A new model of sensorimotor coupling in the development of speech.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a computational model that learns a coupling between motor parameters and their sensory consequences in vocal production during a babbling phase. Based on the coupling, preferred motor parameters and prototypically perceived sounds develop concurrently. Exposure to an ambient language modifies perception to coincide with the sounds from the language. The model develops motor mirror neurons that are active when an external sound is perceived. An extension to visual mirror neurons for oral gestures is suggested.

Development of Forward-wave Directional Couplers Loaded by Periodic Shunt Shorted Stubs
In this paper a new procedure for designing forward-wave directional couplers using periodic shunt short circuited stubs is proposed. A new type of cell using these stubs, which enlarge the phase difference between even- and odd modes of a uniform microstrip coupled line is introduced. Using the equivalent circuit model for even- and odd-modes of the proposed cell, the elements of the ABCD tra...
متن کاملSensorimotor Mindful Interventions: A New Method to Enhance Mental and Physical Health
Mindfulness has recently been considered by many mental health professionals as a predictor trait of mental and physical health and many therapeutic methods seek to increase clients' mindfulness in order to achieve health. However, there is no difference between the effectiveness of static psychotherapy and mindfulness-focused approaches. Also, mindfulness-based therapeutic methods usually perf...
متن کاملTowards a Contrastive Pragmatic Analysis of Congratulation Speech Act in Persian and English
This paper aims at studying the speech act of congratulation in Persian and English with regard to semantic formulas. To gather the semantic formulas related to congratulation, the researchers chose 100 movies (50 in Persian and 50 in English) as the instrument of the study. The only model of cross-cultural comparison was related to that of Elwood (2004). Therefore, we used Elwood’s model as th...
متن کاملCombination of Lidocaine and Chloral Hydrate as a New Method of Anesthesia in a Rat Model of Ischemic Stroke
Background and purpose: In experimental studies, proper choice of anesthesia method is important for both validity of results and improving the rate of success and mortality. In current study, we examined the effects of lidocaine combined with chloral hydrate for induction of anesthesia in a rat model of ischemic stroke. Materials and methods: In this research, 30 male rats were studied as sha...
متن کاملCOUPLING MODEL FOR MULTI-COMPONENT GAS PERMEATION PROCESS
A gas permeation model (Coupling Model) has been developed which has the flexibility to be used for different membrane module configurations. The aim of this work is to predict the performance of a single stage gas separation process using membranes and provide a comprehensive description of process parameters like flow rates, composition, stage cut and stream pressure. The significant feature ...
