KMSAV: Korean multi‐speaker spontaneous audiovisual dataset
Authors: Park Kiyoung , Oh Changhan , Dong Sunghee 
Published: February 2024

AbstractRecent advances in deep learning for speech and visual recognition have accelerated the development of multimodal speech recognition, yielding many innovative results. We introduce a Korean audiovisual speech recognition corpus. This dataset comprises approximately 150 h of manually transcribed and annotated audiovisual data supplemented with additional 2000 h of untranscribed videos collected from YouTube under the Creative Commons License. The dataset is intended to be freely accessible for unrestricted research purposes. Along with the corpus, we propose an open‐source framework for automatic speech recognition (ASR) and audiovisual speech recognition (AVSR). We validate the effectiveness of the corpus with evaluations using state‐of‐the‐art ASR and AVSR techniques, capitalizing on both pretrained models and fine‐tuning processes. After fine‐tuning, ASR and AVSR achieve character error rates of 11.1% and 18.9%, respectively. This error difference highlights the need for improvement in AVSR techniques. We expect that our corpus will be an instrumental resource to support improvements in AVSR.

Published: February 2024

AbstractThe Korean language has written (formal) and spoken (phonetic) forms that differ in their application, which can lead to confusion, especially when dealing with numbers and embedded Western words and phrases. This fact makes it difficult to automate Korean speech recognition models due to the need for a complete transcription training dataset. Because such datasets are frequently constructed using broadcast audio and their accompanying transcriptions, they do not follow a discrete rule‐based matching pattern. Furthermore, these mismatches are exacerbated over time due to changing tacit policies. To mitigate this problem, we introduce a data‐driven Korean spoken‐to‐written transcription conversion technique that enhances the automatic conversion of numbers and Western phrases to improve automatic translation model performance.
Towards a small language model powered chain‐of‐reasoning for open‐domain question answering
Authors: Roh Jihyeon , Kim Minho , Bae Kyoungman 
Published: February 2024

AbstractWe focus on open‐domain question‐answering tasks that involve a chain‐of‐reasoning, which are primarily implemented using large language models. With an emphasis on cost‐effectiveness, we designedEffiChainQA, an architecture centered on the use of small language models. We employed a retrieval‐based language model to address the limitations of large language models, such as the hallucination issue and the lack of updated knowledge. To enhance reasoning capabilities, we introduced a question decomposer that leverages a generative language model and serves as a key component in the chain‐of‐reasoning process. To generate training data for our question decomposer, we leveraged ChatGPT, which is known for its data augmentation ability. Comprehensive experiments were conducted using the HotpotQA dataset. Our method outperformed several established approaches, including theChain‐of‐Thoughtsapproach, which is based on large language models. Moreover, our results are on par with those of state‐of‐the‐artRetrieve‐then‐Readmethods that utilize large language models.

Effects of the CO-OP Approach in Addressing the Occupational Performance of Adults With Stroke: A Systematic Review
Authors: Kiriakou Antria , Psychouli Pavlina 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Background: Stroke is the third leading cause of permanent disability worldwide. It is associated with difficulties in occupational performance, an area targeted by the Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance (CO-OP).
Objective: To investigate the evidence available for the effectiveness of the CO-OP in addressing adults’ performance of activities of daily living.
Data Sources: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or pilot RCTs of the CO-OP written in English and published through December 2021 were retrieved from PubMed, SCOPUS, ScienceDirect, OTseeker, and EBSCO.
Study Selection and Data Collection: The studies’ participants were adults with stroke, evaluated on occupational performance before and after CO-OP administration. The American Occupational Therapy Association Evidence-Based Practice Project methodology was followed. Quality appraisal was conducted using the Cochrane Collaboration’s Risk of Bias 2 tool.
Results: Four RCTs and 3 pilot RCTs met the inclusion criteria. Inconsistent results are presented for trained and untrained goals, with the last ones being scarcely investigated.
Limitations: The limited number of studies, combined with the methodological limitations observed, did not allow for definite conclusions to be reached.
Conclusions and Relevance: The CO-OP is a promising client-centered, occupation-based approach, but future adequately powered studies addressing the potential for generalization are needed.
Plain-Language Summary: The Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance is a relatively new treatment method that uses cognitive techniques to guide patients into discovering ways to perform activities of daily living independently. This systematic review presents the available evidence regarding CO-OP’s effectiveness when used with adults after stroke. The findings showed that CO-OP has a positive impact in this population, but further research is needed to reach more concrete conclusions. Stroke patients may benefit from CO-OP because it can be a cost-effective, short-duration, task-oriented treatment.

