#FA2023

Yesterday Géraldine Carranante presented our ongoing project to the #fa2023 conference. In short, we apply #ReverseCorrelation to the #auditory modality to uncover the #acoustic cues used during #SpeechPerception.

First talk from our group at #fa2023: Alejandro Osses presented our work on tone-in-noise detection and auditory models, and the freely available #OpenSource #MATLAB toolbox for running revcorr experiments.

Yesterday I was visiting the museum of cinema in #Torino. I was amazed to discover that Camille Flammarion was using the magic lantern during his scientific conferences:

"In 1866 I started using limelight projection devices in my astronomy lectures: their bright images were an effective complement every to illustrate astronomic principles... We started by projecting the 30 images from my publication The Wonders of the Heavens which were the entire content of my illustrated conferences."

... the first PowerPoint presentation in human history!

Anybody here going to Forum Acusticum #FA2023 in Torino next week? My team will be there in force with 3 oral presentations:
- 12 September (11:40 - 12:00): Alejandro Osses "Using auditory models to mimic human listeners in reverse correlation experiments from the fastACI toolbox" (https://hal.science/hal-04186363/document)
- 13 September (17:20 - 17:40): Laurianne Cabrera "Development of Auditory Sensitivity to Amplitude Modulation Cues: Sensory and Cognitive Determinants and Relationship With Speech Intelligibility"
- 14 September (11:00 - 11:20): Géraldine Carranante "Auditory Reverse Correlation applied to the study of place and voicing: four new phoneme-discrimination tasks" (https://hal.science/hal-04130939v1/document)

In this conference paper for #ForumAcousticum #FA2023 we replicate Ahumada's seminal experiment from 1975 on tone-in-noise perception using our own #OpenSource fastACI toolbox (https://github.com/aosses-tue/fastACI), and we analyze the data obtained by an artificial listener from the (also #OpenSource) Auditory Modeling Toolbox on the task. It's very satisfactory to have a network of interconnected toolboxes working together... And of course all analyses can be reproduced easily using the commands listed in the article. You can even run the experiment on yourself to replicate Ahumada's original results! #replication #OpenCode #Auditory #Psychoacoustics

Exciting news! Our conference paper titled "Auditory reverse correlation applied to the study of place and voicing: four new phoneme-discrimination tasks" has been accepted for presentation at #ForumAcusticum2023 #FA2023! This is the foundation stone for a bigger study to be published next year, and also a summary of our overall scientific aim in the team.
