Vocal repertoire and individuality in the plains zebra (Equus quagga)
Royal Society Open ScienceAcoustic signals are vital in animal communication, and quantifying them is fundamental for understanding animal behaviour and ecology. Vocalizations can be classified into acoustically and functionally or contextually distinct categories, but ...

Optimal features for auditory categorization
Nature Communications, 2019 Vocalizations such as speech or animal calls have high variability in production. Here, the authors report that a few mid-level acoustic features provide sufficient information to generalize across this variability and classify vocalization types and ...

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

Human cerebral response to animal affective vocalizations [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2007 It is presently unknown whether our response to affective vocalizations is specific to those generated by humans or more universal, triggered by emotionally matched vocalizations generated by other species. Here, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging in normal participants to measure cerebral activity during auditory stimulation with ...

Ceylon 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 ...

Developing New Metrics for the Investigation of Animal Vocalizations [PDF]
Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, 2001 Abstract An increasing body of evidence shows that non-human animal languages maybe far more complex than previously assumed. Semantic content in animal alarm calls has been found in the vocalizations of vervet monkeys, some types of ground squirrels, dwarf mongooses, chickens, and Gunnison’s prairie dogs.

The syntax–semantics interface in animal vocal communication [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2019 Syntax (rules for combining words or elements) and semantics (meaning of expressions) are two pivotal features of human language, and interaction between them allows us to generate a limitless number of meaningful expressions. While both features were traditionally thought to be unique to human language, research over the past four decades has revealed
