  • Masked pretraining of U-Net for ultrasound image segmentation

    Masked pretraining of U-Net for ultrasound image segmentation

    Settings

    In the experiments, the input grayscale ultrasound images have one single channel and are unified to \(256\times 256\). In both the pretraining and fine-tunning processes, the online data augmentation is conducted for each training batch…

  • The role of harmonicity on listeners’ ability to hear out voices in polyphonic music

    The role of harmonicity on listeners’ ability to hear out voices in polyphonic music

    This experiment investigated how well listeners can track vocal melodies in polyphonic music, focusing on the effects of harmonicity and the number of voices. Based on previous findings, we hypothesized that both harmonicity and the number of…
