Full textAbstract:
Audio storytelling is booming. From crafted, long-form documentaries to short digital narratives, podcasting, social media and online streaming have liberated audio from the confines of a live radio schedule and created huge new transnational audiences. But how can the burgeoning influence of audio storytelling be harnessed in educational and community sectors? This article examines an initiative designed to advance the use of audio storytelling in educational contexts: the emotional history project, an intensive teaching model that trains undergraduate students with no prior audio experience to create powerful short audio stories in a 4 x 3 hour module. It relies on the capacity of audio to convey emotion, and the power of emotion to transcend social, cultural and racial differences and forge a visceral connection. By gathering deeply personal emotional moments, students not only have a heightened incentive to learn technical production skills, they are also motivated to consider ethical issues and vital principles of empathy and responsibility.

Full textAbstract:
Language use in everyday life can be studied using lightweight, wearable recorders that collect long-form recordings—that is, audio (including speech) over whole days. The hardware and software underlying this technique are increasingly accessible and inexpensive, and these data are revolutionizing the language acquisition field. We first place this technique into the broader context of the current ways of studying both the input being received by children and children's own language production, laying out the main advantages and drawbacks of long-form recordings. We then go on to argue that a unique advantage of long-form recordings is that they can fuel realistic models of early language acquisition that use speech to represent children's input and/or to establish production benchmarks. To enable the field to make the most of this unique empirical and conceptual contribution, we outline what this reverse engineering approach from long-form recordings entails, why it is useful, and how to evaluate success.

Full textAbstract:
Audio-visual records and archives constitute a fundamental heritage that satisfies multiple needs, including education, training, research and entertainment. As such, there is a need to appropriately preserve and conserve them so they can be accessed for as long as they are needed. In spite of their significant role in safeguarding cultural heritage, audio-visual records and archives, are often neglected and accorded less attention than paper-based records, especially in developing countries. Hence, there is a risk of losing information held in audio-visual form. That is why this study looked at how the National Archives of Zambia (NAZ) and the Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation (ZNBC) preserve audio-visual materials to ensure long-term accessibility of the information. The study investigated the types of audio-visual collections held, the storage equipment used, measures put in place to ensure long-term accessibility of audio-visual materials, the disaster preparedness plans in place to safeguard audio-visual archives and the major challenges encountered in the preservation of audio-visual materials. The findings of the study revealed that films (microfilm and microfiche), photographs and manuscripts, and video (video tapes) and sound recordings (compact cassette) constitute the biggest audio-visual collection preserved. The equipment used to store audio-visual materials included open shelves, specialised cabinets, electronic database for digitised materials, aisle mobiles and cupboards. The measures taken to ensure the long-term accessibility of audio-visual collection included digitisation and migration of endangered records and archives; fumigation of storage areas; conservation of damaged materials and regulation of temperatures and humidity in the storage areas. The disaster preparedness plans in place mostly covered structure insurance; protection against fire and water by way of installing fire extinguishers; smoke sensors; fire detectors and construction of purpose-built structures. The major challenges faced were financial constraints; technological obsolescence; lack of playback equipment; limited training; lack of strong back-up systems and inadequate storage facilities.

Full textAbstract:
Audio file size is relatively larger when compared to files with text format. Large files can cause various obstacles in the form of large space requirements for storage and a long enough time in the shipping process. File compression is one solution that can be done to overcome the problem of large file sizes. Arithmetic coding is one algorithm that can be used to compress audio files. The arithmetic coding algorithm encodes the audio file and changes one row of input symbols with a floating point number and obtains the output of the encoding in the form of a number of values greater than 0 and smaller than 1. The process of compression and decompression of audio files in this study is done against several wave files. Wave files are standard audio file formats developed by Microsoft and IBM that are stored using PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) coding. The wave file compression ratio obtained in this study was 16.12 percent with an average compression process time of 45.89 seconds, while the average decompression time was 0.32 seconds.

Song identification dan query by humming is an application that is developed using Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) algorithm.The application purpose is to detect and recognize humming from the input data. In this application the humming input will be divided into two parts, namely the training audio and test audio. For the training audio, the training audio will be divided into two process stages, namely recognizing humming and searching for the unique features of a humming audio.To recognize the humming feature, the humming will be processed using the MFCC method. After obtaining a part of the MFCC Features, the MFCC features will be saved as a vector model. The feature that has been extracted will be learned by the LSTM method. For the test audio of the stages carried out as in the training audio, after the MFCC Feature is detected, an introduction will be made based on learning that has been done with the LSTM method to obtain output in the form of a song name that is successfully recognized and detected will be labeled by the application.

Full textAbstract:
The world of audio is undergoing seismic changes. Traditionally a space dominated by linear radio programmes, in the 2020s this form of listening remains relevant but is now being challenged by other forms and global media platforms. In particular, podcasting offers producers opportunities to pitch for commissions from brands and platforms or to make work independently. Historically, podcasting was a medium led and shaped by amateurs and distributed for free by independent creators. In the 2020s this relationship began to shift. In the United Kingdom, audio producers are now finding success outside of radio, in what was once a market dominated by the BBC. Forming what we might term a ‘new audio economy’, producers and creatives are working across multiple forms of production in the long tail of audio media. Through interviews and analysis, this article will explore the impact of podcasting and other forms of audio production on the UK-independent radio/audio sector, noting the influence of the BBC and shifting patterns of production within the sector

Full textAbstract:
In the literature dedicated to twentieth-century music, the early history of electronic music is regularly presented hand in hand with the development of technical repetitive devices such as closed grooves and magnetic tape loops. Consequently, the idea that such devices were ‘invented’ in the studios of the first great representatives of electronic music tends to appear as an implicit consequence. However, re-examination of the long history of musical technology, from the ninth-century Banu Musa automatic flute to the Hammond organ of the 1930s, reveals that repetitive devices not only go right back to the earliest days of musical automation, but also evolved in a wide variety of contexts wholly unconnected from any form of musical institution. This article aims to shed light on this other, forgotten, history of repetitive audio technologies.

