Speech characteristics of monozygotic twins and a same-sex sibling: an acoustic case study of coarticulation patterns in read speech [PDF]
, 2003 This case study reports on an acoustic investigation of the motor speech characteristics of a set of young adult male monozygotic (MZ) twins and compares them to those of an age- and sex-matched sibling who participated in the study 2 years later to ...

Low frequency groans indicate larger and more dominant fallow deer (Dama dama) males. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 BACKGROUND: Models of honest advertisement predict that sexually selected calls should signal male quality. In most vertebrates, high quality males have larger body sizes that determine higher social status and in turn higher reproductive success ...

Reducing Audible Spectral Discontinuities [PDF]
, 2001 In this paper, a common problem in diphone synthesis is discussed, viz., the occurrence of audible discontinuities at diphone boundaries. Informal observations show that spectral mismatch is most likely the cause of this phenomenon.We first set out to ...

Speaker Normalization Using Cortical Strip Maps: A Neural Model for Steady State Vowel Identification [PDF]
, 2007 Auditory signals of speech are speaker-dependent, but representations of language meaning are speaker-independent. Such a transformation enables speech to be understood from different speakers.

Acoustic cues for the recognition of self-voice and other-voice
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 Self-recognition, being indispensable for successful social communication, has become a major focus in current social neuroscience. The physical aspects of the self are most typically manifested in the face and voice.
