A system for controlling vocal communication networks [PDF]

open access: goldScientific Reports, 2021
Animal vocalizations serve a wide range of functions including territorial defense, courtship, social cohesion, begging, and vocal learning. Whereas many insights have been gained from observational studies and experiments using auditory stimulation ...

Importance of sleep for avian vocal communication. [PDF]

open access: hybridBiol Lett, 2022
Sleep is one of the few truly ubiquitous animal behaviours, and though many animals spend enormous periods of time asleep, we have only begun to understand the consequences of sleep disturbances. In humans, sleep is crucial for effective communication. Birds are classic models for understanding the evolution and mechanisms of human language and speech.

The neurobiology of vocal communication in marmosets. [PDF]

open access: yesAnn N Y Acad Sci, 2023
AbstractAn increasingly popular animal model for studying the neural basis of social behavior, cognition, and communication is the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus). Interest in this New World primate across neuroscience is now being driven by their proclivity for prosociality across their repertoire, high volubility, and rapid development, as well ...

Feline vocal communication. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Vet Sci, 2020
Cat vocalizes to communicate with another and express their internal states. The vocal repertoire of the cat is wide and up to 21 different vocalizations have been described in the literatures. But it is more than probable that the repertoire contains more types of vocalizations.

Vocal communication and perception of pain in childbirth vocalizations. [PDF]

open access: yesPhilos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci
Nonlinear acoustic phenomena (NLP) likely facilitate the expression of distress in animal vocalizations, making calls perceptually rough and hard to ignore. Yet, their function in adult human vocal communication remains poorly understood. Here, to examine the production and perception of acoustic correlates of pain in spontaneous human nonverbal ...

Editorial: vocal communication in corvids [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Cognition
Corvids are one of the most prominent avian taxa for the study of animal behaviour and cognition, yet their vocal communication remains comparatively understudied.

Vocal registers expand signal diversity in vertebrate vocal communication. [PDF]

open access: yesPhilos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci
Abstract Among air-breathing tetrapods, the most common sound production mechanism is flow-induced self-sustained tissue oscillation, aka voiced sound production, driven by inherently nonlinear physical processes. Some signature features like deterministic chaos have received particular attention in bioacoustics as nonlinear phenomena

Individual Differences in the Vocal Communication of Malayan Tapirs (Tapirus indicus) Considering Familiarity and Relatedness [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Studies in animal communication have shown that many species have individual distinct calls. These individual distinct vocalizations can play an important role in animal communication because they can carry important information about the age, sex ...

The vocal communication of different kinds of smile [PDF]

open access: yesSpeech Communication, 2008
The present study investigated the vocal communication of naturally occurring smiles. Verbal variation was controlled in the speech of 8 speakers by asking them to repeat the same sentence in response to a set sequence of 17 questions, intended to provoke reactions such as amusement, mild embarrassment, or just a neutral response.
