Atypical perception of affective prosody in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is characterized by impairments in language and social–emotional cognition. Yet, findings of emotion recognition from affective prosody in individuals with ASD are inconsistent.

Hierarchical Prosody Modeling for Non-Autoregressive Speech Synthesis [PDF]
Prosody modeling is an essential component in modern text-to-speech (TTS) frameworks. By explicitly providing prosody features to the TTS model, the style of synthesized utterances can thus be controlled. However, predicting natural and reasonable prosody at inference time is challenging. In this work, we analyzed the behavior of non-autoregressive TTS

Prosody and the development of comprehension [PDF]
ABSTRACTFour studies are reported in which young children's response time to detect word targets was measured. Children under about six years of age did not show the response time advantage for accented target words which adult listeners show. When semantic focus of the target word was manipulated independently of accent, children of about five years ...

A two‐stage sorption mechanism is proposed for Al‐doped HMnO in direct lithium extraction. Batch sorption experiments and modeling identify two key sorption sites on Al‐HMnO: surface sites (planar and edge) and vacancy sites (W). At pH 12, Stage I involves surface ion exchange, followed by Stage II, where surface complexation occurs between Li⁺ ions ...

Considering the complications related to alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) such as seizure, delirium tremens and cardiac arrhythmia, it is important to identify the risk of delirium tremens (DT) following AWS and enhance preventive strategies. We observed the characteristics of quantitative electroencephalography in patients with AWS, specifically who ...

A unified one-shot prosody and speaker conversion system with self-supervised discrete speech units [PDF]
We present a unified system to realize one-shot voice conversion (VC) on the pitch, rhythm, and speaker attributes. Existing works generally ignore the correlation between prosody and language content, leading to the degradation of naturalness in converted speech. Additionally, the lack of proper language features prevents these systems from accurately

For most microscopy measurements the sample is placed on a substrate, which causes symmetry breaking, especially relevant for chiral plasmonic nanostructures. DNA origami mediated X‐shaped AuNR dimers showing high structural purity in solution, exhibit significant diversity in lineshapes and signal intensities for their circular differential scattering

Improving automated scoring of prosody in oral reading fluency using deep learning algorithm
Automated assessing prosody of oral reading fluency presents challenges due to the inherent difficulty of quantifying prosody. This study proposed and evaluated an approach focusing on specific prosodic features using a deep-learning neural network.
