From monkey-like action recognition to human language: an evolutionary framework for neurolinguistics
- BEHAVIORAL AND BRAIN SCIENCES
, 2005
"... The article analyzes the neural and functional grounding of language skills as well as their emergence in hominid evolution, hypothesizing stages leading from abilities known to exist in monkeys and apes and presumed to exist in our hominid ancestors right through to modern spoken and signed languag ..."

EXCLUSION AND ATTENTION TO VOCAL TONE
, 2010
"... Previous research has shown that social exclusion leads to what Baumeister and colleagues called ‘cognitive concussion, ’ a temporary cognitive state that results in suboptimal decisions and judgments. At present, however, not much is known about this interesting phenomenon. In the present work, we ..."

in the inclusion condition. This is consistent with previous research and the hypothesis that social exclusion can lead to a state of ‘emotional numbness ’ or ‘cognitive concussion ’ that would inhibit the ability to process vocal Stroop stimuli.
Automatic classification of animal vocalizations
, 2005
"... At the beginning of the doctoral process, I knew I had two important decisions to make. The first was who would be my research advisor and the second was what would be the topic of my dissertation. I had not spent much time on either decision during my master’s degree, and although I am happy with t ..."

not know at first that the process would also be enjoyable and exciting. After I had picked an advisor, I needed to pick a topic on which to dissertate. A new topic on the leading edge of a research field that I could easily explain to people, mainly my family and friends, would be the ideal. I did
A METHOD OF MORPHING SPECTRAL ENVELOPES OF THE SINGING VOICE FOR USE WITH BACKING VOCALS
"... The voice morphing process presented in this paper is based on the observation that, in many styles of music, it is often desirable for a backing vocalist to blend his or her timbre with that of the lead vocalist when the two voices are singing the same phonetic mate-rial concurrently. This paper pr ..."

proposes a novel application of recent morphing research for use with a source backing vocal and a target lead vocal. The function of the process is to alter the timbre of the backing vocal using spectral envelope information extracted from both vocal signals to achieve varying degrees of blending. Sev
Keywords: Vocal Cord Larynx Paralysis
, 2013
"... Introduction: Vocal cord paralysis is a common symptom of numerous diseases and it may be due to neurogenic or mechanical fixation of the cords. Paralysis of the vocal cords is just a symptom of underlying disease in some cases; so, clinical diagnosis of the underlying cause leading to paralysis of ..."

Separation of vocals from polyphonic audio recordings
- IN: PROC. ISMIR2005. (2005) 337–344
, 2005
"... Source separation techniques like independent component analysis and the more recent non-negative matrix factorization are gaining widespread use for the monaural separation of individual tracks present in a music sample. The underlying principle behind these approaches characterises only stationary ..."

and design a classifier to perform a vocal–nonvocal segmentation task. Finally, we describe an application wherein we try to extract the melody from the separated vocal track using existing monophonic transcription techniques. The experimental work leads us to the conclusion that the quality of vocal source
ORCHIVE: Digitizing and Analyzing Orca Vocalizations
"... This paper describes the process of creating a large digital archive of killer whale or orca vocalizations. The goal of the project is to digitize approximately 20000 hours of existing analog recordings of these vocalizations in order to facilitate access to researchers internationally. We are also ..."

Accuracy in social perception: contributions of facial and vocal information
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 1991
"... The validity of social perceptions was assessed on the basis of facial or vocal information. Specifi-cally, impressions ofstimulus persons ' power and warmth were obtained on the basis of either a facial photograph or a voice recording. These were compared with the stimulus persons ' elf-r ..."

Unpacking "Honesty": Vertebrate Vocal Production and the Evolution of Acoustic Signals

In the first part we surveyed basic principl ..."
