Searching for pitch invariant representations in auditory cortex [oral presentation] [PDF]

, 2014
Pitch constancy relates to perceiving the same pitch from tones with differing spectral shapes and is one key criteria for identifying a pitch selective neural representation in auditory cortex.

The impact of Synaesthesia on inclusive teaching and learning: A systematic literature review

British Journal of Special Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Synaesthesia is a neurodevelopmental phenomenon involving consistent, involuntary cross‐modal sensory experiences. Though well‐documented in cognitive neuroscience, its implications for educational practice remain underexplored. This systematic narrative literature review investigates how synaesthesia may impact children's learning and inform ...

Efficient Masked Autoencoder for Birdsong Representation with Applications on Wild Bird Species Classification

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Research on mosquito feeding preferences and the malaria parasites they transmit is essential for understanding the interactions between hosts, vectors, and parasites. In this study, vertebrate hosts were identified in 72 mosquitoes. Most blood meals (58.7%) came from birds, representing 25 species, while 40.0% came from mammals (13 species), and 1.3 ...

Timbre, tone color, and sound quality: concepts and definitions

Archives of Acoustics, 2014
Timbre is a magic word used by composers, musicians, sound engineers, and other audio and hearing professionals to describe all auditory sensations other than pitch, loudness, and perceived duration.

Audio-based music classification with a pretrained convolutional network [PDF]

, 2011
Recently the ‘Million Song Dataset’, containing audio features and metadata for one million songs, was made available. In this paper, we build a convolutional network that is then trained to perform artist recognition, genre recognition and key detection.

Organizational Soundscapes and the Sonicity of Voices: The Power of the ‘Sounds’ that Carry ‘Words’

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Organizations are soundscapes – they resonate with sounds and particularly the sounds of voices. Somehow however voice sonics, that is the sounds of voices and not the words carried on those sounds, have escaped attention in management studies. This absence of analysis is peculiar given voice sonics' undoubted influence on management (they may

Neural correlates of musical timbre: an ALE meta-analysis of neuroimaging data

Frontiers in Neuroscience
Timbre is a central aspect of music that allows listeners to identify musical sounds and conveys musical emotion, but also allows for the recognition of actions and is an important structuring property of music.

A Dynamical Systems Approach to Spectral Music: Modeling the Role of Roughness and Inharmonicity in Perception of Musical Tension

Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2020
Tension-resolution patterns seem to play a dominant role in shaping our emotional experience of music. In traditional Western music, these patterns are mainly expressed through harmony and melody.

An evaluation of earcons for use in auditory human-computer interfaces [PDF]

, 1993
An evaluation of earcons was carried out to seee whether they are an effective means of communicating information in sound. An initial experiment showed that earcons were better than unstructured bursts of sound and that musical timbres were more ...