Full textAbstract:
In this article, we describe the hardware and software challenges involved in realizing Claytronics, a form of programmable matter made out of very large numbers-potentially millions-of submillimeter sized spherical robots. The goal of the claytronics project is to create ensembles of cooperating submillimeter robots, which work together to form dynamic 3D physical objects. For example, claytronics might be used in telepresense to mimic, with high-fidelity and in 3-dimensional solid form, the look, feel, and motion of the person at the other end of the telephone call. To achieve this long-range vision we are investigating hardware mechanisms for constructing submillimeter robots, which can be manufactured en masse using photolithography. We also propose the creation of a new media type, which we call pario. The idea behind pario is to render arbitrary moving, physical 3-dimensional objects that you can see, touch, and even hold in your hands. In parallel with our hardware effort, we are developing novel distributed programming languages and algorithms to control the ensembles, LDP and Meld. Pario may fundamentally change how we communicate with others and interact with the world around us. Our research results to date suggest that there is a viable path to implementing both the hardware and software necessary for claytronics, which is a form of programmable matter that can be used to implement pario. While we have made significant progress, there is still much research ahead in order to turn this vision into reality.

Abstract-- As we know, visually impaired or partially sighted people face a lot of problems reading or identifying any local scenarios. To vanquish this situation, we developed an audio-based image captioner that will identify the objects in an image and form a meaningful sentence that gives the output in the aural form. Image processing is a widely used method for developing many new applications. It isalso open source, so developers can use it easily. We used NLP (Natural Language Processing) to understand the description of an imageand convert the text to speech. A combination of R-LSTM and CNN is used, which is nothing but a reference based long-short term memory which matches different text data and takes it as reference and gives the output. Some of the other applications of image captioning are social media platforms like Instagram, etc., virtual assistants, and video editing software.

Full textAbstract:
With the rapid development in social media, single-modal emotion recognition is hard to satisfy the demands of the current emotional recognition system. Aiming to optimize the performance of the emotional recognition system, a multimodal emotion recognition model from speech and text was proposed in this paper. Considering the complementarity between different modes, CNN (convolutional neural network) and LSTM (long short-term memory) were combined in a form of binary channels to learn acoustic emotion features; meanwhile, an effective Bi-LSTM (bidirectional long short-term memory) network was resorted to capture the textual features. Furthermore, we applied a deep neural network to learn and classify the fusion features. The final emotional state was determined by the output of both speech and text emotion analysis. Finally, the multimodal fusion experiments were carried out to validate the proposed model on the IEMOCAP database. In comparison with the single modal, the overall recognition accuracy of text increased 6.70%, and that of speech emotion recognition soared 13.85%. Experimental results show that the recognition accuracy of our multimodal is higher than that of the single modal and outperforms other published multimodal models on the test datasets.

Journalism about West Papua is in many ways an act of translation. It involves not only translating between languages, but also disciplines, audiences and knowledges. This article examines how interdisciplinary research—such as anthropology and history— might intersect with journalism as a means to understand and challenge existing gaps in translation, or ‘silences’ about West Papua in the past and present. It also reflects on how audio documentaries carry out such translation work on misunderstood and underreported issues. To illustrate this, the author reflects on the process of making the audio documentary #Illridewithyou, West Papua for ABC Radio National’s Earshot documentary programme as well as a companion long-form article for the ABC’s website.

The audio poetry mix titled "Umetnost Gubljenja" (The Art of Losing / Vanishing) uses cut-up technique in order to mix and adjust the text of the poem "Umetnost Gubljenja" to the audio poetry form. An unknown program was used for mixing in this totally homemade art work, authored by Vladimir Milojković (sometimes published under the name Vladimir Vladda Miloykovitch). The mix is 6 minutes and 35 seconds long, mono sound, mp3 format. Conceptually, it is, in a certain way, socially engaged poetry, questioning the role of art in the modern world. Effects influencing the listeners were achieved through repetition of crucial words and tone changing.
It is recommendable to listen the mix via headset for better experience.

Full textAbstract:
Singing voice detection or vocal detection is a classification task that determines whether a given audio segment contains singing voices. This task plays a very important role in vocal-related music information retrieval tasks, such as singer identification. Although humans can easily distinguish between singing and nonsinging parts, it is still very difficult for machines to do so. Most existing methods focus on audio feature engineering with classifiers, which rely on the experience of the algorithm designer. In recent years, deep learning has been widely used in computer hearing. To extract essential features that reflect the audio content and characterize the vocal context in the time domain, this study adopted a long-term recurrent convolutional network (LRCN) to realize vocal detection. The convolutional layer in LRCN functions in feature extraction, and the long short-term memory (LSTM) layer can learn the time sequence relationship. The preprocessing of singing voices and accompaniment separation and the postprocessing of time-domain smoothing were combined to form a complete system. Experiments on five public datasets investigated the impacts of the different features for the fusion, frame size, and block size on LRCN temporal relationship learning, and the effects of preprocessing and postprocessing on performance, and the results confirm that the proposed singing voice detection algorithm reached the state-of-the-art level on public datasets.

Abstract As the core component of modern commercial aircraft, turbofan engines have long been the center of focus in aircraft maintenance. Being subject to high temperatures and immense pressures causes problems for the engine components, such as the fan blades, as they are frequently burdened with the potential of overhaul and malfunction. Over many years, the industry has seen various methods of engine inspection and maintenance, ranging from manual inspection to computing large quantities of pre-existing data. Within, audio signal analysis has stood out as a productive, non-invasive method, with many alternate studies analyzing sound signals from components such as the combustion chamber. However, many of these methods, despite demonstrating good accuracy, are incredibly complex and require sophisticated apparatus. Therefore, this study begins by investigating the sound generation process of turbofan engines, especially how the features and form of the fan blade characterize its audio signals. This investigation proposes a solution that utilizes a fast Multi-Class Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm based on fan-blade-related audio signals from a perspective similar to the classification of music and images through supervised machine learning. Experimental results show that this fast Multi-Class SVM is more effective than traditional machine learning methods in its accuracy, F1-score, and other indicators.

