Spectrotemporal Modulation: Efficient and Interpretable Feature Representation for Classifying Speech, Music, and Environmental Sounds
Audio DNNs have demonstrated impressive performance on various machine listening tasks; however, most of their representations are computationally costly and uninterpretable, leaving room for optimiza...

why DO babies dance? when do they start dancing? what counts as dancing, anyway (and how can we measure it)? out online today in CDPS, @lkcirelli.bsky.social and i attempt to integrate what is known about the development of dance journals.sagepub.com/doi/epub/10.... (2/4)

Visual adaptation stronger at horizontal than vertical meridian: Linking performance with V1 cortical surface area
Visual adaptation, a mechanism that conserves bioenergetic resources by reducing energy expenditure on repetitive stimuli, leads to decreased sensitivity for similar features (e.g., orientation and sp...

@interspeech.bsky.social just changed its rebuttal period to April 4-11, which overlaps with #ICASSP. Given the overlap in research communities, I believe many researchers who submitted to #Interspeech2025 will also be attending #ICASSP2025. Could it be at least a week later?
