TinyLSTMs reduces speech enhancement model size and latency for hearing aids.

problem Large RNNs limit practical deployment in hearing aid hardware.
method Model compression techniques (pruning, integer quantization, state update skipping) for RNN speech enhancement.
result Reduction in model size and operations by 11.9imes imes and 2.9imes imes, respectively, without perceptual degradation.

Hearing Aid (HA) algorithms need to be tuned ("fitted") to match the impairment of each specific patient. The lack of a fundamental HA fitting theory is a strong contributing factor to an unsatisfying sound experience for about 20% of hearing aid patients. This paper proposes a probabilistic modeling approach to the de…

Study predicts hearing recovery in MD patients using TEOAE signals.

problem Predicting hearing recovery in MD patients during acute episodes.
method Applied machine learning to TEOAE signals from MD patients, using SVM for classification.
result Baseline TEOAE parameters can predict hearing recovery in MD patients.

Standard deep learning systems require thousands or millions of examples to learn a concept, and cannot integrate new concepts easily. By contrast, humans have an incredible ability to do one-shot or few-shot learning. For instance, from just hearing a word used in a sentence, humans can infer a great deal about it, by…

CLCNet improves noise reduction in hearing aids with deep learning.

problem Noise reduction in hearing aids is challenging due to real-time and frequency resolution constraints.
method Proposes CLCNet, a deep learning framework based on complex linear coding.
result CLCNet outperforms traditional methods in noisy environments.

We use an extension of Sunada's theorem to construct a nonisometric pair of isospectral simply connected domains in the Euclidean plane, thus answering negatively Kac's question, ``can one hear the shape of a drum?'' In order to construct simply connected examples, we exploit the observation that an orbifold whose unde…

Which properties of an orbifold can we ``hear,'' i.e., which topological and geometric properties of an orbifold are determined by its Laplace spectrum? We consider this question for a class of four-dimensional Kähler orbifolds: weighted projective planes $M:=\C P^2(N_1,N_2,N_3)$ with three isolated singularities. We s…

Automatic segmentation of auditory ossicles from CT images using Ricci curvature.

problem Automatic diagnosis of ossicles' diseases from 3D CT images of the head.
method Proposes a completely automatic method that locates and segments ossicles without manual labels or templates, using Ricci curvature in an energy function.
result Performance of the proposed method using discrete Forman-Ricci curvature is superior to state-of-the-art methods.

To a compact hyperbolic Riemann surface, we associate a finitely summable spectral triple whose underlying topological space is the limit set of a corresponding Schottky group, and whose ``Riemannian'' aspect (Hilbert space and Dirac operator) encode the boundary action through its Patterson-Sullivan measure. We prove …

A `platycosm' is a flat Riemannian 3-manifold without boundary. In this paper we prove that there is (up to scale) a unique isospectral pair of compact platycosms.

Graph neural networks improve odor prediction from molecular structure.

problem Predicting odor from molecular structure is challenging and important.
method Used graph neural networks for QSOR modeling.
result Graph neural networks significantly outperform prior methods on a novel data set.

We give a number of examples of isospectral pairs of plane domains, and a particularly simple method of proving isospectrality. One of our examples is a pair of domains that are not only isospectral but homophonic: Each domain has a distinguished point such that corresponding normalized Dirichlet eigenfunctions take eq…

We answer Mark Kac's famous question, "can one hear the shape of a drum?" in the positive for orbifolds that are 3-dimensional and 4-dimensional lens spaces; we thus complete the answer to this question for orbifold lens spaces in all dimensions. We also show that the coefficients of the asymptotic expansion of the tra…

Take a torus with a Riemannian metric. Lift the metric on its universal cover. You get a distance which in turn yields balls. On these balls you can look at the Laplacian. Focus on the spectrum for the Dirichlet or Neumann problem. We describe the asymptotic behaviour of the eigenvalues as the radius of the balls goes …

In last years, we hear about halal products in non- Muslim societies including European and American ones. In France, for example, sales of halal products sold in stores during the year 2010, increased 23 % and represented 5.5 billion euros, including 1.1 billion for the fast food, and it has not stopped growing since.…

We answer Mark Kacs famous question - can one hear the shape of a drum - in the negative for orbifolds that are spherical space forms. This is done by extending the techniques developed by A. Ikeda on Lens Spaces to the orbifold setting. Several results are proved to show that with certain restrictions on the dimension…

We uniquely and explicitly reconstruct the instantaneous intrinsic metric of the Kerr-Newman Event Horizon from the spectrum of its Laplacian. In the process we find that the angular momentum parameter, radius, area; and in the uncharged case, mass, can be written in terms of these eigenvalues. In the uncharged case th…

Let M^{2n} be a symplectic toric manifold with a fixed T^n-action and with a toric Kähler metric g. Abreu asked whether the spectrum of the Laplace operator ΔgΔ_g on C(M)\mathcal{C}^\infty(M) determines the moment polytope of M, and hence by Delzant's theorem determines M up to symplectomorphism. We report on some progre…

In 1985 Kevin Walker in his study of topology of polygon spaces raised an interesting conjecture in the spirit of the well-known question "Can you hear the shape of a drum?" of Marc Kac. Roughly, Walker's conjecture asks if one can recover relative lengths of the bars of a linkage from intrinsic algebraic properties of…
