Are We In The Digital Dark Times? How The Philosophy Of Hannah Arendt Can Illuminate Some Of The Ethical Dilemmas Posed By Modern Digital Technologies, Damian Gordon, Anna Becevel Jan 2021

Are We In The Digital Dark Times? How The Philosophy Of Hannah Arendt Can Illuminate Some Of The Ethical Dilemmas Posed By Modern Digital Technologies, Damian Gordon, Anna Becevel

Conference Papers

Philosophers are not generally credited with being clairvoyant, and yet because they recognise, record and reflect on trends in their society, their observations can often appear prescient. In the field of the ethics of technology, there is, perhaps, no philosopher whose perspective on these issues is worth examining in detail more than that of Hannah Arendt, who can offer real perspective on the challenges we are facing with technologies in the twenty-first century. Arendt, a thinker of Jewish-German origin, student of Martin Heidegger and Karl Jaspers, encountered her life turning point when she was forced into becoming a refugee as …

An Improved Version Of Multi-View K-Nearest Neighbors (Mvknn) For Multipleview Learning, Eli̇fe Öztürk Kiyak, Derya Bi̇rant, Kökten Ulaş Bi̇rant

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Multi-view learning (MVL) is a special type of machine learning that utilizes more than one views, where views include various descriptions of a given sample. Traditionally, classification algorithms such as k-nearest neighbors (KNN) are designed for learning from single-view data. However, many real-world applications involve datasets with multiple views and each view may contain different and partly independent information, which makes the traditional single-view classification approaches ineffective. Therefore, this article proposes an improved MVL algorithm, called multi-view k-nearest neighbors (MVKNN), based on the existing KNN algorithm. The experimental results conducted in this research show that a significant improvement is achieved …

Spectral And Latent Representation Distortion For Tts Evaluation, Thananchai Kongthaworn Jan 2021

Spectral And Latent Representation Distortion For Tts Evaluation, Thananchai Kongthaworn

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

One of the main problems in the development of text-to-speech (TTS) systems is its reliance on subjective measures, typically the Mean Opinion Score (MOS). MOS requires a large number of people to reliably rate each utterance, making the development process slow and expensive. Recent research on speech quality assessment tends to focus on training models to estimate MOS, which requires a large number of training data, something that might not be available in low-resource languages. We propose an objective assessment metric based on the DTW distance using the spectrogram and the high-level features from an Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) model …
