Probabilistic Noise Detection and Weighted Non-Negative Matrix Factorization-Based Noise Reduction Methods for Snapping Shrimp Noise by Suhyeon Park, Jongwon Seok, Jungpyo Hong

“…Snapping Shrimps Noise (SSN), loud sounds generated by these underwater creatures, serves as a major source of in performance degradation by decreasing the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) for underwater acoustic communication and target detection. Thus, we propose a unified solution for SSN detection and reduction in this paper. …”

Experiment on Mine Ground Pressure of Stiff Coal-Pillar Entry Retaining under the Activation Condition of Hard Roof by Wen-long Shen, Wen-bing Guo, Hua Nan, Chun Wang, Yi Tan, Fa-qiang Su

“…When the hard roof is situated in the activation state, the dynamic stress is generated from the hard roof activation, which is verified by the great saltation of acoustic emission signals. The results of mining ground pressure in the physical model can clearly illustrate the mechanical behavior of the rock around the retained entry with stiff coal pillar.…”

Longer respiratory events in childhood obstructive sleep apnea syndrome constitute a trait of older children with excessive daytime sleepiness by Plamen Bokov, Benjamin Dudoignon, Boris Matrot, Christophe Delclaux

“…We retrospectively selected 35 otherwise healthy children (median age: 10.6 years, 16 females) with moderate to severe OSA who had measurements of pharyngeal compliance (acoustic pharyngometry), loop gain (awake tidal ventilation with calculation of controller and plant gains), and respiratory system impedance (impulse oscillometry system). …”

She’s Such a Bitch! The Representation of Women as Bitches in Gender-Based Violence Campaigns by Irene López-Rodríguez

“…The project considers the linguistic, visual and acoustic representations of women as bitches given that several campaigns juxtapose photographs of battered women and real female dogs, characterize women as literal bitches by portraying them kneeling and with a leash around their necks held by a man and evoke the canine image through word play and onomatopoeia. …”