Full textAbstract:
Communication in any language involves first of all the formation of skills not only of speaking, but also of understanding speech by ear. Auding is a process of listening, recognition and understanding of a sounding speech. Auding is a receptive form of speech activity. The object of the audit is the other person's statement. The result of auding is an understanding or a misunderstanding of the statement. The auding process is directly dependent on the properties of the working memory, on the volume of the long-term memory, the ability of the trainee to predict and understand what is perceived, on the qualities of aural and logical memory. Control is needed in the formation of auding skills. The purpose of any control is to determine the level of formation of speech skills and how accurately and fully a particular audio text is heard by students. As one of the goals of teaching, auding is at the same time an important means of teaching. Auding promotes the mastery of verbal communication in a foreign language.

Full textAbstract:
The commercial life of optical disks started in the late 1970s with prerecorded, read-only video disks. The video information was stored on the disks in the form of pits with varying lengths aligned in a spiral track, a structure which lends itself to easy mass replication. The pits were recorded in a “master” disk by exposing a positive photoresist to a focused beam of blue or UV light from a gas laser and subsequently developing the resist. Now, some 15 years later, mass-replicated, read-only video and audio disks still form the most important application of optical disk technology. Today a large majority of the corresponding masters are recorded using virtually the same technique.In view of the relative importance of prerecorded disks, it is amazing that so little seems to have changed in the mastering processes. Part of the explanation lies in the fact that the dimensions of the relief structures on the early optical disks were defined by what a player could read using relatively cheap optics, rather than by what could be made in the mastering process. If in the beginning the analog video disk system (Video Long Play or LaserVision) was rather demanding, the digital audio disk (compact disk) (see Figure 1a), introduced later, was a much easier system from a mastering point of view. In that period a trend toward cheaper and faster mastering techniques developed, resulting in a few proposals for direct-effect and direct metal mastering. However, in the meantime very high-quality mastering became necessary for the CD-video system and for preformatted data disks. In the CD-video system, the combination of digital audio and analog video leads in some cases to pits as short as 300 nm (see Figure 1b). On preformatted data disks, wide shallow grooves may have to be combined with narrow deep header pits (Figure 1c).

Full textAbstract:
Digital advertisement is one of the promotional media used by producers to embed brands in the memory of their consumers. However, in the current era, digital advertising is not only used to promote a brand but in delivering public service advertisements, digital advertising is often used. This is because, with the development of the digital era, digital advertising is accepted by the public more quickly. There are various types of digital advertising, including Squeeze Frame. The process of running Squeeze Frame using the Vmix software. Vmix software is a virtual mixer that runs using a keyboard and mouse. In a broadcasting process, especially in outdoor areas, long distances in the process of controlling audio-video broadcasting become one of the obstacles. So there are limitations in running the Vmix software which can only be run using the keyboard and mouse. In this research, an alternative tool is created that can be used when running Vmix software in console form. The form of console hardware is easy to carry so that the broadcasting process using Vmix software can be carried out more easily. By using Arduino Uno CH340 as a microcontroller, the console not only adjusts the audio-video input but also adjusts the squeeze frame display. The result of this research is that the hardware console runs well, for the squeeze frame merging button for public service advertisements. Respondents are interested in this console with a percentage of 95.8%

Full textAbstract:
Peer group supervision has had little attention in the research literature, although it is a common form of supervision utilised by psychologists in practice. The development and implementation of a structured peer supervision group (PSG) with nine trainee psychologists, within the training setting of university–based services, is described in this study. Audio–recordings of nine hour–long PSG sessions, four individual supervision sessions, a focus group evaluation and individual trainee interviews were gathered, to explore the potential contributions of PSG to a training programme. The data were subjected to a systematic data analytic procedure based on the principles of grounded theory. The findings illustrate a different form of learning experience in PSG, which may complement the learning in dyadic supervision. Strategies which seem to facilitate learning for trainees are derived from a comparison of case material presented in the contexts of both PSG and dyadic supervision. Potential ways of optimising supervision experiences are discussed, and recommendations are made for the further development of the PSG model.

Full textAbstract:
Many animals rely on long-form communication, in the form of songs, for vital functions such as mate attraction and territorial defence. We explored the prospect of improving automatic recognition performance by using the temporal context inherent in song. The ability to accurately detect sequences of calls has implications for conservation and biological studies. We show that the performance of a convolutional neural network (CNN), designed to detect song notes (calls) in short-duration audio segments, can be improved by combining it with a recurrent network designed to process sequences of learned representations from the CNN on a longer time scale. The combined system of independently trained CNN and long short-term memory (LSTM) network models exploits the temporal patterns between song notes. We demonstrate the technique using recordings of fin whale ( Balaenoptera physalus ) songs, which comprise patterned sequences of characteristic notes. We evaluated several variants of the CNN + LSTM network. Relative to the baseline CNN model, the CNN + LSTM models reduced performance variance, offering a 9–17% increase in area under the precision–recall curve and a 9–18% increase in peak F1-scores. These results show that the inclusion of temporal information may offer a valuable pathway for improving the automatic recognition and transcription of wildlife recordings.

