Rhotic variation and contrast in veracruz Mexican Spanish
Estudios de Fonética Experimental, 2012 Phonetic studies of Spanish rhotics report a wide range of allophonic variants of the syllable-initial trill /r/, which raises the question of whether the intervocalic contrast between /r/ and the tap /ɾ/ has been neutralized in many dialects. This

Contextual and Variational Contrast Enhancement [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2011 This paper proposes an algorithm that enhances the contrast of an input image using interpixel contextual information. The algorithm uses a 2-D histogram of the input image constructed using a mutual relationship between each pixel and its neighboring pixels.

Contrast implementation affects phonetic variability: A case study of Hindi and English stops
Laboratory Phonology, 2021 There is a large body of work in phonetics and phonology demonstrating sources and structure of acoustic variability, showing that variability in speech production is not random.

Generative Oversampling with a Contrastive Variational Autoencoder [PDF]
2019 IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM), 2019 Although oversampling methods are widely used to deal with class imbalance problems, most only utilize observed samples in the minority class and ignore the rich information available in the majority class. In this work, we use an oversampling method that leverages information in both the majority and minority classes to mitigate the class imbalance ...

Natural variation in female reproductive hormones does not affect contrast sensitivity [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Evidence suggests that females experience adaptive shifts in facial preferences across the menstrual cycle. However, recent discussions and meta-analyses suggest that these findings are equivocal.
