Abstract: A plurality of pixel-based sampling points are identified within an image, wherein sampling points of a pixel are distributed within the pixel. For individual sampling points of individual pixels, a corresponding radiance vector is estimated. A radiance vector includes one or more radiance values characterizing light received at a sampling point. A first machine learning module generates, for each pixel, a corresponding intermediate radiance feature vector, based on the radiance vectors associated with the sampling points within that pixel. A second machine learning module generates, for each pixel, a corresponding final radiance feature vector, based on an intermediate radiance feature vector for that pixel, and one or more other intermediate radiance feature vectors for one or more other pixels neighboring that pixel. One or more kernels are generated, based on the final radiance feature vectors, and applied to corresponding pixels of the image, to generate a lower noise image.

Abstract: A system and method for the evaluation of hearing implant signal processing is described. A cochlear implant signal processor converts a speech signal input into multi-channel stimulation pulse sequences for a cochlear implant electrode array. A temporal feature processing module extracts temporal feature information from the stimulation pulse sequences. A speech recognition engine evaluates the temporal information using automatic speech recognition to produce speech recognition outputs corresponding to the speech signal input.
