Modulation informational masking
… in the context of auditory informational masking (IM) were adapted and applied to the study of AM-rate uncertainty for the first time, yielding insights into what we will call IM in the AM domain, or "modulation IM." Taken together, the results shed new light on how uncertainty in general, …

Self-identity insecurity in autistic masking
… of challenged self-identity and the role of masking experienced by those with autism we conducted two thematic analyses, one using data scraped from the social media platform Reddit and the other gathered through traditional interviews. These data sets were analysed using reflexive thematic …

Memory leak Masking Using Dual Heap Organization
The dual heap virtual implementation provided a new base for memory organization such that the heap storage can be virtually enlarged to include the extremely large disk space. Two simulation models were used to investigate aging in physical space as well as the dual heap implementation. The …

Cynicism and narcissism: masking the good life?
<p>"Gratitude is a virtue capable of conferring a constellation of benefits. Research on gratitude has mostly focused on these benefits, but in understanding the construct fully an examination of moderating factors and inhibitors is important. A recent study, utilizing a prospective design, …

Factors affecting target perceptibility in object substitution masking
Object substitution masking (OSM) refers to the observation that reporting of a briefly presented target item is considerably reduced when a mask remains visible after the target offset. The size of OSM has been said to be critically dependent on the speed with which attention is deployed towards …

Negative masking and the units problem in audition
… stimulus is forced by the phenomenon of negative masking, which is manifest when the stimulus is expressed in terms of pressure. Selecting among the various quantities is complicated by the fact that the four measures are linearly related and constitute a direct transformation of one another. In …

Software and Hardware Techniques for Masking Security Vulnerabilities
Security problems in computer systems are caused by a variety of design deficiencies, implementation defects and, as this thesis shows, by transient errors. The thesis first studies real world security vulnerabilities via an analysis of available security data and experimentation. Results of the …

Removing redundancy in speech by modeling forward masking
… to extract those primary cues. However, speech masking, especially forward masking, should be considered and modeled when we extract the primary cues. In this thesis, we propose a forward masking model and integrate it into the AI-gram. The forward masking model consists of an RC feedback loop, …

Encoding a Hidden Digital Signature Using Psychoacoustic Masking
The Interactive Video Data System (IVDS) project began with an initial abstract concept of achieving interactive television by transmitting hidden digital information in the audio of commercials. Over the course of three years such a communication method was successfully developed, the hardware …

The Effect of Masking on the Acoustic Reflex Threshold
<p>This study investigated the effect of masking noise on the threshold for stapedial reflex. It has been shown that masking which shifts the hearing threshold causes a loudness function typical of recruitment. It was hypothesized that the stapedial reflex threshold remains the same in a masked …

A Statistical Approach to Visual Masking and Spatial Attention
… of each other, a phenomenon called visual masking. Visual masking has been extensively studied to understand the dynamics of information processing in the visual system. Visual spatial attention is also known to modulate information processing and transfer within the visual system. Since …

The Price Of “Normal”: Masking In The Autistic Community
… hashtag, #ActuallyAutistic, to understand masking and camouflaging from the autistic point of view. A qualitative descriptive approach was used to perform this analysis. The themes found emphasize the need for professionals to increase their understanding of the Autistic community’s value …

Contralateral cueing effects on information processing during backward masking
… cueing information in reducing monotic backward masking in the presence of a second, continuous masking noise. It was hypothesized that any facilitatory effects of the cue on detection performance would depend on the degree to which the specific types of cueing information were associated with …

Hiding me to be like you: exploring ADHD masking
… the lived experiences of ADHD people, and ADHD masking. ADHD is often stigmatised, which can result in people masking their behaviours to fit social expectations. This masking, in some cases, can result in misdiagnosis or even a missed diagnosis. ADHD masking has incredibly limited research …
