Perception Development of Complex Syntactic Construction in Children with Hearing Impairment

Objectives: Auditory perception or hearing ability is critical for children in acquisition of language and speech hence hearing loss has different effects on individuals’ linguistic perception, and also on their functions. It seems that deaf people suffer from language and speech impairments such as in perception of complex linguistic constructions. This research was aimed to study the pe...

Performance and Musical Perception Analysis

The main objective of this multidisciplinary study is to develop a cognitive model of the mechanisms of musical perception and comprehension. This model aims specifically at exploring the close interaction between the processes of segmentation and pattern recognition in musical listening from different angles including perception, musical analysis, and computer modeling. This question touches u...

Infants' perception of musical patterns.

This paper examines infants’ ability to perceive various aspects of musical material that are significant in music in general and in Western European music in particular: contour, intervals, exact pitches, diatonic structure, and rhythm. For the most part, infants focus on relational aspects of melodies, synthesizing global representations from local details. They encode the contour of a melody...

Perception-Based Musical Pattern Discovery

A new general methodology for Musical Pattern Discovery is proposed, which tries to mimic the flow of cognitive and sub-cognitive inferences that are processed when hearing a piece of music. A brief survey shows the necessity to handle such perceptual heuristics and to specify perceptual constraints on discoverable structures. For instance, successive notes between patterns should verify a spec...
