Many uses, many annotations for large speech corpora: Switchboard and TDT as case studies

open access: yes, 2000
This paper discusses the challenges that arise when large speech corpora receive an ever-broadening range of diverse and distinct annotations. Two case studies of this process are presented: the Switchboard Corpus of telephone conversations and the TDT2 ...

An Artificial Intelligence‐Based Computer Vision Model for Human Sperm Concentration, Motility, and Kinematics Analysis

open access: yesSmart Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 1, February 2026.
A computer‐vision method measures sperm concentration and motility from recorded videos, benchmarked and calibrated against manual tracking to ensure consistency. It can potentially support routine fertility assessments with high accuracy. ABSTRACT Accurate assessment of sperm concentration and motility is critical for the diagnosis and management of ...

Trends in the Use and Indications for Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection Between 2005 and 2017: A State‐Wide Descriptive Cohort Analysis

open access: yesAustralian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Volume 66, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) was first developed to overcome male factor infertility. ICSI has increased in uptake globally, including in cases where its use is non‐essential for fertilisation. Aims To identify temporal trends in the use of, and indications for ICSI in an Australian context.

Impact of varicocoelectomy on male semen parameters: A long‐term analysis of sperm quality and outcomes

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 352-357, February 2026.
Abstract Background Varicocoeles are common in 40% of men presenting with infertility. Semen parameters including sperm motility, low sperm count and sperm morphology are altered by the presence of varicocoeles. Though varicocoelectomy has been associated with improvements in these parameters, studies on long‐term outcomes are limited.

Comparative Evaluation of Follicular Flushing Frequency and Scraping Time During Ovum Pick‐Up in Mares: Effects on Oocyte Recovery Rate and Technical Considerations

open access: yesReproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Transvaginal ultrasound‐guided follicular aspiration or ovum pick‐up (OPU) has become the standard technique for oocyte collection in mares for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Although repeated follicular flushes and wall scraping are commonly used to improve oocyte recovery rate (ORR), the relative contribution of each remains ...

Fundamental frequency height as a resource for the management of overlap in talk-in-interaction. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Overlapping talk is common in talk-in-interaction. Much of the previous research on this topic agrees that speaker overlaps can be either turn competitive or noncompetitive. An investigation of the differences in prosodic design between these two classes
