Mirror neurons, birdsong and human language: a hypothesis [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2012 The Mirror System Hypothesis (MSH) and investigations of birdsong are reviewed in relation to the significance for the development of human symbolic and language capacity, in terms of three fundamental forms of cognitive reference: iconic, indexical, and

A hierarchical birdsong feature extraction architecture combining static and dynamic modeling
Ecological Indicators, 2023 To conserve bird biodiversity and monitor the distribution of species in the region, it is of tremendous necessity to identify birds by their songs and explore the rich ecological information birdsong contains.

NIPS4Bplus: a richly annotated birdsong audio dataset [PDF]
PeerJ Computer Science, 2019 Recent advances in birdsong detection and classification have approached a limit due to the lack of fully annotated recordings. In this paper, we present NIPS4Bplus, the first richly annotated birdsong audio dataset, that is comprised of recordings ...

Subjective Preferences for Birdsong and Insect Song in Equal Sound Pressure Level
Applied Sciences, 2020 Birdsong is used as a sound signal for visually impaired people in train stations in Japan. However, such sound signals were reportedly difficult to be localized by over 40% of visually impaired people.

A hierarchical neuronal model for generation and online recognition of birdsongs. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2011 The neuronal system underlying learning, generation and recognition of song in birds is one of the best-studied systems in the neurosciences. Here, we use these experimental findings to derive a neurobiologically plausible, dynamic, hierarchical model of

Birdsongs alleviate anxiety and paranoia in healthy participants
Scientific Reports, 2022 The present study investigated the effect of urban (traffic noise) vs. natural (birdsongs) soundscapes on mood, state paranoia, and cognitive performance, hypothesizing that birdsongs lead to significant improvements in these outcomes. An additional goal

“Hearken to the Hermit-Thrush”1: A Case Study in Interdisciplinary Listening
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Birdsong is widely analysed and discussed by people coming from both musical and scientific backgrounds. Both approaches provide valuable insight, but I argue that it is only through combining musical and scientific points of view, as well as ...
