Rhythm in Language and Music
- Collaborators:
Doug Eck;
Bob Port,
Paul Kienzle,
Fred Cummins
- Questions
- How does a listener use the nested periodicities in speech
or music to guide perception?
- How is speech or musical performance guided by underlying periodicities?
- How do people learn to respond preferentially to particular rhythms with
exposure?
- Example
- Learn to reproduce a particular metrical pattern
- Duple meter
- Triple meter
- Approach: neural network of oscillators
- Performance
- Untrained network exposed to either duple or triple meter
- Trained network correctly reproduces pattern, even when
it includes temporal noise