Full textAbstract:
The lecture has been much maligned as a pedagogical form. It has been denigrated as a «hot medium» that has long been «superseded» by the cooler dialogical and televisual forms. Yet the lecture persists and even flourishes today in the form of the podcast, the TED Talk, Kahn Academy and the «smart» lecture hall (outfitted with audio, video and student feedback technologies). This persistence should lead us to re-evaluate both the lecture and the role of the media that have been related to it over time. This paper examines the lecture as a site of intersecting media, as «a site where differences between media are negotiated» as these media evolve (Franzel 2010). This study shows the lecture as bridging oral communication with writing and newer media technologies, rather than as being superseded by newer electronic and digital forms. The result is a remarkably adaptable and robust form that combines textual record and ephemeral event. It is that is capable of addressing a range of different demands and circumstances, both in terms of classroom pragmatics and more abstractly, of the circulation of knowledge itself. The Web, which brings multiple media together with new and established forms and genres, presents fertile grounds for the continuation and revitalization of the lecture as a dominant pedagogical form.

Full textAbstract:
The importance of public media literacy has been recognized by the School of Communication, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia for a long time. Various studies that support this issue are then used as a basis for community service program on improving the ability to use media in various places with diverse target audiences. This activity was first carried out by a team of lecturers involving students in 2011 and continued until 2019. There was a fundamental shift in its substance related to the rapid development of information and communication technology. This shift is primarily a form of media. Previously the media used by the public were print, audio, visual and audio visual. With the development of technology and the emergence of digital media, grouping occurs as the old or conventional media and new or digital media. This paper aims to explain the track record of community service in increasing media literacy conducted by the School of Communication, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia, as a form of evaluation and mapping in an effort to maintain program sustainability. The results of the track record evaluation and mapping show that the shift in the shape of the media requires an adjustment in the substance of the material, namely from increasing the ability to use conventional media, to increasing the ability to use digital media. Therefore, in development, the preparation of materials, delivery methods and implementation, requires the right strategy for this effort to be sustainable. The implementation of the plans arranged shows that collaboration with various parties and an understanding of the culture of the target communities will facilitate the delivery of material and increase the success of the program.

Full textAbstract:
Sheet music is a transcribed or printed type of melodic documentation that portrays the rhythms, harmonies, pitches of music with the assistance of melodic images. Printed music is the most essential instrument for artists to learn and play music. An educated musician can, from this sheet, play an entire grand composition. However, making sheet music from scratch is a very long and intricate process. A lot of musical experience is required for making sheet music from music one hears and even experts tend to make mistakes. This makes it almost impossible for beginners who are unable to distinguish between different chords to play the music that they hear. We aim to create a system that would provide the user with the needed sheet music by taking the input from the user in the form of an audio mp3 file. The proposed system automatically generates sheet music directly from recorded songs. This system proposed is mainly composed of estimation of chords then converting it into MIDI file which is a computer understandable language, and eventually into sheet music. All stereo audio recordings are converted into mono which further resampled to 16 kHz. Music generation is also applied which gives a priming sequence to the model in the types of a MIDI file and then predicts the further notes to help musicians form further melody while the composition of music is taking place. Beginners and lesser experienced musicians also struggle with procuring sheet music for melodies and are limited to only what is available from other professional transcribers. For professional musicians, it helps to lay the foundations and automates a major part of the creation process. Professionals can further improve the automatically generated sheet music without the burden of starting from scratch

Full textAbstract:
The critical and commercial success of the contemporary American long-form true crime docuseries has rapidly codified a series of narrative practices, particularly in works developed by streaming channels (Netflix, Amazon Prime) and premium cable networks (HBO) promoting quality television as part of their featured output. This article considers ethical concerns arising from the intersection of true crime documentary, narrative prorogation, and audio/visual rhetoric. Focusing primarily on Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos’ Making A Murderer (2015–2018), I argue that documentaries in this field develop – whilst also depoliticising and depersonalising – the narrative, aesthetic, and intellectual concepts introduced to the field by the so-called ‘New Documentary’. I outline what is at stake in docuseries works intersecting the true crime genre which utilise aesthetic strategies of New Documentary that lack foundation in either the socially-minded counter-narrative or self-critique that has historically underscored their power: namely a narrative capability enriched by a medium demanding content in terms of the durational, but thwarted by the episodic ‘bingeworthy’ form that withholds information, the unyielding commercial demands of the platform, and the clashing of earnest fact-finding with a critical artifice shorn of its reason for deployment.

Full textAbstract:
This paper constitutes an attempt to describe the early stages of morphological development of three Polish children on the basis of the language corpus collected in the form of parental diaries and audio recordings in the course of three-year-long longitudinal studies. The onset of morphological development is accounted for within the framework of Natural Morphology ( Galeas 1998 , Wurzel 1994 , Dressler et al. 1987 ). It is suggested that the premorphological stage is followed by the protomorphological stage which marks the beginning of morphological productivity, which is characterized by a significant degree of constructional iconicity defined by parameters of morphological naturalness, such as diagrammaticity, morphosemantic transparency and transparency of encoding. It is amply demonstrated that the language of children is far more regular than the language of adults due to its tendency to avoid alternation, which goes in line with previous research into the nature of the acquisition of Polish (see e.g. Smoczyńska 1985 ).

Full textAbstract:
The Pattern generation and Analysis is the technique of recognizing an object say, a target in combat space. The combat space T consists of targets of three types i) Wanted Targets W ii) Rejected Targets R iii) Unknown Targets U So that T = W ? R ? U The description of object is called pattern.Charaterization of pattern class by common properties shared by all of its members is another basic concept used in design of an pattern recognisation system. Main objective of this approach is to determine common properties from finite set of samples patterns and to examine a new pattern for a suitable switch. In signal processing , the role of input is vital to recognize objects. The input to the digital computer refers to any data or instructions entered into the memory. Data is a set of meaningful perceptual observations about an entity expressed in numerical ,alphabetical, graphical or mixed form. While Instructions refer to a set of action commands issued to CPU to tell a computer how to perform the tasks necessary to process data into information. Digital computer can accept the input via written/typed form through keyboard or the spoken/audio form through microphone. A great deal of work has been done in evaluating speech as a means of computer input. The present paper suggests the rhythmic syllable arrangements in various poetic meters as a means of audio input, directly producing binary code. Such binary syllable arrangement has been envisaged by Pingalacharya [1] . His Chhandas Shastra or science of poetic meters in Sanskrit is a well known classical treatise on Prosody. It deals with the rhythmic syllable arrangements in various poetic meters. According to Chhandas Shastra [2] every pronounced letter is either “Laghu” or Short [0] and “Guru” or Long[1] and each poetic meter is based on their fixed sequence[3]. Hence desired binary input sequence could be produced merely by utterance of corresponding syllables. Case studies of over 15 sets of such voice samples by male/ female/child candidates were conducted and the resulting binary sequences are presented with corresponding accuracies.

