Just-Noticeable Differences of Fundamental Frequency Change in Mandarin-Speaking Children with Cochlear Implants [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2022 Fundamental frequency (F0) provides the primary acoustic cue for lexical tone perception in tonal languages but remains poorly represented in cochlear implant (CI) systems.

The neural response at the fundamental frequency of speech is modulated by word-level acoustic and linguistic information [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Spoken language comprehension requires rapid and continuous integration of information, from lower-level acoustic to higher-level linguistic features. Much of this processing occurs in the cerebral cortex.

Effect of lowest harmonic rank on fundamental-frequency difference limens varies with fundamental frequency [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020 This study investigated the relationship between fundamental frequency difference limens (F0DLs) and the lowest harmonic number present over a wide range of F0s (30–2000 Hz) for 12-component harmonic complex tones that were presented in either sine or random phase. For fundamental frequencies (F0s) between 100 and 400 Hz, a transition from low (∼1%) to

Method of estimation of frequency variation relying on estimation of shift of spectral peaks
Системный анализ и прикладная информатика, 2021 Problem of estimation of variated frequency of components of polyharmonic signals has been arose. Three-dimensional time-frequency representation of signals is usually used to resolve this problem.

Fundamental frequency and vowel perception [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1981 The set of nine nondiphthong vowels of American English were synthesized using the male formant values from Peterson and Barney [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 24, 175–184 (1952)]. These vowels were produced in three conditions of the fundamental frequency: (1) average 135 Hz, (2) low 100 Hz, and (3) high 250 Hz.
