Does Social Complexity Drive Vocal Complexity? Insights from the Two African Elephant Species

Animals, 2021
The social complexity hypothesis (SCH) for communication states that the range and frequency of social interactions drive the evolution of complex communication systems.

Experimental inhibition of a key cellular antioxidant affects vocal communication [PDF]

, 2017
1. There is substantial interest of evolutionary ecologists in the proximate mechanisms that modulate vocal communication. In recent times, there has been growing interest in the role of oxidative stress as a mediator of avian song expression. 2.

Cognitive control of complex motor behavior in marmoset monkeys

Nature Communications, 2019
Whether marmosets can exhibit complex motor tasks in controlled experimental designs has not yet been demonstrated. Here, the authors show that marmoset monkeys can be trained to call on command in controlled operant conditioning tasks.

The Role of the Vocal Stream in Telepresence Communication [PDF]

Proceedings of the 9th ACM International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments, 2016
This paper helps in developing a new telepresence TP that will capture the vocal stream, and allow users to relate to natural behaviours that spontaneously arise during speech. Most of the work in affective computing within telepresence robot platforms adds to current research and knowledge generation as opposed to application.

Limiting parental feedback disrupts vocal development in marmoset monkeys

Nature Communications, 2017
The development of mature vocal patterns is shaped by parental influence in many animals. Here, Gultekin and Hage show that parental feedback not only influences vocal development, but is indeed necessary for juvenile marmosets to acquire normal vocal ...

Vocalization induced cFos expression in marmoset cortex

Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2010
All nonhuman primates communicate with conspecifics using vocalizations, a system involving both the production and perception of species-specific vocal signals.

Multimodal Communication in the Human–Cat Relationship: A Pilot Study

Animals, 2023
Across all species, communication implies that an emitter sends signals to a receiver, through one or more channels. Cats can integrate visual and auditory signals sent by humans and modulate their behaviour according to the valence of the emotion ...

Discovering Communication [PDF]

, 2006
What kind of motivation drives child language development? This article presents a computational model and a robotic experiment to articulate the hypothesis that children discover communication as a result of exploring and playing with their environment.

Auditory communication in domestic dogs: vocal signalling in the extended social environment of a companion animal [PDF]

, 2014
Domestic dogs produce a range of vocalisations, including barks, growls, and whimpers, which are shared with other canid species. The source–filter model of vocal production can be used as a theoretical and applied framework to explain how and why the ...
