Voice and linguistic features support early attentional filtering of irrelevant stimuli

This study shows that both voice and linguistic differences enhance early attentional filtering of distractors in complex auditory environments.

Investigating Invariances in Auditory Event Categorization with Model Metamers

This study evaluates how well deep neural networks align with human perception in categorizing natural sounds by testing model metamers across different architectures and training tasks.

A distinct set of brain areas process prosody--the melody of speech

The paper identifies distinct brain areas that process prosody in speech across multiple experiments and participants.

Linguistic inputs must be syntactically parsable to fully engage the language network

The paper tests whether syntactic parsing is necessary for language comprehension by analyzing brain responses to syntactically ill-formed but semantically plausible and grammatically correct but semantically implausible sentences.
