With the advancement of global warming, Arctic sea routes (ASRs) may open for entire year. The ASRs will be far more competitive than they are now, and major international in future. To date, most studies have researched economic feasibility short term from a company’s perspective. help to plan shipping market future, we developed three-stage model simulate trade demand long term. This firstly ...

This study focuses on learning in three different hypermedia environments that either support autonomous learning, learner-controlled learning or system-controlled learning and explores the mediating role of academic self-regulation style ( ASRS; i.e., a macro level of motivation) on learning. This to gain more insight in the conditions under which learning in hypermedia environments is effecti...

1. MOTIVATION • Human listeners are much better at recognizing speech in noise than automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems – Understanding why could directly improve ASR noise robustness • We utilize the recently introduced “auditory bubbles” technique to compare the cues used by humans and ASRs (Mandel, 2013; Mandel et al., 2014) 1. Measure the intelligibility to listeners of the same spee...
