Numeric aspects in pitch identification: an fMRI study [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2011
Background Pitch identification had yielded unique response patterns compared to other auditory skills. Selecting one out of numerous pitches distinguished this task from detecting a pitch ascent.

Noise edge pitch and models of pitch perception. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Acoust Soc Am, 2019
Monaural noise edge pitch (NEP) is evoked by a broadband noise with a sharp falling edge in the power spectrum. The pitch is heard near the spectral edge frequency but shifted slightly into the frequency region of the noise. Thus, the pitch of a lowpass (LP) noise is matched by a pure tone typically 2%–5% below the edge, whereas the pitch of highpass ...

Animal Pitch Perception: Melodies and Harmonies. [PDF]

open access: yesComp Cogn Behav Rev, 2017
Pitch is a percept of sound that is based in part on fundamental frequency. Although pitch can be defined in a way that is clearly separable from other aspects of musical sounds, such as timbre, the perception of pitch is not a simple topic. Despite this, studying pitch separately from other aspects of sound has led to some interesting conclusions ...

Pitch and Rhythm Perception and Verbal Short-Term Memory in Acute Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Music perception deficits are common following acquired brain injury due to stroke, epilepsy surgeries, and aneurysmal clipping. Few studies have examined these deficits following traumatic brain injury (TBI), resulting in an under-diagnosis in this ...

Perception of Intonation on Neutral Tone in Mandarin

open access: yesFrontiers in Communication, 2022
In Mandarin, lexical tone has been found to interact with intonational tone to influence intonation perception, with the falling T4 facilitating the perception of the statement/question contrast the most, and the rising T2 the least. However, in addition

Combination of absolute pitch and tone language experience enhances lexical tone perception

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Absolute pitch (AP), a unique ability to name or produce pitch without any reference, is known to be influenced by genetic and cultural factors. AP and tone language experience are both known to promote lexical tone perception.

An Empirical Method for Comparing Pitch Patterns in Spoken and Musical Melodies: A Comment on J.G.S. Pearl's "Eavesdropping with a Master: Leos Janáček and the Music of Speech." [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Music and speech both feature structured melodic patterns, yet these patterns are rarely compared using empirical methods. One reason for this has been a lack of tools which allow quantitative comparisons of spoken and musical pitch sequences ...

Categorical Perception of Pitch: Influence of Language Tone, Linguistic Meaning, and Pitch Contour

open access: yesJournal of Indian Speech Language & Hearing Association, 2017
Introduction Pitch is important for perception of speech. It is an imperative acoustic cue for differentiating gender, age, emotion and culture, etc. In certain languages, pitch also changes the linguistic meaning of the word.

Pitch Perception [PDF]

open access: yesAttention, Perception & Psychophysics, 2008
This article is a review of the psychophysical study of pitch perception. The history of the study of pitch has seen a continual competition between spectral and temporal theories of pitch perception. The pitch of complex stimuli is likely based on the temporal regularities in a sound's waveform, with the strongest pitches occurring for stimuli with ...

A Spectral Network Model of Pitch Perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
A model of pitch perception, called the Spatial Pitch Network or SPINET model, is developed and analyzed. The model neurally instantiates ideas front the spectral pitch modeling literature and joins them to basic neural network signal processing designs ...
