Quantum Activation Functions in Neural Networks: A Systematic Review of Approaches, Performance Impacts, and Practical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Quantum Technologies, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
This review explores how quantum activation functions can contribute to the evolution of neural networks toward quantum computing. The results show that classical‐quantum hybrid architectures are being tested in some practical applications, while fully quantum models are still in the development phase. These functions represent an important step toward

A Linear Memory CTC-Based Algorithm for Text-to-Voice Alignment of Very Long Audio Recordings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Synchronisation of a voice recording with the corresponding text is a common task in speech and music processing, and is used in many practical applications (automatic subtitling, audio indexing, etc.).

Probabilistic asr feature extraction applying context-sensitive connectionist temporal classification networks [PDF]

open access: yes2013 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing, 2013
This paper proposes a novel automatic speech recognition (ASR) front-end that unites the principles of bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BLSTM), Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC), and Bottleneck (BN) feature generation. BLSTM networks are known to produce better probabilistic ASR features than conventional multilayer perceptrons since ...

Material‐Based Intelligence: Autonomous Adaptation and Embodied Computation in Physical Substrates

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
This perspective formulates a unifying framework for Material‐Based Intelligence (MBI), defining the physical requirements for materials to achieve embodied action, active memory and embodied information processing through intrinsic nonequilibrium dynamics. The design of intelligent materials often draws parallels with the complex adaptive behaviors of

LSE-FS-UVigo Dataset and Keypoint-Based Fingerspelling Recognition

open access: yesIEEE Access
Continuous fingerspelling recognition remains a challenging task due to rapid hand and finger movements, coarticulation, and the limited availability of annotated data across sign languages. We introduce LSE-FS-UVigo, the first open dataset of continuous

Spoken term detection with Connectionist Temporal Classification: A novel hybrid CTC-DBN decoder [PDF]

open access: yes2010 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing, 2010
This paper proposes a novel system for robust keyword detection in continuous speech. Our decoder is composed of a bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory recurrent neural network using a Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC) output layer, and a Dynamic Bayesian Network (DBN).

Language machines: Toward a linguistic anthropology of large language models

open access: yesJournal of Linguistic Anthropology, Volume 36, Issue 1, May 2026.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) challenge long‐standing assumptions in linguistics and linguistic anthropology by generating human‐like language without relying on rule‐based structures. This introduction to the special issue Language Machines calls for renewed engagement with LLMs as socially embedded language technologies.

Tibetan Data Augmentation via GAN‐Based Handwritten Text Generation

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 55-65, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Increased awareness of Tibetan cultural preservation, along with technological advancements, has led to significant efforts in academic research on Tibetan. However, the structural complexity of the Tibetan language and limited labeled handwriting data impede advancements in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and other applications.

Which Words Are Special? Identification of “Sight” Words in Educational Resources

open access: yesReading Research Quarterly, Volume 61, Issue 1, January/February/March 2026.
We examined the overlap in words and properties in the contents of six commonly used word lists designed to support early word reading skills. The resources overlapped very little in their contents, including dramatic variation in terms of the properties of the words included in each.
