The gray matter volume of the amygdala is correlated with the perception of melodic intervals: a voxel-based morphometry study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Music is not simply a series of organized pitches, rhythms, and timbres, it is capable of evoking emotions. In the present study, voxel-based morphometry (VBM) was employed to explore the neural basis that may link music to emotion.

Interpretable timbre synthesis using variational autoencoders regularized on timbre descriptors

open access: yesProceedings of the International Conference on Digital Audio Effects, DAFx, 2023
Controllable timbre synthesis has been a subject of research for several decades, and deep neural networks have been the most successful in this area. Deep generative models such as Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) have the ability to generate a high-level representation of audio while providing a structured latent space.

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

open access: yesJournal 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

A first investigation into the effectiveness of Tactons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This paper reports two experiments relating to the design of Tactons (or tactile icons). The first experiment investigated perception of vibro-tactile "roughness" (created using amplitude modulated sinusoids), and the results indicated that roughness ...

Rhythm Processing Across Development: Origins, Links to Language Processing, and Perspectives for Intervention

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A wealth of research has investigated rhythm processing in music and speech, revealing shared cognitive and neural correlates and potential transfer effects, as evidenced by shared benefits and shared processing difficulties, as well as effects of stimulation and training programs.

Acoustic and categorical dissimilarity of musical timbre: Evidence from asymmetriesbetween acoustic and chimeric sounds

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
This paper investigates the role of acoustic and categorical information in timbre dissimilarity ratings. Using a Gammatone-filterbank-based sound transformation, we created tones that were rated as less familiar than recorded tones from orchestral ...

Analysis of the phenomenon of speculative trading in one of its basic manifestations: postage stamp bubbles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We document and analyze the empirical facts concerning one of the clearest evidence of speculation in financial trading as observed in the postage collection stamp market. We unravel some of the mechanisms of speculative behavior which emphasize the role
