Temporal modulation in speech, music, and animal vocal communication: evidence of conserved function
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2019Speech is a distinctive feature of our species. It is the default channel for language and constitutes our primary mode of social communication. Determining the evolutionary origins of speech is a challenging prospect, in large part because it appears to

This book will be a landmark text for all those interested in animal communication. Animal Vocal Communication explicitly avoids human-centred concepts and approaches and links communication to fundamental biological processes instead. It offers a conceptual framework - assessment/management - that allows us to integrate detailed studies of ...

Production, usage, and comprehension in animal vocalizations
Brain and Language, 2010In this review, we place equal emphasis on production, usage, and comprehension because these components of communication may exhibit different developmental trajectories and be affected by different neural mechanisms. In the animal kingdom generally, learned, flexible vocal production is rare, appearing in only a few orders of birds and few species of

Wireless microphone for studies of animal vocalizations
Experientia, 1976A microphone collar for obtaining good quality recordings of animal vocalizations is described. An inexpensive, commercially available wireless microphone was modified and mounted on a collar with a hearing-aidbattery pack. The complete assembly weighs 25 g, and is readily accepted by domestic cats.

How do animals communicate using sounds? How did animal vocal communication arise and evolve? Exploring a new way to conceptualize animal communication, this new edition moves beyond an earlier emphasis on the role of senders in managing receiver behaviour, to examine how receivers' responses influence signalling.

Generalized perceptual features for animal vocalization classification
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2004Two sets of generalized, perceptual-based features are investigated for use in classifying animal vocalizations. Since many species, especially mammals, share similar physical sound perception mechanisms which vary in size, two features sets commonly used in human speech processing, mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) and perceptual linear ...

Animal behavior: Individual vocal recognition in bats
Current BiologySeveral animals are able to recognize and discriminate between individuals based on various sensory cues. A new study shows that wild bats recognize individual group members by voice and tailor their responses accordingly.

Abstract For more than a century it has been noted that the adult human vocal tract differs from that of other mammals, in that the resting position of the larynx is much lower in humans. While animals habitually breathe with the larynx inserted into the nasal cavity, adult humans are unable to do this.
