  2. Sound recognition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_recognition

    Sound recognition is a technology, which is based on both traditional pattern recognition theories and audio signal analysis methods. Sound recognition technologies contain preliminary data processing, feature extraction and classification algorithms. Sound recognition can classify feature vectors.

  3. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...

  4. Neural encoding of sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_encoding_of_sound

    The neural encoding of sound is the representation of auditory sensation and perception in the nervous system. [1] The complexities of contemporary neuroscience are continually redefined. Thus what is known of the auditory system has been continually changing.

  5. Absolute threshold of hearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_threshold_of_hearing

    It is approximately the quietest sound a young human with undamaged hearing can detect at 1 kHz. [4] The threshold of hearing is frequency -dependent and it has been shown that the ear's sensitivity is best at frequencies between 2 kHz and 5 kHz, [ 5 ] where the threshold reaches as low as −9 dB SPL.

  6. Audio forensics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_forensics

    For example in the case of a speech recording this means preparing a transcription of the audio content, identifying the talkers, interpreting the background sounds, and so on. [ 15 ] In 2009, the US National Academy of Sciences (NAS) published a report entitled Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward. [ 17 ]

  7. Comparison of analog and digital recording - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_analog_and...

    The dynamic range of an audio system is a measure of the difference between the smallest and largest amplitude values that can be represented in a medium. Digital and analog differ in both the methods of transfer and storage, as well as the behavior exhibited by the systems due to these methods.

  8. Temporal envelope and fine structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_envelope_and_fine...

    Examples of sinusoidally amplitude- and frequency-modulated signals. The neural representation of stimulus envelope, ENV n, has typically been studied using well-controlled ENV p modulations, that is sinusoidally amplitude-modulated (AM) sounds. Cochlear filtering limits the range of AM rates encoded in individual auditory-nerve fibers. In the ...

  9. Acoustic homing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_homing

    Source of sound: An object that emits acoustic signals such as a beacon [8] or transmitter generates sound waves. The sound waves propagate through the surrounding medium, such as air or water. Receiver: A device or system is equipped with acoustic receivers such as microphones or hydrophones designed to detect acoustic signals in the environment.
