Tianqi Song, Clémentine Bodin, and Olivier Coulon. 2023. NeuroImage 265: 119776. — @HAL The surface of the cerebral cortex is very convoluted, with a large number of folds, the cortical sulci. These folds are extremely variable from one individual to another, and this large variability is a problem for many applications in neuroscience and brain […]
Ouvertures et salutations entre babouins : Organisation de la séquence et orientation incarnée vers l’autre
Lorenza Mondada and Adrien Meguerditchian. 2022. Langage et Société N° 176 (2): 127–60. — @HAL Dans cet article, nous nous intéressons à une forme fondamentale de l’organisation de l’interaction sociale, l’organisation de la séquentialité et de la séquence, avec un intérêt particulier pour des actions que l’on peut analyser comme répondant à des actions précédentes, […]
Multimodal Intervention in 8- to 13-Year-Old French Dyslexic Readers: Study Protocol for a Randomized Multicenter Controlled Crossover Trial
Karine Louna Harrar-Eskinazi, Bruno De Cara, Gilles Leloup, Julie Nothelier, Hervé Caci, Johannes C. Ziegler, and Sylvane Faure. 2022. BMC Pediatrics 22 (1): 741 — @HAL Background: Developmental dyslexia, a specific and long-lasting learning disorder that prevents children from becoming efficient and fluent readers, has a severe impact on academic learning and behavior and may […]
Cerebral Activity in Female Baboons (Papio Anubis) During the Perception of Conspecific and Heterospecific Agonistic Vocalizations: A Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy Study
Coralie Debracque, Thibaud Gruber, Romain Lacoste, Adrien Meguerditchian, and Didier Grandjean. 2022. Affective Science 3 (4): 783–91. — @HAL The “voice areas” in the superior temporal cortex have been identified in both humans and non-human primates as selective to conspecific vocalizations only (i.e expressed by members of our own species), suggesting its old evolutionary roots […]
A multimodal approach for modeling engagement in conversation
Arthur Pellet-Rostaing, Roxane Bertrand, Auriane Boudin, Stéphane Rauzy, and Philippe Blache. 2023. Frontiers in Computer Science 5: 1062342 — @HAL Recently, engagement has emerged as a key variable explaining the success of conversation. In the perspective of human-machine interaction, an automatic assessment of engagement becomes crucial to better understand the dynamics of an interaction and […]
Timbral Cues for Learning to Generalize Musical Instrument Identity across Pitch Register
Stephen, McAdams, Etienne Thoret, Grace Wang, and Marcel Montrey. 2023. The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America 153 (2): 797–811 — @HAL Timbre provides an important cue to identify musical instruments. Many timbral attributes covary with other parameters like pitch. This study explores listeners’ ability to construct categories of instrumental sound sources from sounds […]
Multi-LEX: A Database of Multi-Word Frequencies for French and English
Marjorie Armando, Jonathan Grainger, and Stephane Dufau. 2022. Behavior Research Methods — @HAL Written word frequency is a key variable used in many psycholinguistic studies and is central in explaining visual word recognition. Indeed, methodological advances on single word frequency estimates have helped to uncover novel language-related cognitive processes, fostering new ideas and studies. In […]
The Path of Voices in Our Brain
Benjamin Morillon, Luc H. Arnal, and Pascal Belin. 2022. PLOS Biology 20 (7): e3001742. — @HAL Categorising voices is crucial for auditory-based social interactions. A recent study by Rupp and colleagues in PLOS Biology capitalises on human intracranial recordings to describe the spatiotemporal pattern of neural activity leading to voice-selective responses in associative auditory cortex.
On the Gestural Origins of Language: What Baboons’ Gestures and Brain Have Told Us after 15 Years of Research
Adrien Meguerditchian. 2022. Ethology Ecology & Evolution 34 (3): 288–302 — @HAL Nonhuman primates mostly communicate not only with a rich vocal repertoire but also with manual and body gestures. In contrast to great apes, this latter communicative gestural system has been poorly investigated in monkeys. In the last 15 years, the gestural research we […]
Space–Time Congruency Effects Using Eye Movements During Processing of Past- and Future-Related Words
Camille L. Grasso, Johannes C. Ziegler, Jennifer T. Coull, and Marie Montant. 2022. Experimental Psychology 69 (4): 210–17 — @HAL In Western cultures where people read and write from left to right, time is represented along a spatial continuum that goes from left to right (past to future), known as the mental timeline (MTL). In […]