Full textAbstract:
Depression is one of the most prominent mental health issues, characterized by a depressed low mood and an absence of enthusiasm in activities. In terms of early detection, accurate diagnosis, and effective treatment, doctors face a serious challenge from depression, which is a serious global health issue. For patients with this mental disease to receive prompt medical attention and improve their general well-being, early identification is essential. For the purpose of detecting various psychological illnesses including depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder, medical audio consultations along with survey responses have been used. A depressed individual displays a range of subtle signs that may be more easily identified by combining the results of multiple modalities. Multimodality involves extracting maximum information from data by using multiple modes, so that the deep learning model can be trained efficiently to give better results. Given that each modality functions differently, combining various modalities is not easy, and each origin of a modality takes on a different form. It is clear from the literature that is currently significant in the area that, combining the modalities yields positive outcomes. A trustworthy approach to identify depression is thus urgently needed because it continues to be a problem for many individuals in today’s society. In this work, textual and audio features are incorporated related to the identification of depression, and a novel multimodal approach using an optimized Bi-directional Long Short -Term Memory model that recognizes premature depression is suggested for medical intervention before it develops further.

Full textAbstract:
The limitations of the traditional interactive teaching model are gradually becoming apparent in the current music teaching process. Based on the interactive teaching theory of artificial intelligence, this paper constructs an evaluation model of ethnic music appreciation ability and conducts research by using a novel method of fusion of long- and short-term audio features. The model proposes the classical features describing the sound quality and the beat histogram as the feature of the long-term rhythm of the music to form a mixed feature; secondly, the representation method of the song style vector is proposed, and the quantitative problem of music teaching is solved. During the simulation process, the model adopts the popular Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern and Unified Modeling Language (UML) and is developed with the Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition (J2EE) architecture. It realized the user login function of three identities of students, teachers, and system administrators, and the subsystem can complete the management of students’ personal information, browse related courseware information and other resource information, and download courseware and tutorials. The experimental results show that the average value of the students’ evaluation is 0.606; the average value of case is 0.5852; it also reduces the workload of later maintenance of the system.

Full textAbstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has presented significant challenges for the education and training sector. We could have witnessed the rise of technology for webinars which are tools to deliver training and education through video and audio communication in the form of distance learning for instructors and participants. How-ever, commercial webinars such as zoom or webex may lack a management system for organizing the amount of participants for long term courses. The present study aimed to develop a webinar tool for the context of adult training for entrepreneurs of SMEs in Thailand. In order to develop a webinar tool, we proposed a general framework which consisted of three stages. The requirement stage aimed to explore the baseline survey from 411 participants and summarize the feature list of the webinar. The development stage employed the kanban methodology to develop each feature list and proposed the architecture of the system. Finally, the evaluation stage compares two groups of 110 participants between our webinar approach and zoom application with statistics of attendance regarding those who attended the course and also contains a satisfaction survey. The results show that the important feature to engage participants in long term courses were system notifications and the availability of a web-based platform for providing easy access to webinar.

Full textAbstract:
The changing of English language teaching method from Audio-lingual Method to Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) has given great impact to the pedagogy of teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) and/ or English as a Second Language (ESL). Task Based Language Teaching (TBLT) method which emphasizes more on the meaning of a language and targeted tasks, then, dominates the English teaching world as a response to the un-satisfaction towards the previous methods (Long, 2015). This current study aims at seeing to what extent the task variety influences students’ willingness to communicate based on three contexts which include trait-like, situation, and linguistic. Three communicative tasks which emphasizes both on focused meaning and focused form were given. The communicative tasks include game, problem solving, and jigsaw. Observation was done during class interaction and continued with in depth interview. The result shows that emotion, class situation, and cognitive simultaneously influence the students’ willingness to communicate in English class. Those factors are inseparable, interact and influence interchangeably on the students’ willingness to communicate in English class as elucidated in complex dynamic theory.

Full textAbstract:
Scinax Wagler currently harbors 72 treefrog species distributed throughout the Neotropical region, occurring from Mexico to Argentina and Uruguay, and also in some Caribbean islands (Frost et al. 2020). The genus has a high level of cryptic diversity, with its actual number of species currently considered to be underestimated (Fouquet et al. 2007, Ferrão et al. 2016). Scinax funereus (Cope) is a medium-sized species described from Moyobamba, San Martín Department, northern Peru, with occurrences reported from the Peruvian and Ecuadorian Amazon (Duellman & Wiens 1993), southern Colombia (Lynch 2005), and from the Brazilian states of Acre (Bernarde et al. 2011) and Amazonas (Ramalho et al. 2016). Duellman (1978) reported that the advertisement call of S. funereus “consists of a moderately long, rather high-pitched, single note”, but as no call recording was obtained at the time, it was not described. Although Read (2000) published the species’ call in the audio form in a compact disc (CD), it was not formally described. Given this, herein we provide the first formal description of the advertisement call of S. funereus.

