To address this, an open-source framework for deep learning in bioacoustics to automatically detect Bornean white-bearded gibbon (Hylobates albibarbis) \"great call\" vocalizations in a long-term acoustic dataset from a rainforest location in Borneo is adapted. The steps involved in developing this solution are described, including collecting audio recordings, developing training and testing datasets, training neural network models, and evaluating model performance. The best model performed at a satisfactory level (F score = 0.87), identifying 98% of the highest-quality calls from 90 h of manually annotated audio recordings and greatly reduced analysis times when compared to a human observer. No significant difference was found in the temporal distribution of great call detections between the manual annotations and the model's output. Future work should seek to apply this model to long-term acoustic datasets to understand spatiotemporal variations in H. albibarbis' calling activity. Overall, a roadmap is presented for applying deep learning to identify the vocalizations of species of interest, which can be adapted for monitoring other endangered vocalizing species.","PeriodicalId":17168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142154383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prior studies have used signal processing approaches that required assumptions about the source directivity or user intervention at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions. In this context, PCA, a matrix decomposition tool which identifies the most common features across an ensemble of observations, provides a data-driven (hands-off) approach to signal processing. For microphone array time series, particular attention is paid to the temporal alignment of the signals to facilitate PCA. A time domain approach is necessary when sources are impulsive and nonstationary. Two such signal arrangements are discussed in this work. Results from this method are in good agreement with theory, validated by prior results using an ensemble averaging approach requiring user support. Furthermore, the results of this method are improved when compared to the ensemble averaging approach without user intervention. A SNR limit is identified where PCA becomes less effective for the vortex/edge interaction problem. This SNR limit is intended to aid in the design of similar future experiments.","PeriodicalId":17168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142120135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 155, 1285-1296] analyzed the dependence of the reflection coefficient on the grazing angle in two-layer marine sediment model. The upper layer in his model consists of a fine-grained material (mud), while seawater and the basement below the mud layer are treated as homogeneous halfspaces. Buckingham's analyses revealed several narrow spikes in this dependence that appeared only in the presence of a sound velocity gradient in the mud layer, a phenomenon he called acoustic glint. His derivation was accomplished for certain specific dependencies of the sound velocity on the depth. Surprisingly, the authors appear to reach the conclusion that for a slightly different vertical sound speed profile in the mud layer the spikes are no longer present in the dependence of the reflection coefficient on the grazing angle. More precisely, the same problem is examined in this letter for the case of an n2-linear layer (often called Airy medium). Acoustic glint effect is therefore very sensitive to the exact parametrization of the mud layer.","PeriodicalId":17168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142126066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tones were presented at equal subjective loudness levels for each individual, corresponding to levels of 10, 20, and 30 dB SL measured at 1 kHz. Participants were categorized as either \"symptomatic\" or \"asymptomatic\" based on self-reported previous symptoms that they attributed to exposure to VHFS/US. In both groups, subjective loudness increased more rapidly with sound pressure level for VHFS/US than for the 1-kHz reference tone, which is consistent with a reduced dynamic range at the higher frequencies. For loudness-matched tones, participants rated VHFS/US as more unpleasant than that for the 1-kHz reference.

This study tested the hypothesis that individuals with sensorineural hearing loss, who show enhanced sensitivity to AM under certain conditions, would also show superior ITDENV sensitivity under those conditions. The second hypothesis was that variations in ITDENV sensitivity across individuals can be related to variations in sensitivity to AM. To enable a direct comparison, a standard adaptive AM detection task was used along with a modified version of it designed to measure ITDENV sensitivity. The stimulus was a 4-kHz tone modulated at rates of 32, 64, or 128 Hz and presented at a 30 dB sensation level. Both tasks were attempted by 16 listeners with normal hearing and 16 listeners with hearing loss. Consistent with the hypotheses, AM and ITDENV thresholds were correlated and tended to be better in listeners with hearing loss.

A thorough impact assessment of acoustic sources requires both accurate modeling of the source and radiated sound field, and a biological assessment. The Joint Industry Program Acoustic Modelling Workshop in 2022 provided a set of verification scenarios for a deep-water MBES to compare modelling approaches and assess agreement across models. This work presents several relevant models designed to compute both the MBES beam patterns and propagated acoustic field. Key acoustic metrics used in impact assessment were calculated and compared using these models. The work confirmed that geometrical acoustics is well suited to the unique radiation patterns of MBES. Ray-tracing programs are relevant as well at short ranges and at long horizontal distances in the presence of large sound speed gradients. The estimation of cumulative sound exposure along a survey track is most often dominated by exposure to the main transmit beam of each sector. Accurate modelling of the near field was demonstrated to have a direct impact on final acoustic metrics and threshold ranges for various marine mammal hearing groups.","PeriodicalId":17168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142133070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Global meteorological conditions are simulated using the chemistry-climate model EMAC with ECMWF reanalysis data. The results show that atmospheric conditions lead to a seasonal variation of the perceived level for a N-wave over 10 years of flights, whereas it is difficult to identify the seasonal variation for the low-boom aircraft because the distribution of perceived levels is widely spread. The dominant effect from atmospheric conditions during acoustic propagation is found for the low-boom aircraft cruising at an altitude of 14.478 km. The molecular relaxation effect is dominant for an overpressure reduction at 10 km but does not impact the pressure waveform below 8 km. At altitudes below 8 km, the thermoviscous absorption exclusively influences the variations in pressure rise time. Moreover, acoustic wave propagation through the turbulent field was simulated at a single location. Even though the acoustic wave passed through the same turbulent field in the summer and winter cases, the loudness on the ground differs between them.","PeriodicalId":17168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142133069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The SGA reflection loss from a half-space low-velocity bottom (LVB) is independent of the sound attenuation, except around the angle of complete transmission; the SGA bottom reflection loss (BRL) from a seafloor with a top low-velocity layer is very insensitive to the LVB attenuation also, except around a few selected frequencies. Thus, the \"seafloor velocity-attenuation coupling\" problem will be more fatal for LVB geo-acoustic inversions. The dispersion equation of the normal modes in the LVB layer is coincidentally the same as the singularity expression of the SGA reflection coefficient in the water column, resulting in a sound siphon effect that causes the abnormally high SGA BRL and transmission loss in the water at the siphon frequencies. The siphon effect is very sensitive to seafloor acoustic parameters, might offer a physical base for geo-acoustic inversion, and show a dim light in a \"gray area\" for inverting the LVB sound attenuation at low to mid frequencies. As an example, the acoustic siphon effect and related seafloor geophysical parameters forming it in the Yellow Sea are reported in this paper.","PeriodicalId":17168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142154386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The auditory preprocessing component effectively captures advanced physiological details of the auditory system, such as retrograde traveling waves, longitudinal coupling, and cochlear nonlinearity. The ability of the model to predict data from normal-hearing listeners under various additive noise conditions was considered. The predictions closely matched the experimental test data under all conditions. Furthermore, we developed a lumped mass model of a McGee stainless-steel piston with the middle-ear to study the recovery of individuals with otosclerosis. We show that the proposed SI model accurately simulates the effect of middle-ear intervention on SI. Consequently, the model establishes a model-based relationship between objective measures of human ear damage, like distortion product otoacoustic emissions, and speech perception. Moreover, the SI model can serve as a robust tool for optimizing parameters and for preoperative assessment of artificial stimuli, providing a valuable reference for clinical treatments of conductive hearing loss.","PeriodicalId":17168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142154387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
