The Influence of Audio Information Manipulation on the Perceived Atmosphere in Telepresence Systems for Remote Work

open access: yesIEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
Remote work, which enables employees to work from home, has emerged as a prominent working style in recent years. However, unlike traditional office environments where the ‘atmosphere of the space’ is naturally shared, remote work relies on screen‐based communication, making it challenging to convey this atmosphere.

On playback delay in streaming communication [PDF]

open access: yes2012 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory Proceedings, 2012
We consider the problem of minimizing playback delay in streaming over a packet erasure channel with fixed bandwidth. When packets have to be played in order, the expected delay inherently grows with time. We analyze two cases, namely no feedback and instantaneous feedback.

Interactive Videos in Multimodal Listening Assessments: Examining Language Learners' Perspectives

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract The academic success of international students who speak English as a second language (L2) hinges on their ability to effectively communicate and comprehend information in English, which requires well‐developed listening skills. Given that real‐world listening mostly involves processing both auditory and visual information, incorporating ...

“Disciplinary Writing Is Like Playing with Legos”: Exploring a Multilingual International Student's Navigating Science Writing

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores the experiences of an undergraduate multilingual international student in becoming a science writer at a large public university. Taking the lenses of identity and investment, language socialization and multiliteracies, we address the question: How does a college‐aged multilingual science student navigate disciplinary ...

Maximizing the detection probabilities of dusky grouse for population monitoring

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Despite its status as a game species in the western USA, rigorous monitoring of dusky grouse Dendragapus obscurus populations is limited. Obtaining an adequate number of observations for effective population monitoring of dusky grouse is challenging due to difficult‐to‐reach montane habitats, cryptic behaviors, and limited personnel, time, and funds at

Assessing the utility of autonomous recording units and spring point counts for monitoring abundance of ruffed grouse Bonasa umbellus

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The ruffed grouse Bonasa umbellus is a species of conservation concern that has declined across most of its range. At the southeastern trailing edge of the range in Georgia, grouse are restricted to elevations 600 m a.s.l. and abundance is relatively low.