Full textAbstract:
As a presentational performance in which two actors perform a scripted dialogue that includes several short vocal selections, Chinese crosstalk features animated exchanges between the actors while also inviting enthusiastic involvement from the audience in the form of cheering applause. Inspired by research on the musicality of spoken bouts between same-sex friends (Hawkins, 2014; Robledo Del Canto et al., 2016; Cross et al., 2016) the present study focuses on two selections in a crosstalk performance—looking at not only the vocal interactions between the actors, but also those between the actors and the audience. Using ELAN, a tool for analysis of video and audio, Praat acoustic analysis software, and R statistical software, the study reveals (1) long durations of audience responses, signifying the seminal importance of the audience as a third performing agent in Chinese crosstalk, (2) significant portions of the performance that demonstrate rhythmic entrainment between performers and audience members, and (3) highly significant examples of approximate pitch matching between the ending sounds of utterances and the initial sounds of subsequent responses in the final selection of the performance.

Full textAbstract:
For most learners of English as a foreign language (EFL), there has long been a lack of effective opportunities to practice English writing skills. However, the recent development of social networking services (SNS) provides new possibilities for these learners to practice writing English in a meaningful way. Meanwhile, with the popularity of social media in language learning, writing is unnecessarily in the form of plain text, and multimodal composing based on text and additional modes such as audio, video or images has been a new form of writing activity instead. This study integrated SNS-based multimodal composing activities into secondary and higher education, with the aim of determining its effects on learners’ writing performance. Two classes in senior high school Grade 10 and four in college were recruited, three as the control groups without using SNS-based multimodal composing, and others as the experimental groups. While all classes’ writing performance improved between pretest and posttest, the gains in overall writing competence by experimental groups and the gains in three detailed aspects (readability, lexical complexity and syntactic complexity) by college students were significantly larger. Progress in detailed aspects, on the other hand, was different across different groups. These findings are discussed in relation to specific characteristics of multimodal composing and SNS-based learning that enables learners to improve writing performance.

Full textAbstract:
Acousmaticity of Film Sound Effects: Media Mystification of Foley in the Context of Sound Design The text is about the foley profession, an important specialty performed as part of film sound design, at the post-production stage. What’s important here is both, the foley artist’s body, which becomes an instrument, and the ontology of created sounds, which are inserted into the finished film and synchronized with the picture. The author wonders if there is still a place for foley artists in the digital reality and common computerization of work. But the most important issue concerns the nature of sounds themselves, in the context of their production, acousmatics and the ubiquitous sound design. What is the sound implemented into the picture, does the picture give credence to the sound, even though the sound is “substituted” because it is produced in the studio? The situation is debatable, in the context of acousmatic listening (i.e. without the context of the source), because the picture provides a substitute context for the sound, and the viewer (listener) accepts this audio-visual relationship without reservation (as long as the sound is prepared well). Especially since by going to the cinema, the viewer agrees to a form of manipulation in the name of entertainment. Usually he or she is not aware of the mystification in the field of sound, which - within the oculocentric perception ‒ for him or her is only a complement to the picture, although, in fact, it plays a fundamental role in understanding what is happening on the screen. Other topics discussed in the text concern the communicativeness of sound and the historical background of the foley profession. Also important are the interrelations between foley and sound design and other areas of sound activity, as part of the preparation of all the audio layers of a film.

The article examines the history of the study of official TV shows in the Kazakh language in the linguistic and stylistic direction. The authors reviews the history of television language research in Kazakh linguistics. Television broadcasts are a synthesized work of art, its means of information dissemination: language is the main means of information dissemination, video material is the main feature of television information dissemination, and audio-information is an auxiliary means of influence.The language of TV news is a two-way process of a monologue type based on a dialogical, discursive character, a special type of mass communication that is officially spoken in a cool voice.Various literary lexical units used in the language of telecasts affect the vocabulary of the receiving group, form their linguistic character, and supplement their vocabulary and composition.Final news is a collective product, its subjects are complex communicative individuals.Linguistic patterns caused by taking into account some extralinguistic factors affecting the language of telecasts are a feature of the language of telecasts in information dissemination.Mass information is delivered to the addressee in various genre forms. There are three types of traditional journalistic genre: analytical, informational and art-publicistic. Breaking news belongs to its informative genre.Broadcasting is a special product of electronic mass media. Its main difference from other types of mass media is that it is possible to watch (visual) and listen (audio) TV broadcasts, thus it is possible to get the most important information quickly, and it will remain in people's memory for a long time. Here, the main features of newspapers and radio are summarized in one place.Linguistic communication in breaking news belongs to the universal type of journalistic discourse, which is called the language of mass communication. Language communication here is oral, formal, monologue, dialogic, public, mass, communicative.

Background: There is a paucity of research on the long-term impact of stress-reduction in Hispanic/Latina breast cancer (BC) survivors, a growing minority. In this article, we assess the long-term efficacy of an 8-week training program in mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) on quality of life (QoL) in Hispanic BC survivors. Methods: Hispanic BC survivors, within the first 5 years of diagnosis, stages I to III BC, were recruited. Participants were enrolled in bilingual, 8-week intensive group training in MBSR and were asked to practice a- home, daily. They were also provided with audio recordings and a book on mindfulness practices. Patient-reported outcomes for QoL and distress were evaluated at baseline, and every 3 months, for 24 months. Results: Thirty-three self-identified Hispanic women with BC completed the MBSR program and were followed at 24 months. Statistically significant reduction was noted for the Generalized Anxiety Disorder measure (mean change −2.39, P=0.04); and Patient Health Questionnaire (mean change −2.27, P=0.04), at 24 months, compared with baseline. Improvement was noted in the Short-Form 36 Health-related QoL Mental Component Summary with an increase of 4.07 (95% confidence interval = 0.48-7.66, P=0.03). However, there was no significant change in the Physical Component Summary. Conclusions: Hispanic BC survivors who participated in an 8-week MBSR–based survivorship program reported persistent benefits with reduced anxiety, depression, and improved mental health QoL over 24 months of follow-up. Stress reduction programs are beneficial and can be implemented as part of a comprehensive survivorship care in BC patients.