Abstract. New particle formation (NPF) plays a crucial role in the atmospheric aerosol population and has significant implications on climate dynamics, particularly in climate-sensitive zones such as the Tibetan Plateau (TP). However, our understanding of NPF on the TP is still limited due to a lack of comprehensive measurements and verified model simulations. To fill this knowledge gap, we conducted an integrated study combining comprehensive field measurements and chemical transport modeling to investigate NPF events on the southeastern TP during the pre-monsoon season. NPF was observed to occur frequently on clear-sky days on the southeastern TP, contributing significantly to the cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) budget in this region. The observational evidence suggests that highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOMs) from monoterpene oxidation participate in the nucleation on the southeastern TP. After updating the monoterpene oxidation chemistry and nucleation schemes in the meteorology–chemistry model, the model well reproduces observed NPF and reveals an extensive occurrence of NPF across the southeastern TP. The dominant nucleation mechanism is the synergistic nucleation of sulfuric acid, ammonia, and HOMs, driven by the transport of anthropogenic precursors from South Asia and the presence of abundant biogenic gases. By investigating the vertical distribution of NPF, we find a significant influence of vertical transport on the southeastern TP. More specifically, strong nucleation near the surface leads to an intense formation of small particles, which are subsequently transported upward. These particles experience enhanced growth to larger sizes in the upper planetary boundary layer (PBL) due to favorable conditions such as lower temperatures and a reduced condensation sink. As the PBL evolves, the particles in larger sizes are brought back to the ground, resulting in a pronounced increase in near-surface particle concentrations. This study highlights the important roles of anthropogenic–biogenic interactions and meteorological dynamics in NPF on the southeastern TP.
Brief communication: On the environmental impacts of the 2023 floods in Emilia-Romagna (Italy)
Authors: Arrighi Chiara , Domeneghetti Alessio 
Published: February 2024

Abstract. The impacts of floods on environmental assets are often not assessed. In this communication, we reflect on this issue by analysing the reported environmental consequences of the 2023 Emilia-Romagna floods. The information on the environmental impacts is constructed by collecting data from reports, press releases, and interviews in the aftermath of the events. The most frequently reported damage involves water resources and water-related ecosystems, with cultural and supporting ecosystem services particularly affected. Indirect effects in time and space, intrinsic recovery capacity, cascade impacts on socio-economic systems, and the lack of established monitoring activities appear to be the most challenging aspects for future research.

Abstract. The hydrography of the Arctic Ocean has experienced profound changes over the last 2 decades. The sea ice extent has declined by more than 10 % per decade, and its liquid freshwater content has increased mainly due to glaciers and sea ice melting. Further, new satellite retrievals of sea surface salinity (SSS) in the Arctic might contribute to better characterizing the freshwater changes in cold regions. Ocean salinity and freshwater content are intimately related such that an increase (decrease) in one entails a decrease (increase) in the other. In this work, we evaluate the freshwater content in the Beaufort Gyre using surface salinity measurements from the satellite radiometric mission Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) and TOPAZ4b reanalysis salinity at depth, estimating the freshwater content from 2011 to 2019 and validating the results with in situ measurements. The results highlight the underestimation of the freshwater content using reanalysis data in the Beaufort Sea and a clear improvement in the freshwater content estimation when adding satellite sea surface salinity measurements in the mixed layer. The improvements are significant, with up to a 70 % reduction in bias in areas near the ice melting. Our research demonstrates how remotely sensed salinity can assist us in better monitoring the changes in the Arctic freshwater content and understanding key processes related to salinity variations that cause density differences with potential to influence the global circulation system that regulates Earth's climate.

NEOLIBERALISME DAN DAMPAKNYA BAGI PENDIDIKAN INDONESIA: SEBUAH REFLEKSI
Authors: Salim Agus , Manubey Johana , Kuswandi Dedi 
Published: February 2024

Dalam konteks pendidikan Indonesia, ideologi neoliberalisme ini tercermin dalam meningkatnya peran lembaga pendidikan swasta, komersialisasi pendidikan, dan peningkatan biaya pendidikan. Akibatnya memberikan dampak negatif seperti ketidaksetaraan akses, penurunan mutu pendidikan, dan pengaruh globalisasi yang mengancam identitas budaya lokal. Penelitian ini menggunakan kajian literatur untuk mendalami pengaruh neoliberalisme terhadap sistem pendidikan di Indonesia. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui jurnal ilmiah, kemudian dianalisis dan dibahas secara deduktif-induktif. Neoliberalisme, sebagai ideologi ekonomi, memperjuangkan kebebasan pasar, privatisasi, dan deregulasi, memberikan dampak terhadap pendidikan baik secara global, termasuk di Indonesia. Hasil analisis literatur ditemukan bahwa neoliberalisme mendorong pada marktetisasi pendidikan, privatisasi pendidikan, deregulasi, dan kompetesi. Neoliberalisme mendorong terjadinya kesenjangan sosial masyarakat, dimana masyakarakat yang kaya dapat mengkases pendidikan terbaik, sedangkan yang miskin sebaliknya. Untuk dapat menghadapi neoliberalisme dan memberikan akses pendidikan yang layak bagi masyarakat, pemerintah perlu untuk; pertama, meningkatkan pengawasan dalam pendidikan. Kedua, peninjauan ulang terhadap kurikulum untuk mencakup nilai-nilai lokal, mempromosikan pluralisme budaya, dan mempersiapkan siswa untuk tantangan global. Ketiga, menyelenggarakan pendidikan yang holistik-inklusif. Keempat, melibatkan masyarakat secara aktif dalam perencanaan dan pengambilan keputusan pendidikan. Dengan langkah-langkah ini, pendidikan Indonesia dapat menemukan keseimbangan yang tepat antara mengikuti prinsip neoliberalisme yang memungkinkan inovasi dan efisiensi, dan tetap mempertahankan nilai-nilai intrinsik dan memberikan akses pendidikan yang setara.
