An exploratory study of imagining sounds and “hearing” music in autism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) reportedly possess preserved or superior music-processing skills compared to their typically developing counterparts. We examined auditory imagery and earworms (tunes that get “stuck” in the head) in adults

Music proficiency and quantification of absolute pitch: a large-scale study among Brazilian musicians

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2016
Absolute pitch (AP) is the ability to identify and name the pitch of a sound without external reference. Often, accuracy and speed at naming isolated musical pitches are correlated with demographic, biological and acoustical parameters to gain insight ...

Training pitch discrimination using colors

open access: yesJournal of Vision, 2022
Synesthesia is a neurological phenomenon by which sensory information are associated to a secondary sensory experience, such as music having color. According to the Developmental Learning Hypothesis (Watson et al., 2010; 2014), synesthesia arises from the need to overcome difficulty in acquiring certain types of information, such as grapheme in the ...

Pitch perception and production in congenital amusia: evidence from Cantonese speakers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This study investigated pitch perception and production in speech and music in individuals with congenital amusia (a disorder of musical pitch processing) who are native speakers of Cantonese, a tone language with a highly complex tonal system.

Pitch Perception in the First Year of Life, a Comparison of Lexical Tones and Musical Pitch

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
Pitch variation is pervasive in speech, regardless of the language to which infants are exposed. Lexical tone is influenced by general sensitivity to pitch.

Meniscus Pixel Printing for Contact‐Lens Vision Sensing and Robotic Control

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A visual‐sensing contact lens is enabled by meniscus pixel printing (MPP), which rapidly patterns a 200 µm perovskite photodetector pixel in 1 s without masks, vacuum processing, or bulky equipment. A deep‐learning‐based super‐resolution reconstructs sparse on‐lens signals into 80 × 80 high‐resolution visual information, while AI‐driven eye‐tracking ...

Computer-based musical interval training program for Cochlear implant users and listeners with no known hearing loss

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
A musical interval is the difference in pitch between two sounds. The way that musical intervals are used in melodies relative to the tonal center of a key can strongly affect the emotion conveyed by the melody.

Amyloidogenic Peptide Fragments Designed From Bacterial Collagen‐like Proteins Form Hydrogel

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study identified amyloidogenic sequence motifs in bacterial collagen‐like proteins and exploited these to design peptides that self‐assemble into β‐sheet fibers and form hydrogels. One hydrogel supported healthy fibroblast growth, showing promise for biocompatible materials. Our work demonstrates that bacterial sequences can be harnessed to create

Perceptual learning of pitch provided by cochlear implant stimulation rate.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Cochlear implant users hear pitch evoked by stimulation rate, but discrimination diminishes for rates above 300 Hz. This upper limit on rate pitch is surprising given the remarkable and specialized ability of the auditory nerve to respond synchronously ...

On Sex-Related Differences in Auditory and Visual Sensory Functioning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The present study was designed to elucidate sex-related differences in two basic auditory and one basic visual aspect of sensory functioning, namely sensory discrimination of pitch, loudness, and brightness.
