The robustness of speech perception might, in part, result from multiple, complementary representations of the input, which operate in both acoustic–phonetic feature-based and articulatory–gestural domains. Recent studies of the anatomical and functional organization of the non-human primate auditory ...
SPEECH perceptionUNIVERSAL languageSOUND systemsVOWELSIn this two‐part review, we examine major results from infant consonant (Part 1), vowel, and suprasegmental (Part 2) discrimination research over the past 45 years from an acoustic perspective —an exegesis of the developmental speech perception ...

From 1874, thanks to the work of Carl Wernicke, speech perception has been linked to the posterior part of the superior temporal gyrus (Wernicke's area) and the ‘‘classical model’’ of the neurobiological basis of language has started to emerge, based on the prominence of Broca's and We...
Early research in speech perception sought to identify the acoustic cues used in the perception of speech. This research was made possible by the development of the sound spectrograph, the pattern playback, and, later, the computer-driven speech synthesizer ...
speech perception (paralleling the two accounts of general cognitive development mentioned above). Either the relevant perceptual constancies must be learned, or they are part of the initial equipment that the infant brings to the process of internalizing the rules of his language. Theories of the...
Decoding speech from brain activity is a long-awaited goal in both healthcare and neuroscience. Invasive devices have recently led to major milestones in this regard: deep-learning algorithms trained on intracranial recordings can now start to decode ele
Poets, academics, and those who simply speak a language are subject to mysterious intuitions about the perceptual qualities and emotional symbolism of the sounds of speech. Such intuitions are Reuven Tsur's point of departure in this investigation into the expressive effect of sound patterns, ...
