چکیده

Using time-into-utterance as a predictive factor for language modeling brings a benefit, although this is tiny compared to that obtainable by other non-lexical features [Ward and Vega, 2009], let alone ngram information. As some of the details of the computation may be relevant more generally, this report explores various aspects of this feature, using perplexity as the metric of quality and utility.

Predictive Power of Involvement Load Hypothesis and Technique Feature Analysis across L2 Vocabulary Learning Tasks

Involvement Load Hypothesis (ILH) and Technique Feature Analysis (TFA) are two frameworks which operationalize depth of processing of a vocabulary learning task. However, there is dearth of research comparing the predictive power of the ILH and the TFA across second language (L2) vocabulary learning tasks. The present study, therefore, aimed to examine this issue across four vocabulary learning...

Proposed new signal for real-time stress monitoring: Combination of physiological measures

Human stress is a physiological tension that appears when a person responds to mental, emotional, or physical chal-lenges. Detecting human stress and developing methods to manage it, has become an important issue nowadays. Au-tomatic stress detection through physiological signals may be a useful method for solving this problem. In most of the earlier studies, long-term time window was considere...

Phonological Mean Length of Utterance in 48-60-Month-old Persian-speaking Children with Isfahani Accent: Comparison of Story Generation and Conversation Samples

Objective:Phonological Mean Length of Utterance (PMLU), a quantitative measure for assessment of phonological skills, has been considered in developmental studies as a diagnostic and clinical criterion in phonological development. Moreover, it is an indicator rate of the efficacy of the intervention. The PMLU is a word level measure that can be calculated on the child’s transcribed speech sampl...
