SE UNA SPEZIA SI FA MOTORE DELLA STORIA

RiCognizioni, 2023
Lunedì 23 ottobre, il primo incontro del ciclo di lezioni tenuto da Amitav Ghosh si apre in una sala lauree gremita e avvolta da un grande senso di anticipazione.

An Adapting Auditory-motor Feedback Loop Can Contribute to Generating Vocal Repetition.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2015
Consecutive repetition of actions is common in behavioral sequences. Although integration of sensory feedback with internal motor programs is important for sequence generation, if and how feedback contributes to repetitive actions is poorly understood ...

Syringeal specialization of frequency control during song production in the Bengalese finch (Lonchura striata domestica). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundSinging in songbirds is a complex, learned behavior which shares many parallels with human speech. The avian vocal organ (syrinx) has two potential sound sources, and each sound generator is under unilateral, ipsilateral neural control ...

Long Memory in Song Learning by Zebra Finches [PDF]

, 2003
Young songbirds use memorized tutor songs as templates to shape their own songs. This process requires control of voice by auditory feedback. We prevented zebra finches from hearing their own vocalizations by exposure to loud noise after 35 d of age ...

Myomatrix arrays for high-definition muscle recording

eLife, 2023
Neurons coordinate their activity to produce an astonishing variety of motor behaviors. Our present understanding of motor control has grown rapidly thanks to new methods for recording and analyzing populations of many individual neurons over time.

Animal vocal sequences: not the Markov chains we thought they were. [PDF]

, 2014
Many animals produce vocal sequences that appear complex. Most researchers assume that these sequences are well characterized as Markov chains (i.e. that the probability of a particular vocal element can be calculated from the history of only a finite ...

Unsupervised Bayesian Ising Approximation for decoding neural activity and other biological dictionaries

eLife, 2022
The problem of deciphering how low-level patterns (action potentials in the brain, amino acids in a protein, etc.) drive high-level biological features (sensorimotor behavior, enzymatic function) represents the central challenge of quantitative biology ...

Self domestication and the evolution of language [PDF]

, 2018
We set out an account of how self-domestication plays a crucial role in the evolution of language. In doing so, we focus on the growing body of work that treats language structure as emerging from the process ofcultural transmission. We argue that a full

A hypothesis on improving foreign accents by optimizing variability in vocal learning brain circuits [PDF]

, 2015
Rapid vocal motor learning is observed when acquiring a language in early childhood, or learning to speak another language later in life. Accurate pronunciation is one of the hardest things for late learners to master and they are almost always left with
