Neural processing of hyper-and hypo-articulated vowels in Infant-Directed Speech

When addressing infants, adults use a speech register known as infant-directed speech (IDS). Compared to adult-directed speech (ADS), IDS has a number of distinctive acoustic and linguistic features. Vowel hyperarticulation, the expansion of the acoustic space between the corner vowels /i,u,a/, is one feature specifically proposed to facilitate language acquisition processes. Interestingly, the pr

Raman spectroscopy of mini-CAST soot with various fractions of organic compounds: Structural characterization during heating treatment from 25 °C to 1000 °C

Soot particles undergo considerable changes in composition, morphology, as well as in internal structure during formation from the incipient particles to more mature aggregates, and still there is a lack of understanding of these mechanisms. In this study, soot produced by a mini-CAST soot generator was probed using Raman spectroscopy with focus on soot with large variation in size and fraction of

Soot Optical Band Gap Evaluated Through In-Situ And Ex-Situ Measurements As Tracer Of Soot Evolution In Premixed Flames : Soot Optical Band Gap Evaluated Through In-Situ And Ex-Situ Measurements As Tracer Of Soot Evolution In Premixed Flames

The optical band gap has been used considerably in evaluating carbon network structures in terms of sp 2 /sp 3 sites and size of aromatic clusters. However, optical band gap determination of soot particles from optical measurements is complex due to the effects of other species including organic compounds, and the contribution of absorption from organics to the total soot absorption in the UV/visi

Yogic Breathing and Mindfulness as Stress-Coping Mediate Positive Health Outcomes of Yoga

Objectives. Despite accumulating research on yoga and its positive impact on both physiological and psychological health, it is still unclear how yoga improves health. Two central components of yoga: yogic breathing and mindfulness, may be important mechanisms by which individuals learn to cope with their daily stressors, and thereby reduce their risk of developing stress-related illness.

Efficient Pilot Allocation for URLLC Traffic in 5G Industrial IoT Networks

In this paper we address the problem of resource allocation for alarm traffic in industrial Internet of Things networks using massive MIMO. We formulate the general problem of how to allocate pilot signals to alarm traffic such that delivery is guaranteed, while also minimising the number of pilots reserved for alarms, thus maximising the channel resources available for other traffic, such as indu

Network Lifetime Maximization in Wireless Mesh Networks for Machine-to-Machine Communication

In this paper we present new optimization formulations for maximizing the network lifetime in wireless mesh networks performing data aggregation and dissemination for machine-to- machine communication in the Internet of Things. We focus on heterogeneous networks in which multiple applications co-exist and nodes may take on different roles for different applications. Moreover, we address network reIn this paper we present new optimization formulations for maximizing the network lifetime in wireless mesh networks performing data aggregation and dissemination for machine-to-machine communication in the Internet of Things.

Increasing Ethical Awareness : The Enhancement of Long-Term Effects of Ethics Teaching: A Quantitative Study

In this study, the impact of two different “methods” for teaching ethics as part of the religious education in the Swedish upper secondary school have been compared by means of a non-randomized controlled trial in two parts, involving 15 teachers and 524 students. The question was which “method” had the greatest capacity to generate long-term ethical awareness in the students. The intervention con

Den diabetiska handen - Komplikationer till diabetessjukdomen

Diabetes mellitus is common in Western countries. Secondary complications in various organs occur after type 1 as well as type 2 diabetes. Complications, such as nephropathy, retinopathy and neuropathy, are well known. Specific efforts to treat complications in the lower leg - »the diabetic foot» - have been emphasized. Various complications to diabetes occur also in the upper extremity and hand -

Träd + Radio: Hörspel

Träd+radio är ett hörspel om trädens underjordiska rotsystem, om att lyssna på radio, om den stränga filosofen Simone Weil, om att finna den största njutningen i smärtan, våldet och lydnaden, om att förvandlas till ett träd och om en dröm om undergången.

Transnational land acquisitions beyond the food and financial crises

Large-scale land acquisitions (LSLA) in resource-rich countries came to global attention after the food and financial crises of 2008. Previous research has assessed the magnitude of these land investments in terms of land areas acquired. In this study, we analyze the trends in the evolution of LSLA by framing the latter as virtual land trade network with land transactions occurring between 2000 an
