Localisation of multiple active speakers in natural environments with only two microphones is a challenging problem. Reverberation degrades the performance of speaker localisation based exclusively on directional cues. This paper presents an approach based on audio-visual fusion. The audio modality performs the multiple speaker localisation using the Skeleton method, energy weighting, and prece...

This study investigated nonspatial shifts of attention between visual and auditory modalities. The authors provide evidence that the modality of a stimulus (S1) affected the processing of a subsequent stimulus (S2) depending on whether they shared the same modality. For both vision and audition, the onset of S1 summoned attention exogenously to its modality, causing a delay in processing S2 in ...

In previous research we demonstrated that newly acquired associations between unrelated word pairs influence the magnitude of priming effects on word-completion tests. This phenomenon of implicit memory for new associations is observed only following semantic study elaboration. The present experiments reveal that implicit memory for new associations, though elaboration dependent, is also modali...

• Using the modality-shared and modality-invariant features for cross-modality Re-ID. Designing a new model to extract features. Introducing loss further decrease variations. Most existing person Re-IDentification works rely on discriminative reducing variations intra-modality Despite their preliminary success, such appearance cannot capture enough information due massive discrepancy between RG...

Strain differences in perception, cognition and affect have been found to interact with the effect of experimental treatments on learning. The present study tested Dark Agouti (DA) and Wistar rats in conditioning to discrete and contextual stimuli, for strain differences in conditioned emotional response (CER) and effects of stimulus modality. A Pavlovian trace-conditioning procedure was used i...

According to the dual-process model of recognition memory, recognition is based in part upon attributions about the relative ease of processing a stimulus. Ease of processing can be used as a heuristic for deciding whether an item is familiar. Experimental manipulations of processing fluency in a recognition task can cause a memory illusion by making an item seem more familiar. The memory illus...