Full textAbstract:
In the emerging field of acoustic novelty detection, most research efforts are devoted to probabilistic approaches such as mixture models or state-space models. Only recent studies introduced (pseudo-)generative models for acoustic novelty detection with recurrent neural networks in the form of an autoencoder. In these approaches, auditory spectral features of the next short term frame are predicted from the previous frames by means of Long-Short Term Memory recurrent denoising autoencoders. The reconstruction error between the input and the output of the autoencoder is used as activation signal to detect novel events. There is no evidence of studies focused on comparing previous efforts to automatically recognize novel events from audio signals and giving a broad and in depth evaluation of recurrent neural network-based autoencoders. The present contribution aims to consistently evaluate our recent novel approaches to fill this white spot in the literature and provide insight by extensive evaluations carried out on three databases: A3Novelty, PASCAL CHiME, and PROMETHEUS. Besides providing an extensive analysis of novel and state-of-the-art methods, the article shows how RNN-based autoencoders outperform statistical approaches up to an absolute improvement of 16.4% averageF-measure over the three databases.

Full textAbstract:
The trunk borer is a great danger to forests because of its strong concealment, long lag and great destructiveness. In order to improve the early monitoring ability of trunk borers, the representative Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire was selected as the research object. The convolutional neural network named TrunkNet was designed to identify the activity sounds of Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire larvae. The activity sounds were recorded as vibration signals in audio form. The detector was used to collect the activity sounds of Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire larvae in the wood segments and some typical outdoor noise. The vibration signal pulse duration is short, random and high energy. TrunkNet was designed to train and identify vibration signals of Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire. Over the course of the experiment, the test accuracy of TrunkNet was 96.89%, while MobileNet_V2, ResNet18 and VGGish showed 84.27%, 79.37% and 70.85% accuracy, respectively. TrunkNet based on the convolutional neural network can provide technical support for the automatic monitoring and early warning of the stealthy tree trunk borers. The work of this study is limited to a single pest. The experiment will further focus on the applicability of the network to other pests in the future.

ObjectivesThe motivation and retention of community health workers (CHWs) is a challenge and inadequately addressed in research and policy. We sought to identify factors influencing the retention of CHWs in Ethiopia and ways to avert their exit.DesignA qualitative study was undertaken using in-depth interviews with the study participants. Interviews were audio-recorded, and then simultaneously translated into English and transcribed for analysis. Data were analysed in NVivo 12 using an iterative inductive-deductive approach.SettingThe study was conducted in two districts each in the Tigray and Southern Nations, Nationalities and People’s Republic (SNNPR) regions in Ethiopia. Respondents were located in a mix of rural and urban settings.ParticipantsLeavers of health extension worker (HEW) positions (n=20), active HEWs (n=16) and key informants (n=11) in the form of policymakers were interviewed.ResultsWe identified several extrinsic and intrinsic motivational factors affecting the retention and labour market choices of HEWs. While financial incentives in the form of salaries and material incentives in the form of improvements to health facility infrastructure, provision of childcare were reported to be important, non-material factors like HEWs’ self-image, acceptance and validation by the community and their supervisors were found to be critical. A reduction or loss of these non-material factors proved to be the catalyst for many HEWs to leave their jobs.ConclusionOur study contributes new empirical evidence to the global debate on factors influencing the motivation and retention of CHWs, by being the first to include job leavers in the analysis. Our findings suggest that policy interventions that appeal to the social needs of CHWs can prove to be more acceptable and potentially cost-effective in improving their retention in the long run. This is important for government policymakers in resource constrained settings like Ethiopia that rely heavily on lay workers for primary healthcare delivery.

Full textAbstract:
This essay argues that Beckett's examination of media forms, rather than being eclipsed by, culminated in the return to prose around 1980, and that Beckett's long-term preoccupation with silence, incoherence and ‘the unword’ manifests in the relational nature of nostalgia in his later texts. Attending to a particular moment of Beckett's work on television and late prose – his directing the teleplay Geistertrio (Ghost Trio) at Süddeutscher Rundfunk (SDR) and his simultaneous composition of the novella Company – compels examination of the reconfiguration of some of Beckett's earlier concerns with form and media in his late aesthetics. The use of separate recording processes for the audio track and visual footage in the production of Geistertrio is reflected in the disunity of visual and aural forms of expression in Company and later works. While Beckett still incorporates antagonistic relations figuratively in Company, the separate positioning of descriptions of sound and sight allows for a prominent tone of longing and affection, if also mixed with subtle irony. In this late phase of Beckett's work, the sense of disunity inherent to Beckett's conceptions of remembering and imagining operates through the combined separation of visual and aural expression. The haunting character of the affective and compositional structure of these late works connects to the function of Beethoven's piano trio ‘Geistertrio’ in Beckett's eponymous teleplay. At this point Beckett takes an interest in silence that occurs through the interplay of instrumental parts in Beethoven's music. Among Beckett's earlier formulations of the tension between form and incoherence, his juxtaposition of form with the chaos and distress of history anticipates the way in which Beckett uses formal disunity to let a path through the past be imagined in Company. The analysis which follows brings together Beckett's recently published letters, recollections from his colleagues of 1976 and 1977 and close textual study.

Full textAbstract:
Streaming music videos on the internet is an increasingly popular music listening activity that has remained virtually unexplored within music psychology. Studies of the role of music in film, as well as empirical research investigating the influence of audio-visual media and memory, have shown that visual information can have a profound effect on how music is perceived and remembered. The current study aimed to create a framework for understanding music video (MV) experiences by finding out when and why individuals choose to engage with this form of media, how these experiences contribute to the perception of musical meaning and influence affective outcomes, and whether these effects carry over to subsequent listening experiences. An online questionnaire study was designed, and data were collected from 34 participants with a mean age of 22.4 years (SD = 2.79). Abductive analysis of the qualitative data was conducted based on theories derived from topical areas of music psychology research. A framework was devised which illustrates MV listening experiences over four temporal stages: Intention, Attention, Reaction, and Retention (IARR). The IARR framework provides novel insights into MV listening experiences and outcomes by shedding light on how extra-musical information can have a long-term influence on the perception of music's meaning and affective quality.

