A new demand has arisen that has changed the channels of cinematographic exploitation and has allowed the growth of new business initiatives, such as new business models for distributing audiovisual content. The central aim of this paper is to analyse this new business model and to identify the main characteristics of the pioneering company in this sector, Netflix.展开更多

Without sophisticated and flexible perceptual capabilities, it is impossible to create advanced artificial intelligence (AI) systems. For the next-generation AI, called 'AI 2.0', one of the most significant features will be that AI is empowered with intelligent perceptual capabilities, which can simulate human brain's mechanisms and are likely to surpass human brain in terms of performance. In this paper, we briefly review the state-of-the-art advances across different areas of perception, including visual perception, auditory perception, speech perception, and perceptual information processing and learning engines. On this basis, we envision several R&D trends in intelligent perception for the forthcoming era of AI 2.0, including: (1) human-like and transhuman active vision; (2) auditory perception and computation in an actual auditory setting; (3) speech perception and computation in a natural interaction setting; (4) autonomous learning of perceptual information; (5) large-scale perceptual information processing and learning platforms; and (6) urban omnidirectional intelligent perception and reasoning engines. We believe these research directions should be highlighted in the future plans for AI 2.0.展开更多
本研究以142名英语专业学生为对象,探讨了元语篇对听力理解的作用。全体学生分为两组,分别听同一个TEM8(Test for English Majors-Grade 8)微型学术讲座的不同版本(含元语篇和不含元语篇)并完成相同的任务和问卷调查。研究结果表明:1)...本研究以142名英语专业学生为对象,探讨了元语篇对听力理解的作用。全体学生分为两组,分别听同一个TEM8(Test for English Majors-Grade 8)微型学术讲座的不同版本(含元语篇和不含元语篇)并完成相同的任务和问卷调查。研究结果表明:1)两组学生听力理解率差异达显著水平;2)元语篇能辅助话题熟悉程度提高听力理解率;3)元语篇对不同语言水平学生提高听力理解率的贡献有差异;4)学生能无意识感知讲座中元语篇的有无并据此判断讲座质量的优劣。以上结果对外语教学的启示意义在于:语篇理解过程中,篇章组织的相关知识与背景知识同样重要;由于语篇理解受多个变量的影响,仅元语篇的出现并不一定总能保证好的理解效果。因此,教学中在重视对学生进行语言形式和语言意义训练的同时,更应注重对其逻辑思维以及综合素质的训练。展开更多

Such a phenomenon in English, German, Spanish and so on has been researched, but in Chinese it has not been reported yet. In our experiment, 14 syllables (/ba, bi, bian, biao, bin, de, di, dian, duo, dong, gai, gan, gen, gu/), extracted from Chinese audiovisual bimodal speech database CAVSR-1.0, were pronounced by 10 subjects. The audio-only stimuli, audiovisual stimuli, and visual-only stimuli were recognized by 20 observers. The audio-only stimuli and audiovisual stimuli both were presented under 5 conditions: no noise, SNR 0 dB, -8 dB, -12 dB, and -16 dB. The experimental result is studied and the following conclusions for Chinese speech are reached. Human beings can recognize visual-only stimuli rather well. The place of articulation determines the visual distinction. In noisy environment, audio information can remarkably be compensated by visual information and as a result the recognition performance is greatly improved.展开更多
