A Corpus-Based, Pilot Study of Lexical Stress Variation in American English [PDF]

, 2010
Phonological free variation describes the phenomenon of there being more than one pronunciation for a word without any change in meaning (e.g. because, schedule, vehicle).

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Preferred Compression Speed for Speech and Music and Its Relationship to Sensitivity to Temporal Fine Structure

Trends in Hearing, 2016
Multichannel amplitude compression is widely used in hearing aids. The preferred compression speed varies across individuals. Moore (2008) suggested that reduced sensitivity to temporal fine structure (TFS) may be associated with preference for slow ...

Behavioral evidence for the role of cortical theta oscillations in determining auditory channel capacity for speech

Frontiers in Psychology, 2014
Studies on the intelligibility of time-compressed speech have shown flawless performance for moderate compression factors, a sharp deterioration for compression factors above three, and an improved performance as a result of repackaging – a process of ...

Using Automatic Speech Recognition to Optimize Hearing-Aid Time Constants

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Automatic speech recognition (ASR), when combined with hearing-aid (HA) and hearing-loss (HL) simulations, can predict aided speech-identification performances of persons with age-related hearing loss.

Frequency compression and its effects in speech recognition [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: frequency compression. AIM: to evaluate the index of speech recognition (IPRF) using frequency compression in three different ratios. Methods: monosyllabic words were recorded using an algorithm of frequency compression in three ratios: 1:1 ...

Analysis of Treacher Collins syndrome 4‐associated mutations in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Fission yeast models carrying Treacher Collins syndrome type 4‐associated mutations reveal that impaired processivity of RNA polymerase I leads to defective rRNA transcription. This study highlights the essential role of a conserved arginine residue in Pol I elongation and provides mechanistic insight into the pathogenesis of ribosomopathies.
