Autism as a disorder of neural information processing: directions for research and targets for therapy [PDF]
The broad variation in phenotypes and severities within autism spectrum disorders suggests the involvement of multiple predisposing factors, interacting in complex ways with normal developmental courses and gradients. Identification of these factors, and

Learning and adaptation in speech production without a vocal tract [PDF]
How is the complex audiomotor skill of speaking learned? To what extent does it depend on the specific characteristics of the vocal tract? Here, we developed a touchscreen-based speech synthesizer to examine learning of speech production independent of ...

Human Echolocation in Static Situations: Auditory Models of Detection Thresholds for Distance, Pitch, Loudness and Timbre [PDF]
We investigated, by using auditory models, how three perceptual parameters, loudness, pitch and sharpness, determine human echolocation. We used acoustic recordings from two previous studies, both from stationary situations, and their resulting perceptual data as input to our analysis.

Ways of Listening and Modes of Being: Electroacoustic Auditory Display [PDF]
Auditory display is concerned with the use of non-speech sound to communicate information. If the term seems at first oxymoronic, then consider auditory display as an activity of perceptualization, that is, the process of making perceptible to humans aspects or features of a given data set or system.

Neural synchrony in cortical networks : history, concept and current status [PDF]
Following the discovery of context-dependent synchronization of oscillatory neuronal responses in the visual system, the role of neural synchrony in cortical networks has been expanded to provide a general mechanism for the coordination of distributed ...

While evolutionary cortical expansion is thought to underlie the evolution of human cognitive capabilities, excessive developmental expansion can lead to megalencephaly, often found in neurodevelopmental disorders.

Towards Robust Assessment of Pathological Voices via Combined Low-Level Descriptors and Foundation Model Representations [PDF]
Perceptual voice quality assessment is essential for diagnosing and monitoring voice disorders by providing standardized evaluations of vocal function. Traditionally, expert raters use standard scales such as the Consensus Auditory-Perceptual Evaluation of Voice (CAPE-V) and Grade, Roughness, Breathiness, Asthenia, and Strain (GRBAS).