Full textAbstract:
Cigarettes have long been recognized as a risk factor for various health problems, and are the world's largest preventable cause of death1. Teenagers are more easily influenced especially by social groups to do negative things, such as smoking2. Currently the trend to start smoking is increasing among teenagers. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of health promotion presented in the form of audio-visual and interactive dialogue on interest in quitting smoking in teens in Palembang. This research is an analytic study through a quasi-experimental approach with a pretest-posttest two group research design without control group. The research sample consisted of 206 teenage smokers, divided into 2 groups, namely 103 teenage in the video group and 103 teenage in the interactive dialogue group. This study uses paired t-test, Wilcoxon, and Mann Whitney test. This study reveals that health promotion through video media and interactive dialogue is effective to elevate the knowledge and interest in smoking cessation among teenagers (p = 0.000 α = 0.05). The mean value of knowledge and interest in the interactive dialogue group is higher than in the video group. However, there was no difference concerning effectiveness of health promotion through interactive dialogue and videos on the knowledge and interest in quitting smoking among teenagers. (p = 0.21 α = 0.05).

The main purpose of IP next generation version 6 or called IPv6 is to meet the needs of IP addresses for the long term. With the presence of IPv6 it is also necessary routing protocol that supports IPv6 network. Routing protocols work to connect between networks, and choose paths or routes to reach other networks. There are three types of routing protocols that already support IPv6 services. Among other types of distance vector (RIPng), link-state (OSPFv3) and hybrid (EIGRPv6). This final project is designed to know the performance of the three types of routing protocols on IPv6 network. Testing is done by analyzing routing update process, ICMPv6 packet analysis and testing by sending Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) packet in the form of audio video stream sent via server and accessed through client. In the simulation and analysis results using GNS3 (Graphic Network Simulator 3) and wireshark found that the OSPFv3 performance testing is better than EIGRPv6 and RIPng when performing routing updates or when link down occurs. Then the data analysis of test results with the delivery of Real-time Transport Protocol package so that it can be concluded that OSPFv3 algorithm better than EIGRPv6 and RIPng in terms of delay, packet loss, throughput and jitter.

Full textAbstract:
Since 2007, Coke Studio has rapidly become one of the most influential platforms in televisual, digital and musical media, and has assumed a significant role in generating new narratives about Pakistani modernity. The musical pieces in Coke Studio’s videos re-work a range of genres and performing arts, encompassing popular and familiar songs, as well as resuscitating classical poetry and the musical traditions of marginalised communities. This re-working of the creative arts of South Asia represents an innovative approach to sound, language, and form, but also poses larger questions about how cultural memory and national narratives can be reimagined through musical media, and then further reworked by media consumers and digital audiences. This article considers how Coke Studio’s music videos have been both celebrated and criticised, and explores the online conversations that compared new covers to the originals, be they much loved or long forgotten. The ways in which the videos are viewed, shared, and dissected online sheds light on new modes of media consumption and self-reflection. Following specific examples, we examine the larger implications of the hybrid text–video–audio object in the digital age, and how the consumers of Coke Studio actively participate in developing new narratives about South Asian history and Pakistani modernity.

Chi'e: Journal of Japanese Learning and Teaching 10, no. 2 (October 30, 2022): 137–45. http://dx.doi.org/10.15294/chie.v10i2.58230.
Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study was to find out how the pronunciation of the nasal sound /ɴ/was followed by the nasal bilabial consonant /m/ by Indonesian Japanese learners. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach. This research data is in the form of audio recordings of 13 students learning Japanese at Brawijaya University, which is compared with the pronunciation of the same sentence in the Suzuki-kun feature in OJAD. The analysis results found sound assimilation (on'in datsuraku), so the nasal sound produced in the middle of the vocabulary was the nasal bilabial /m/. The presence of sound assimilation causes the duration when pronouncing the nasal bilabial /m/to be quite long, with a duration range of /m/ 0.121208 – 0.161208 seconds. The nasal sound is produced if it is seen from the presence or absence of the insertion of /ɴ/. The duration, it is found in the pronunciation of [kammoɴ] and [semmenʑo], respectively, that 3 out of 13 students agree with the pronunciation of OJAD, while in the pronunciation of [ kiɕokɯmammeɴ], only 1 in 13 students qualified. So it can be said that students still tend to pronounce the nasal sound /ɴ/ followed by the nasal bilabial sound /m/ with a nasal sound other than the bilabial /m/.

Accurate usage of tablet etc. devices in growth period is essential in terms of development performance. Tablet usage for education and teaching supports audio-visual memory; however, an examination of the consequences of continued usage reveals serious problems. Technology is essential in terms of communication and reaching information in the life of every individual regardless of their age and period. However, especially for small children, tablet and other technological devices should be used under the surveillance of parents. In terms of development, tablets are used in education in areas such as linguistic, social, cognitive and academic development. However, it is known that using them for long hours has negative impacts on the development of children. In this paper, interviews were held with 10 mothers whose children are going to pre-school institutions. The research used face-to-face interview technique. The purpose of the study is to examine the attitude of mothers as regards usage of tablets by their children. During the interviews with mothers, the “interview form prepared for tablet usage” was used which was prepared by the researcher this form was prepared by the researcher. It consisted of question and answer technique mothers who constituted the study group were interviewed in person and analysis were made according to the obtained answers. Sub-theme was created and analysis were concluded based on these data. Obtained findings show that mothers have both negative and positive attitude as regards tablet usage. They think that tablets are effective in teaching their children important concepts, but are also worried that it can lead to addiction and problems in their relations with peers.
