Hemispheric dominance underlying the neural substrate for learned vocalizations develops with experience [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2015 AbstractMany aspects of song learning in songbirds resemble characteristics of speech acquisition in humans. Genetic, anatomical and behavioural parallels have most recently been extended with demonstrated similarities in hemispheric dominance between humans and songbirds: the avian higher order auditory cortex is left-lateralized for processing song ...

Improving Singing Voice Separation Using Curriculum Learning on Recurrent Neural Networks
Applied Sciences, 2020 Single-channel singing voice separation has been considered a difficult task, as it requires predicting two different audio sources independently from mixed vocal and instrument sounds recorded by a single microphone.

Gender and Context-Specific Effects of Vocal Dominance and Trustworthiness on Leadership Decisions
Adaptive Human Behavior and Physiology, 2022 Abstract Objective The evolutionary-contingency hypothesis, which suggests that preferences for leaders are context-dependent, has found relatively consistent support from research investigating leadership decisions based on facial pictures.
