What is that I hear? An interdisciplinary review and research agenda for non‐native accents in the workplace by Hideg, I, Shen, W, Hancock, S

“…Second, we organize and integrate extant research findings using a 2 × 2 framework that incorporates the two main theoretical perspectives used to explain the effects of accents—stereotypes and processing fluency—and the two primary categories of workplace outcomes examined—interpersonal (i.e., others' evaluations of speakers with non-native accents, such as hiring recommendations) and intrapersonal (i.e., non-native-accented speakers' own evaluations and experiences, such as sense of belonging). To facilitate future research, we end by articulating a research agenda including theoretical and methodological expansions related to the study of accents, identifying critical moderators, adopting an intersectional approach, and studying group-level and potential positive effects of speaking with non-native accents.…”

2D human pose estimation in TV shows by Ferrari, V, Marín-Jiménez, M, Zisserman, A

The history of Koi aquaculture in Singapore from 1965 to the present : translating translocated scientific knowledge from Japan into biosecurity by Tan, Delfinn Sweimay

“…The protocol was then transferred to Singapore and officials used a militarized concept of disease to translate the protocol into biosecurity regulations. This facilitated the formation of new koi-cultivation practices in the form of strict quarantine and certification measures that impacted farm practices and eventually the ornamental fish aquaculture industry in general. …”

The emergence of compositional grammars in artificial codes by Hong, Fuhai, Lim, Wooyoung, Zhao, Xiaojian

“…We find strong evidence from the laboratory for the emergence of compositional grammars in the subjects' common codes that facilitate learning efficiency. Moreover, when there is a scarcity of symbols in the repertoire, a few groups in our experiments developed languages with positional compositionality, meaning the same symbol has different interpretations depending on its position in a string, whereas some other groups developed language structures that are not compositional but still efficient in communication.…”
