In this Journal Club webinar, Onn Wah Lee presents his recent publication on the use of heart rate information extracted from functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) data to measure speech discrimination ability in sleeping infants.
Onn Wah Lee is a PhD student who conducted his study at the Bionics Institute and the University of Melbourne in Australia under the supervision of Prof. Colette McKay and Dr. Julia Wunderlich.
The study recorded fNIRS data from a sample of 23 infants aged between 2 and 10 months old and introduced a novel technique for extracting heart rate information from fNIRS data.
The key findings of this research suggest that the heart rate response is modulated by the habituation/dishabituation test paradigm, and it adapts significantly over the session duration.
