Focus perception in Japanese: Effects of lexical accent and focus location.
PLoS ONE, 2022 This study explored the contexts in which native Japanese listeners have difficulty identifying prosodic focus. Using a 4AFC identification task, we compared native Japanese listeners' focus identification accuracy in different lexical accent × focus ...

Analysis of Intonation: the Case of MAE_ToBI
Laboratory Phonology, 2016 Annotation systems for intonation contours are ideally based on a well-motivated phonological analysis of the language in question, such that instances of indecision are restricted to uncertainties over what intonational structure the speaker has used ...

How experience with tone in the native language affects the L2 acquisition of pitch accents
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 This paper tested the ability of Mandarin learners of German, whose native language has lexical tone, to imitate pitch accent contrasts in German, an intonation language.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This perspective reframes additive manufacturing for electrical machines as a qualification‐limited materials and architecture design problem. It links process–structure–property–performance relationships to magnetic, conducting, dielectric, and thermal property windows, highlighting where AM can enable segmented magnetic circuits, permanent magnet ...

An Edible Chitosan‐Based Acoustic Sensor for Sound‐Responsive Actuation in Edible Robots
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces an edible acoustic sensor for robotic food and edible robotics. Built from a chitosan piezoelectric film between gold electrodes, the sensor enables acoustic communication through ON/OFF keying. Integrated into an edible robot with pneumatically actuated arms and neck, it responds to high‐frequency tones.

Perception of the acoustic properties of Serbian lexical pitch accents
Estudios de Fonética ExperimentalIn this study, we explored to what extent native speakers of Serbian are perceptually sensitive to the acoustic properties of Serbian lexical pitch accents—namely pitch and length—and how accurately they distinguish between different lexical pitch ...
