Speech intelligibility and quality: a comparative study of speech enhancement algorithms.
(IEEE, 2017-07)Mobile devices are widely used today for speech communication. The environments in which these devices are used are widely varied and often the level of background noise in the speaker's environment can be significant. The ... -
Continuous affect prediction using eye gaze and speech.
(IEEE, 2017-12)Affective computing research traditionally focused on labeling a person's emotion as one of a discrete number of classes e.g. happy or sad. In recent times, more attention has been given to continuous affect prediction ... -
A QoE assessment method based on EDA, heart rate and EEG of a virtual reality assistive technology system.
(ACM, 2018)The1 key aim of various assistive technology (AT) systems is to augment an individual’s functioning whilst supporting an enhanced quality of life (QoL). In recent times, we have seen the emergence of Virtual Reality (VR) ... -
Ability levels, implicit theories of intelligence, cognitive load, and fluid intelligence: an exploration into the correlation between spatial ability and STEM education.
(ResearchED, 2018-03-10)Decades of empirical evidence demonstrates the correlation between spatial ability and STEM education. However, a causal relationship is yet to be confirmed. This talk will present empirical data concerning this relationship ... -
The self-generating model: an adaptation of the self-organizing map for intellgent agents and data mining.
