Abstract Prior studies have reported mixed findings on the impact of corporate information technology (IT) investment firm performance. This study investigates effect governance, an important management control mechanism, relation between IT and performance in Taiwanese electronics industry. Specifically, we explore board independence foreign ownership, which increasingly become salient factors concerning governance emerging markets. We address their roles across firms different sizes...

We introduce fairseq S2T, a extension for speech-to-text (S2T) modeling tasks such as end-to-end speech recognition and translation. It follows fairseq's careful design scalability extensibility. provide workflows from data pre-processing, model training to offline (online) inference. implement state-of-the-art RNN-based, Transformer-based well Conformer-based models open-source detailed recipes. Fairseq's machine translation language can be seamlessly integrated into S2T multi-task learning...

Abstract Research Summary We add to the literature examining ownership‐innovation relationship by two major investor types: corporate investors and family investors. use organizational environmental scanning as a new perspective understand how these investors' capabilities influence firms' external cooperation innovation performance. found that with broad investment experience strengthen firm's scanning, enhancing performance increasing number of activities firm engages in. Conversely, tend...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to first examine whether intellectual capital (IC) information considered in firm valuation. Next, two issues: financial analysts' investment recommendations when faced with different combinations performance levels (i.e. above or below industry average) and IC measures, the role measures holding periods short‐term vs long‐term) for on recommendations. Design/methodology/approach part used secondary (both archival survey) data. second was an experiment....

ABSTRACT This research experimentally examines the favorable/unfavorable outcomes of a firm's financial and nonfinancial performance measures on analysts' recommendation to divest or invest in firm. The participants were analysts who made recommendations ranging from “definitely sell” “hold” buy.” results show that their favorableness have an interactive impact recommendations. To be precise, very close anchor when was unfavorable, irrespective whether presented nonfinancial. Further,...

Speech translation has recently become an increasingly popular topic of research, partly due to the development benchmark datasets. Nevertheless, current datasets cover a limited number languages. With aim foster research in massive multilingual speech and for low resource language pairs, we release CoVoST 2, large-scale corpus covering translations from 21 languages into English 15 This represents largest open dataset available date total volume coverage perspective. Data sanity checks...

Purpose The paper aims to discuss how integrate the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) with intellectual capital (IC); and handle issues of creation, formation, measurement, reporting even management strategic (SIC). Design/methodology/approach adopts a case study illustrate integration between BSC IC, significant related SIC. company is car dealership in Taiwan, which one largest automobile dealerships Taiwan. In addition, according firm's philosophy, treats customers as bosses employees precious...

This study explores the extent to which an article's value or contribution can be proxied by ranking of journal in it is published. Following approach commonly applied prior studies, we obtained eight-year citation counts for all articles published 1992, 1994, 1996, and 1997 nine accounting journals covered Social Science Citation Index®. For these four years combined as well individually, found that from most often considered top three (Journal Accounting Economics, Journal Research, The...

ABSTRACT We examine how employees respond to bonuses and penalties using a proprietary dataset from an electronic chip manufacturer in China. First, we the relative effects of observe stronger effect on subsequent effort performance for than bonuses. Second, find that marginal sensitivity diminishes faster bonuses, indicating bonus may eventually exceed penalty as their value increases. Third, undesirable selection penalties: increase employee turnover, especially skillful high-quality...

Spoken language translation has recently witnessed a resurgence in popularity, thanks to the development of end-to-end models and creation new corpora, such as Augmented LibriSpeech MuST-C. Existing datasets involve pairs with English source language, very specific domains or are low resource. We introduce CoVoST, multilingual speech-to-text corpus from 11 languages into English, diversified over 11,000 speakers 60 accents. describe dataset methodology provide empirical evidence quality...
