The integration hypothesis of human language evolution and the nature of contemporary languages [PDF]

, 2014
How human language arose is a mystery in the evolution of Homo sapiens. Miyagawa et al. (2013) put forward a proposal, which we will call the Integration Hypothesis of human language evolution, that holds that human language is composed of two components,

Bird detection in audio : a survey and a challenge [PDF]

, 2016
Many biological monitoring projects rely on acoustic detection of birds. Despite increasingly large datasets, this detection is often manual or semi-automatic, requiring manual tuning/postprocessing. We review the state of the art in automatic bird sound

The Role of Language Dominance in Congruency Effects on Multi‐Word Unit Processing: Evidence From Early Bilinguals

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how the learner‐related factors of language dominance, encompassing language history, proficiency, use, and attitude, modulate congruency effects in multi‐word unit (MWU) processing among early bilinguals. Seventy Cantonese–Putonghua bilinguals completed lexical decision tasks measuring reaction time and accuracy for ...

Inquiry and Logical Form

Philosophical Perspectives, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Joint inquiry requires agents to exchange public content about some target domain, which in turn requires them to track which content a linguistic form contributes to a conversation. But, often, the inquiry delivers a necessary truth. For example, if we are inquiring whether a particular bird, Tweety, is a woodpecker, and discover that it is ...

Multimedia signal processing for behavioral quantification in neuroscience [PDF]

, 2006
While there have been great advances in quantification of the genotype of organisms, including full genomes for many species, the quantification of phenotype is at a comparatively primitive stage. Part of the reason is technical difficulty: the phenotype

Melodies of the forest: Nature as an improvisational space for shared creative embodiment

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 871-885, April 2026.
Abstract In an era marked by increasing disconnection from nature, innovative approaches to reconnect with the environment are crucial for both ecological and psychological well‐being. This paper explores how natural environments (a deciduous forest of Quebec in the present case study) can serve as an improvisational space for shared creative ...
