Universal and Language-Specific Influences on Emotional Prosody Production

Liquan Liu, Wei Dong, Kate M. King, John Marasco et autres

Emotional prosody is a core channel of human communication, yet the extent to which its expression is universal or shaped by language-specific constraints remains debated. While non-tonal languages such as English can freely use pitch for affective modulation, tonal languages like Mandarin …

Stiffness optimization of electric spindle performance based on multi-layer perceptron integrated Bayesian

Xiaowei Dong, Feng Sun, Ye Li, Guang Yang et autres

The performance optimization of electric spindles is critical for enhancing machining accuracy and efficiency. Traditional methods often struggle with high-dimensional parameter spaces and complex nonlinear behavior. This paper proposes a novel hybrid approach integrating a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) with Bayesian Optimization (BO) …

Monolingual, Non-tone Bilingual, and Tone Bilingual Infants: Language Experiences Alter Speech and Nonspeech Perception

Liquan Liu, Varghese Peter, Zhen Zeng, Gabrielle Weidemann

Studies on first-year infants' pitch perception have witnessed shifts of perceptual focus from acoustic to linguistic information and from a wide range of contrasts to those relevant to their native language. Nevertheless, how linguistic experience interacts with this developmental process remains an …
