Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders, affecting almost 1% of the population worldwide. The categorization of seizures is usually made based on the seizure onset zone (area of the brain where the seizure initiates) the progression of the seizure and the awareness status of the patient that experience the seizure. Focal onset seizures are the most common type of seizures in adults with epilepsy.

The papers in this special section focus on self-supervised learning for speech and audio processing. A current trend in the machine learning community is the adoption of self-supervised approaches to pretrain deep networks. Self-supervised learning utilizes proxy-supervised learning tasks (or pretext tasks) - for example, distinguishing parts of the input signal from distractors or reconstructing masked input segments conditioned on unmasked segments—to obtain training data from unlabeled corpora.

Although supervised deep learning has revolutionized speech and audio processing, it has necessitated the building of specialist models for individual tasks and application scenarios. It is likewise difficult to apply this to dialects and languages for which only limited labeled data is available. Self-supervised representation learning methods promise a single universal model that would benefit a wide variety of tasks and domains.

Speech self-supervised learning has attracted much attention due to its promising performance in multiple downstream tasks, and has become a new growth engine for speech recognition in low-resource languages. In this paper, we exploit and analyze a series of wav2vec pre-trained models for speech recognition in 15 low-resource languages in the OpenASR21 Challenge.

Recently, self-supervised learning (SSL) from unlabelled speech data has gained increased attention in the automatic speech recognition (ASR) community. Typical SSL methods include autoregressive predictive coding (APC), Wav2vec2.0, and hidden unit BERT (HuBERT). However, SSL models are biased to the pretraining data. When SSL models are finetuned with data from another domain, domain shifting occurs and might cause limited knowledge transfer for downstream tasks.

Mask-based lensless cameras offer a novel design for imaging systems by replacing the lens in a conventional camera with a layer of coded mask. Each pixel of the lensless camera encodes the information of the entire 3D scene. Existing methods for 3D reconstruction from lensless measurements suffer from poor spatial and depth resolution.

The algorithms based on the technique of optimal k -thresholding (OT) were recently proposed for signal recovery, and they are very different from the traditional family of hard thresholding methods. However, the computational cost for OT-based algorithms remains high at the current stage of their development. This stimulates the development of the so-called natural thresholding (NT) algorithm and its variants in this paper. The family of NT algorithms is developed through the first-order approximation of the so-called regularized optimal k -thresholding model, and thus the computational cost for this family of algorithms is significantly lower than that of the OT-based algorithms.
