Earthquake sensors on the ocean floor were built to track tectonic plates, but scientists just discovered they have been ...

The National Transportation Safety Board pulled the plug on its entire public docket system on May 21 after discovering that people on the internet had used AI to reconstruct cockpit voice recorder ...

Pilots’ voices from the last seconds of a fatal cargo plane crash have been re-created by Internet sleuths using software and AI tools. The spread of reconstructed audio recordings has prompted a US ...

With the use of autonomous recording units, or ARUs, scientists can listen to bird frequencies to understand their behaviors.

Abstract: In this work, we propose CleanMel, a single-channel Mel-spectrogram denoising and dereverberation network for improving both speech quality and automatic speech recognition (ASR) performance ...

Digging deeper into AI "voices" I previously tested all 30 voices provided by Gemini's TTS and categorized each voice based on impression axes such as "high/low pitch" and "feminine/masculine".

Do you tend to masseuse (er, misuse) words in humorous ways? If yes, you've made a malapropism—and everyone from politicians to famous literature characters is guilty of it. Have you ever uttered a ...

Simultaneous visual and passive acoustic surveys had been undertaken in Geographe Bay, Western Australia, over two seasons (November of 2011 and 2012) yielding spectrogram examples of five EIOPBW ...

(A) Recording apparatus. Four ultrasonic microphones sampled at 125 kHz continuously recorded a family in an enlarged environment. (B) Experiment timeline. Three gerbil families with the same family ...

Abstract: Acoustic features play an important role in improving the quality of the synthesised speech. Currently, the Mel spectrogram is a widely employed acoustic feature in most acoustic models.
