A Scale for the Assessment of Hedonic Tone the Snaith–Hamilton Pleasure Scale

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1995
Background Hedonic tone and its absence, anhedonia, are important in psychopathological research, but instruments for their assessment are lengthy and probably culturally biased.

Measuring Qualitative Information in Capital Markets Research: Comparison of Alternative Methodologies to Measure Disclosure Tone

, 2016
: This study evaluates alternative measures of the tone of financial narrative. We present evidence that word-frequency tone measures based on domain-specific wordlists—compared to general wordlists—better predict the market reaction to earnings ...

American Journal of Sociology, 2016
Two related lines of research have gained traction in the social sciences during the past three decades. One examines the association between race and punishment, while a second investigates stratification and colorism, defined as discrimination based on

The effect of manager-specific optimism on the tone of earnings conference calls

Review of accounting studies, 2014
The use of more or less positive language in corporate disclosures has been the subject of increased interest in the academic literature. We add to this stream of research by examining whether there is a manager-specific component in the tone of earnings-

Some influences of subjective tones in monaural tone−on−tone masking

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1975
The influences of subjective phenomena upon measurements of monaural tone−on−tone masking not only effects interpretations of sensitivity changes but may yield information about the underlying distortion mechanisms. The paradigm analyzed here involves simultaneous presentation of two pure tones: the masker (ωr) at fixed amplitude (α) and an interrupted

Turning on a tone

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1991
It is possible to choose the starting phase of a pure tone in a way that minimizes the onset noise when the tone is turned on abruptly. A spectral model shows that when the tone has a low frequency, minimum onset noise is expected for a starting phase of zero (turning on a sine tone) but when the tone has a high frequency, minimum onset noise is ...

Objective Quality Assessment of Tone-Mapped Images

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2013
Tone-mapping operators (TMOs) that convert high dynamic range (HDR) to low dynamic range (LDR) images provide practically useful tools for the visualization of HDR images on standard LDR displays. Different TMOs create different tone-mapped images, and a

High Dynamic Range Image Compression by Optimizing Tone Mapped Image Quality Index

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2015
Tone mapping operators (TMOs) aim to compress high dynamic range (HDR) images to low dynamic range (LDR) ones so as to visualize HDR images on standard displays. Most existing TMOs were demonstrated on specific examples without being thoroughly evaluated
