Detection of osteoporosis from percussion responses using an electronic stethoscope and machine learning (2018)
Journal Article
Scanlan, J., Li, F., Umnova, O., Rakoczy, G., Lövey, N., & Scanlan, P. (2018). Detection of osteoporosis from percussion responses using an electronic stethoscope and machine learning. Bioengineering, 5(4), 107. https://doi.org/10.3390/bioengineering5040107

Osteoporosis is an asymptomatic bone condition that affects a large proportion of the elderly population around the world, resulting in increased bone fragility and increased risk of fracture. Previous studies had shown that the vibroacoustic respons... Read More about Detection of osteoporosis from percussion responses using an electronic stethoscope and machine learning.

Machine learning and DSP algorithms for screening of possible osteoporosis using electronic stethoscopes (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Scanlan, J., Li, F., Umnova, O., Rakoczy, G., & Lövey, N. (2018, October). Machine learning and DSP algorithms for screening of possible osteoporosis using electronic stethoscopes. Presented at 3rd International Conference on Biomedical Imaging, Signal Processing (ICBSP 2018), Polytechnic University of Bari, Italy

Osteoporosis is a prevalent but asymptomatic condition that affects a large population of the elderly, resulting in a high risk of fracture. Several methods have been developed and are available in general hospitals to indirectly assess the bone qual...

Robust speaker recognition in reverberant condition : toward greater biometric security (2018)
Thesis
Al-Karawi, K. (in press). Robust speaker recognition in reverberant condition : toward greater biometric security. (Thesis). University of Salford

Automatic speaker recognition systems have developed into an increasingly relevant technology for security applications in modern times. The primary challenge for automatic speaker recognition is to deal with the variability of the environments and c...

Mitigating wind induced noise in outdoor microphone signals using a singular spectral subspace method (2018)
Journal Article
Eldwaik, O., & Li, F. (2018). Mitigating wind induced noise in outdoor microphone signals using a singular spectral subspace method. Technologies, 6(1), https://doi.org/10.3390/technologies6010019

Wind induced noise is one of the major concerns of outdoor acoustic signal acquisition. It affects many field measurement and audio recording scenarios. Filtering such noise is known to be difficult due to its broadband and time varying nature. In t...
