Echo suppression in the horizontal and median sagittal planes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Experiments were performed to measure two kinds of suppression threshold for running speech: echo threshold, defined here as the minimum level at which it was possible to detect that an echo was present, and masked threshold, defined as the minimum level at which it was possible to detect that a lagging sound was present at all. Both thresholds were measured using a geometry in which sound sources and reflections were distributed over the horizontal plane ~left, front, and right locations! and a geometry in which they were distributed over the median sagittal plane ~front, overhead, and rear locations!. The predominant sound localization cues are different for these two geometries, and the experiments measured the consequences of this difference for suppression. Echo thresholds were found to have a comparable dependence on the delay of the lagging sound for the horizontal and median sagittal planes. Masked thresholds, which were systematically 8–15 dB lower than echo thresholds, also showed a comparable dependence on delay for the two planes. Overall, these results support the idea that echo suppression is functionally similar whether locations are cued by interaural differences in time and intensity, or by spectral features introduced by the head-related transfer function. © 2000 Acoustical Society of America. @S0001-4966~00!02202-5#

Comparison lower limb joints stiffness in chronic low back pain patients with healthy people while walking
Introduction: Lower back pain is an orthopedic disease that affects up to 80% of people throughout their lifetime. It seems that the pattern of muscular activity is related to the components of earthquake photography and should be considered when evaluating back pain and its treatment. The aim of this study was to compare the three-dimensional lower limb joints stiffness during loading response...

Backgroundm: Scapulohumeral rhythm (SHR) has been established as the kinematic hallmark indicating motion of the shoulder joint. Numerous studies have investigated the effect of different factors on SHR. The purpose of the present study was to determine the scapular upward rotation and scapulohumeral rhythm ratio among frontal, sagittal, and scapular planes in different humeral abduction ang...
متن کاملI-42: MRI Evaluation of Congenital Uterine Anomalies
Mullerian duct anomalies are an uncommon but often treatable cause of infertility. Patients with müllerian duct anomalies are known to have a higher incidence of infertility, repeated first-trimester spontaneous abortions, fetal intrauterine growth retardation, fetal malposition, preterm labor, and retained placenta. The role of imaging is to help detect, diagnose, and distinguish surgically co...
متن کاملReduction of Aliasing Artifacts in Diffusion-Weighted PROPELLER Imaging
Introduction Diffusion imaging is typically performed in axial planes. This is largely due to its reliance on single-shot echo-planar imaging (EPI) which suffers from increased image distortion in sagittal and coronal planes because of concomitant gradient fields [1-2], especially with strong gradients and/or at relatively low B0-fields (including 1.5T). Diffusion-weighted (DW) imaging in non-a...
