General isochronous rhythm in echolocation calls and social vocalizations of the bat Saccopteryx bilineata [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
Rhythm is an essential component of human speech and music but very little is known about its evolutionary origin and its distribution in animal vocalizations.

Large-scale avian vocalization detection delivers reliable global biodiversity insights

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Tracking biodiversity and its dynamics at scale is essential if we are to solve global environmental challenges. Detecting animal vocalizations in passively recorded audio data offers an automatable, inexpensive, and taxonomically broad way to monitor ...

The repertoire and structure of vocalizations of the Southern Magpie Robin (Copsychus saularis ceylonensis) in the Kandy region, Sri Lanka

open access: yesCeylon Journal of Science, 2016
Bird vocalizations could be used to analyze various ecological aspects and hypotheses as the environment affects the evolution of acoustic signals. Oriental Magpie Robin (Copsychus saularis ceylonensis) is one such ideal candidate for ecological studies ...

Inferring low-dimensional latent descriptions of animal vocalizations

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
Vocalization is an essential medium for social and sexual signaling in most birds and mammals. Consequently, the analysis of vocal behavior is of great interest to fields such as neuroscience and linguistics. A standard approach to analyzing vocalization

Human Novelty Response to Emotional Animal Vocalizations: Effects of Phylogeny and Familiarity

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017
Darwin (1872) postulated that emotional expressions contain universals that are retained across species. We recently showed that human rating responses were strongly affected by a listener's familiarity with vocalization types, whereas evidence for ...

The Role of Sound in Livestock Farming—Selected Aspects

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Simple Summary Greater awareness about animal welfare forces breeders to pay more attention to animals’ needs and behaviors. The presence of sound coming from surroundings, machines, people, and animals themselves may be an important factor that affects ...

Rhythm in speech and animal vocalizations: a cross‐species perspective [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2019
AbstractWhy does human speech have rhythm? As we cannot travel back in time to witness how speech developed its rhythmic properties and why humans have the cognitive skills to process them, we rely on alternative methods to find out. One powerful tool is the comparative approach: studying the presence or absence of cognitive/behavioral traits in other ...

Acoustic-based models to assess herd-level calves' emotional state: A machine learning approach

open access: yesSmart Agricultural Technology
Animal bioacoustics is an important tool for monitoring different aspects of the physiology, behavior and well-being of animals remotely, non-invasively and continuously.

Contextual modulation of vocal behavior in mouse: newly identified 12 kHz ‘mid-frequency’ vocalization emitted during restraint.

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2016
While several studies have investigated mouse ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) emitted by isolated pups or by males in mating contexts, studies of behavioral contexts other than mating and vocalization categories other than USVs have been limited.
