Children With Bilateral Cochlear Implants Show Emerging Spatial Hearing of Stationary and Moving Sound Open
Spatial hearing in children with bilateral cochlear implants (BCIs) was assessed by: (a) comparing localization of stationary and moving sound, (b) investigating the relationship between sound localization and sensitivity to interaural lev…

Nemotron-H: A Family of Accurate and Efficient Hybrid Mamba-Transformer Models Open
As inference-time scaling becomes critical for enhanced reasoning capabilities, it is increasingly becoming important to build models that are efficient to infer. We introduce Nemotron-H, a family of 8B and 56B/47B hybrid Mamba-Transformer…

Evaluating the use of a balance prosthesis during balance perturbations in children and young adults with cochleovestibular dysfunction Open
Study objectives were to: (1) quantify stability in children and young adults using cochlear implants with concurrent cochleovestibular dysfunction (CI-V) during balance perturbations and (2) to assess effects of an auditory head-referenci…

Exposure to Spoken Communication in Children With Cochlear Implants During the COVID-19 Lockdown Open
The findings of this cohort study indicate a clear association of COVID-19 lockdowns with a reduction in children's access to spoken communication.

Investigation of light-induced lacrimation and pupillary responses in episodic migraine Open
The purpose of this pilot study was to investigate the light-induced pupillary and lacrimation responses mediated by intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) in migraine. Ten participants with episodic migraine and norm…

Binocular Summation in Postillumination Pupil Response Driven by Melanopsin-Containing Retinal Ganglion Cells Open
To investigate how melanopsin-mediated intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cell (ipRGC) signals are integrated binocularly using chromatic pupillometry. We hypothesized that if the melanopsin system is summative, there will be a …

A Novel Visual Psychometric Test for Light-Induced Discomfort Using Red and Blue Light Stimuli Under Binocular and Monocular Viewing Conditions Open
The light-induced discomfort characteristics reported here are consistent with features of the melanopsin-containing intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cell light irradiance pathway, which may mediate photophobia, a prominent fe…

Gain-increase saccadic adaptation is enhanced by the use of constant retinal error feedback Open
Introduction: Saccadic accuracy is maintained by sensorimotor adaptive mechanisms that continually adjust movement gains when faced with consistent errors. It is known that generally the saccadic system is resistant to increasing its gain.…

The Initiation of Smooth Pursuit is Delayed in Anisometropic Amblyopia Open
This study provides evidence of temporally delayed smooth pursuit initiation in anisometropic amblyopia. After initiation, the smooth pursuit velocity profile in anisometropic amblyopia participants is similar to visually normal controls. …
