Trapped in a Soundproof Box: How CO2 Levels Influence Speech Quality Assessment and Response Behaviour

This study demonstrates that elevated carbon dioxide levels in soundproof testing booths significantly bias speech quality assessments by reducing response times, compressing rating scales, and decreasing sensitivity to quality differences, thereby highlighting the critical need for controlled ventilation in perceptual experiments to ensure data validity.

Frozen design variables in simulation-based optimization: the cost of an unlocated threshold event

This paper demonstrates that refining a numerical simulator to convergence does not guarantee a usable Jacobian when state-dependent threshold events cause discrete derivatives to fail to converge to their continuous counterparts, resulting in "frozen" design variables that trap optimization algorithms at suboptimal bounds unless specific detection and correction strategies are employed.
