Octave generalization and tune recognition
An experiment was performed to investigate whether or not we are able to use octave generalization in recognizing tunes. The first half of the tune “Yankee Doodle” was chosen as the test sequence. This was universally recognized when played in any one of three octaves. However, when the sequence was played in identical fashion except that each note was chosen randomly from one of the same three...
متن کاملOctave generalization and melody identification.
In a recent article, House (1977) describes an experiment which he interprets as evidence against the two-channel theory for the abstraction of pitch relationships proposed by Deutsch (1969). The methodology used in this experiment was, however, inappropriate for a test of this theory. According to the model of Deutsch (1969), the abstraction of pitch relationships takes place along two separat...
متن کاملOctave generalization and the consolidation of melodic information.
Subjects listened to a standard six-tone melody, followed by a comparison melody. The comparison melody was always transposed up four semitones from the standard, and this transposition was either exact or it was inexact while maintaining contour. Subjects judged whether or not the comparison melody formed an exact transposition of the standard. It was found that repetition of the standard melo...
متن کاملMusic perception and octave generalization in rhesus monkeys.
Two rhesus monkeys were tested for octave generalization in 8 experiments by transposing 6- and 7-note musical passages by an octave and requiring same or different judgments. The monkeys showed no octave generalization to random-synthetic melodies, atonal melodies, or individual notes. They did show complete octave generalization to childhood songs (e.g., "Happy Birthday") and tonal melodies (...
متن کاملFlying in Tune: Sexual Recognition in Mosquitoes
Mosquitoes hear with their antennae, which in most species are sexually dimorphic. Johnston, who discovered the mosquito auditory organ at the base of the antenna 150 years ago, speculated that audition was involved with mating behaviour. Indeed, male mosquitoes are attracted to female flight tones. The male auditory organ has been proposed to act as an acoustic filter for female flight tones, ...
