Exploring the Potential Role of Generative AI in the TRAPD Procedure for Survey Translation

[Submitted on 18 Nov 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled Exploring the Potential Role of Generative AI in the TRAPD Procedure for Survey Translation, by Erica Ann Metheney and Lauren Yehle View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:This paper explores and assesses in what ways generative AI can assist in translating survey instruments. Writing effective survey questions is a challenging and complex task, made even more difficult for surveys that will be translated and deployed in multiple linguistic and cultural settings. Translation errors can be detrimental, with known errors rendering data unusable for its intended purpose and undetected errors leading…

‘Hatsune Miku has a special part in my heart’: the 16-year-old pop sensation who does not exist

Countless flowing green wigs risked spontaneous combustion on a 36-degree Melbourne evening as thousands of J-pop fans queued outside John Cain Arena on Friday night. But the heat was irrelevant to the night’s headline pop attraction, Hatsune Miku. She can’t sweat because she’s a digital animation – a 16-year-old “Vocaloid” virtual pop-star on her first Australian tour.Miku, as she’s known to fans, is a 157cm-tall avatar of a teenage girl with green pigtails. She represents a digital bank of vocal samples created by the ominous-sounding Crypton Future Media using Yamaha’s Vocaloid voice synthesiser technology. Users input lyrics and melodies which…

NVIDIA’s new AI model Fugatto can create audio from text prompts

NVIDIA’s new AI model Fugatto can create audio from text prompts

NVIDIA has debuted a new experimental generative AI model, which it describes as "a Swiss Army knife for sound." The model called Foundational Generative Audio Transformer Opus 1, or Fugatto, can take commands from text prompts and use them to create audio or to modify existing music, voice and sound files. It was designed by a team of AI researchers from around the world, and NVIDIA says that made the model's "multi-accent and multilingual capabilities stronger.""We wanted to create a model that understands and generates sound like humans do," said Rafael Valle, one of the researchers behind the project and…
