The speech-to-song illusion has attracted interest as a probe of the perceptual interface between language and music. One might anticipate differential speech-to-song effects in tonal vs. non-tonal languages, since these language classes differ importantly in the linguistic value they assign to tones. Here we addressed this issue for the first time in a cohort of 20 healthy younger adults whose...
To learn words in a tonal language, tone-language learners should not only develop better abilities for perceiving consonants and vowels, but also for lexical tones. The divergent trend of enhancing sensitivity to native phonetic contrasts and reduced sensitivity to non-native phonetic contrast is theoretically essential to evaluate effects of listening to an ambient language on speech percepti...
We investigate how to assess the prosody quality of an ESL learner’s spoken sentence against native speaker’s natural recording or TTS synthesized voice. A spoken English utterance read by an ESL leaner is compared with the recording of a native speaker, or TTS voice. The corresponding F0 contours (with voicings) and breaks are compared at the mapped syllable level via a DTW. The correlations b...
BACKGROUND Functional mitral regurgitation is one of the severe complications of non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Non-contrast native T1 mapping has emerged as a non-invasive method to evaluate myocardial fibrosis. We sought to evaluate the potential relationship between papillary muscle T1 time and mitral regurgitation in DCM patients. METHODS Forty DCM patients (55 ± 13 years) and...
In 1956, the shallow-water grouper Cephalopholis argus was introduced from Moorea (French Polynesia), where grouper diversity (14 species) is high, to the Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI), where only 2 rare native deep-water groupers occur. In this non-native environment, the species has flourished and has become the dominant apex predator on many reefs. In the present study, a comparison of non-nat...
AIMS The aim was to compare cardiac allograft vasculopathy to native atherosclerosis by near-infrared spectroscopy-intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS). METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty-seven atherosclerotic (non-transplant) patients and 28 heart transplant recipients undergoing routine surveillance coronary angiography underwent NIRS-IVUS imaging of the left anterior descending coronary artery. In...
The development of speech perception shows a dramatic transition between infancy and adulthood. Between 6 and 12 months, infants' initial ability to discriminate all phonetic units across the world's languages narrows-native discrimination increases while non-native discrimination shows a steep decline. We used magnetoencephalography (MEG) to examine whether brain oscillations in the theta band...
Speech produced in noise (Lombard speech) is more intelligible than speech quiet (plain speech). Previous research on the Lombard intelligibility benefit focused almost entirely how native speakers produce and perceive speech. In this study, we investigate size of both (American-English) non-native (native Dutch) English for listeners (Dutch Spanish). We used a glimpsing metric to measure energ...
