Dissociation of tone merger and congenital amusia in Hong Kong Cantonese.
While the issue of individual variation has been widely studied in second language learning or processing, it is less well understood how perceptual and musical aptitude differences can explain individual variation in native speech processing.

A semiconductor‐fabricated nanowell biosensor enables rapid, scalable, and highly reproducible detection of SARS‐CoV‐2 antigens from nasal swabs within ∼10 minutes. Clinical validation in 249 retrospective and 243 prospective patient samples demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity, minimal cross‐reactivity, and robust batch‐to‐batch ...

Abstract Autonomous vehicles are required to operate in an uncertain environment. Recent advances in computational intelligence techniques make it possible to understand driving scenes in various environments by using a semantic segmentation neural network, which assigns a class label to each pixel.

Seeing with sound? Exploring different characteristics of a visual-to-auditory sensory substitution device [PDF]
Sensory substitution devices convert live visual images into auditory signals, for example with a web camera (to record the images), a computer (to perform the conversion) and headphones (to listen to the sounds).

Soft robotic arms are promising for gentle grasping but often rely on bulky actuation systems. This work presents a computational design framework that optimizes tendon number and routing to achieve target grasps with fewer actuators. Validated on an octopus‐inspired underwater arm, the approach enables efficient, underactuated soft manipulators for ...

Pitch-Matching Accuracy and Temporal Auditory Processing
Introduction Pitch-matching refers to the ability to vocally reproduce an acoustic model in a corresponding tone to the presented sound. This ability, which is dependent on pitch perception ability, can vary among individuals, and some are not able to ...

Auditory frequency and intensity discrimination explained using a cortical population rate code. [PDF]
The nature of the neural codes for pitch and loudness, two basic auditory attributes, has been a key question in neuroscience for over century. A currently widespread view is that sound intensity (subjectively, loudness) is encoded in spike rates ...

Pitch discrimination in locusts
Sound stimulation of the tympanic organ ofLocusta migratoriaandSchistocerca gregariainitiates responses in the tympanic nerve and these in turn stimulate a few interneurones which ascend the ventral cord from the metathoracic ganglion to the brain. Some of the preparations show the following evidence of pitch discrimination.

Infant pitch perception: Missing fundamental melody discrimination [PDF]
Although recent results show that 3-month-olds can discriminate complex tones by their missing fundamental, it is arguable whether they are discriminating on the basis of a perceived pitch. A defining characteristic of pitch is that it carries melodic information.

This paper presents the deformable attention multiscale feature fusion network‐dehaze adaptive image dehazing network, which integrates three core modules (revised residual shrinkage unit, multiscale attention, cross‐scale feature fusion). It incorporates deformable convolution and multiscale attention mechanisms to address the detail loss issue of ...
