“…Deviation of 1:1 ratio between male and female was evaluated by using a Chi-square test with significance at p < 0.05 (Fowler & Cohen, 1992). Gonad maturity stage was determined macroscopically based on size, color and texture according to Effendie (2002) (Table 1).…”

This research was conducted at Langgur City, Southeast Maluku Regency, Maluku Province, Eastern Indonesia from November 2020 to February 2021 to study biological aspects of roundscads (Decapterus spp.) which consist of species composition, sex ratio, gonad maturation level, size distribution, length-weight relationship and condition factor. Samples were collected at traditional fish market in Langgur City. Fish samples collected at the market were put into cool box and then brought to the laboratory for further examination. Fish samples were identified, separated based on species, dissected to determine their sex and gonad maturation stage and then measured. Totally, there were 290 specimen collected which consist of five species namely Decapterus kurroides, D. macarellus, D. macrosoma, D. muroadsi and D. russelli. Sex ratio between male and female for all species showed 1:1. Gonad maturation level showed that stage I and II have higher percentage than stage III and IV indicates immature fish more dominant compare to mature one. Among five species found, D. macarellus has larger size while the smaller belongs to D. muroadsi. Results of length-weight relationship analysis showed that roundscads inhabiting Southeast Maluku waters have isometric and negative allometric growth pattern with relative condition factor around 1.00.

“…The strength of the correlations was classed as: 0.00-0.19 'very weak'; 0.20-0.39 'weak'; 0.40-0.59 'moderate', 0.60-0.79 'strong'; and 0.80-1.0 'very strong'. 19 Our sample was powered to detect a correlation of r: 0.1489 at 80 % power and 0.05 significance level. Secondly, we used Kappa statistics to assess the ability of parent reports to place individuals in tertiles of habitual TPA measured by accelerometry: strength of agreement was classified using Landis and Koch: <0.00 'poor agreement'; 0.00-0.20 'slight agreement'; 0.21-0.40 'fair agreement'; 0.41-0.60 'moderate agreement'; 0.61-0.80 'substantial agreement'; and 0.81-1.00 'almost perfect agreement'.…”

“…Concerning the Spearman's 𝜌 correlation coefficient, the 𝑝-value between SS similarity MOS and the amount of training recordings is about 0.40, which indicates that there was a moderate positive correlation [6] between these two variables (𝑝 = 0.002, 𝑛 = 57). Differently, the 𝑝-value for the Spearman's correlation between same gender similarity MOS and the amount of training data synthesised was above the significance level of 0.05, which indicates that the correlation coefficient was not significant (𝑟 𝑠 = 0.22, 𝑛 = 56, 𝑝 = 0.08).…”

Text-to-Speech (TTS) synthesizer has to generate intelligible and natural speech while modeling linguistic and paralinguistic components characterizing human voice. In this work, we present ITAcotron 2, an Italian TTS synthesizer able to generate speech in several voices. In its development, we explored the power of transfer learning by iteratively fine-tuning an English Tacotron 2 spectrogram predictor on different Italian data sets. Moreover, we introduced a conditioning strategy to enable ITAcotron 2 to generate new speech in the voice of a variety of speakers. To do so, we examined the zero-shot behaviour of a speaker encoder architecture, previously trained to accomplish a speaker verification task with English speakers, to represent Italian speakers' voiceprints. We asked 70 volunteers to evaluate intelligibility, naturalness, and similarity between synthesised voices and real speech from target speakers. Our model achieved a MOS score of 4.15 in intelligibility, 3.32 in naturalness, and 3.45 in speaker similarity. These results showed the successful adaptation of the refined system to the new language and its ability to synthesize novel speech in the voice of several speakers.
