention performance and its underlying neural mechanisms.
Method: Preliminary analysis included 33 participants, 10 biomarker-positive patients on the AD spectrum (mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and AD; 7 females; M: 70.

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) disrupts normal brain tissue and functions, leading to high mortality and disability. Severe TBI (sTBI) causes prolonged cognitive, functional, and multi-organ dysfunction. Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) after sTBI can induce abnormalities in multiple organ systems, contributing to cardiovascular dysregulation and increased mortality.

Rail corrugation intensifies wheel-rail vibrations, often leading to damage in vehicle-track system components within affected sections. This paper proposes a novel method for identifying rail corrugation, which combines Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN), permutation entropy (PE), and Smoothed Pseudo Wigner-Ville Distribution (SPWVD). Initially, vertical acceleration data from the axle box are decomposed using CEEMDAN to extract intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) with distinct frequencies.

Structural damage identification based on structural health monitoring (SHM) data and machine learning (ML) is currently a rapidly developing research area in structural engineering. Traditional machine learning techniques rely heavily on feature extraction, where weak feature extraction can lead to suboptimal features and poor classification performance. In contrast, ML-based methods, particularly deep learning approaches like convolutional neural networks (CNNs), automatically extract relevant features from raw data, improving the accuracy and adaptability of the damage identification process.
