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.

Divergence of acoustic signals in a widely distributed frog: relevance of inter-male interactions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Divergence of acoustic signals in a geographic scale results from diverse evolutionary forces acting in parallel and affecting directly inter-male vocal interactions among disjunct populations.

A comparative study of the function of heterospecific vocal mimicry in European passerines [PDF]
, 2007 Although heterospecific vocal imitation is well documented in passerines, the evolutionary correlates of this phenomenon are poorly known. Here, we studied interspecific variation in vocal mimicry in a comparative study of 241 European songbirds.

Nonlinear vocal phenomena affect human perceptions of distress, size and dominance in puppy whines
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2022 While nonlinear phenomena (NLP) are widely reported in animal vocalizations, often causing perceptual harshness and roughness, their communicative function remains debated. Several hypotheses have been put forward: attention-grabbing, communication of distress, exaggeration of body size and dominance.

Idiopathic vocal fold paralysis in two adolescent patients with neurofibromatosis type 2
Otolaryngology Case Reports, 2020 Objectives: Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) is an autosomal dominant condition presenting with bilateral vestibular schwannomas and other neural tumors. Vocal fold paralysis (VFP) in NF2 patients is typically due to compression of the vagus nerve at the ...

Interspecific Dominance Via Vocal Interactions Mediates Altitudinal Zonation in Neotropical Singing Mice [PDF]
The American Naturalist, 2013 Interspecific aggression between ecologically similar species may influence geographic limits by mediating competitive exclusion at the range edge. Advertisement signals that mediate competitive interactions within species may also provide social information that contributes to behavioral dominance and spatial segregation among species.

Metabolic Mechanisms of Vocal Fatigue [PDF]
, 2013 Vocal fatigue is among the most debilitating conditions affecting individuals with voice disorders. Impressions about mechanisms potentially underlying vocal fatigue have varied depending on how fatigue is defined, participants studied, and measures made,
