Even when acoustic tokens vary substantially, they nevertheless can usually be recognized accurately. Two opposing models have been proposed to account for how the speech recognition mechanism works to achieve the perceptual consistency. The abstract model holds that there is a unitary cognitive representation for each phonological category. The speech signal, after having variations filtered out...
This study investigated the effects of three different carriers on Mandarin tone perception. Three tone continua were constructed: Modified speech, synthesized speech, and nonspeech. Identification tests were conducted for the two speech continua, while discrimination tests were conducted for all the three continua. Results showed that category boundary position differed significantly between the...
Copy-number variation (CNV) constitutes a large proportion of total genomic variation and is increasingly recognized to be an extremely important risk factor for cancer. To examine the role of CNVs in glioblastoma, a genome-wide association study of CNVs in glioblastoma was conducted by assaying 221 tumor tissues and 28 normal tissues samples from primary glioblastoma multiform patients in TCGA project...
The performance of assistive communication brain-computer interfaces has been studied mostly for languages with alphabetic script. The viability of using such systems for languages with other types of script, such as Chinese, which has a logographic script, is currently poorly understood. Here, a performance analysis of the P300 Speller is presented for Chinese text input. The performance of six distinct...
