Jul 20, 2021 · Rhythm perception is fundamental to speech and music. Humans readily recognize a rhythmic pattern, such as that of a familiar song, independently of the tempo at which it occurs. This shows that our perception of auditory rhythms is flexible, relying on global relational patterns more than on the absolute durations of specific time intervals.

Motivated by the finding that the perception of auditory rhythms engages forebrain auditory–motor loops in humans, we hypothesized that the specialized auditory–motor forebrain circuitry that subserves vocal learning confers advantages in flexible rhythm pattern perception (4, 31–33). Using a sequential training paradigm with multiple sound types, timbres, and tempi, we show that a vocal ...
Vocal learning and flexible rhythm pattern perception are linked: evidence from songbirds The perception of rhythmic patterns in auditory sequences is important for many species, ranging from crickets and birds to humans. Humans can recognize the cadence of a friend’s voice or the rhythm of a familiar song across a wide range of tempi. This shows
Jul 1, 2021 · It is shown that a vocal learning songbird robustly recognizes a basic rhythmic pattern independent of rate, paving the way for neurobiological studies to identify how the brain represents and perceives the temporal structure of auditory sequences. Significance We can recognize the cadence of a friend’s voice or the rhythm of a familiar song across a wide range of tempi. This shows that our ...

Oct 26, 2022 · Likewise, vocal production learning (VPL)—the ability we deploy when learning to produce speech sounds—requires precise vocal motor control. One main hypothesis for the evolution of rhythm states that flexible perception of rhythm patterns relies on, and stemmed from, VPL [1,4]. Because humans only constitute one datapoint to test this ...
