LPCNET: Improving Neural Speech Synthesis through Linear Prediction (2018, methodology): “In this work, we limit the input of the synthesis to just 20 features: 18 Bark-scale [13] cepstral coefﬁcients, and 2 pitch parameters (period, correlation).”
A Hybrid DSP/Deep Learning Approach to Real-Time Full-Band Speech Enhancement (2017, methodology): “We choose to divide the spectrum into the same approximation of the Bark scale [12] as the Opus codec [13] uses.”
Scalar Quantization for Relative Error (2011, background): “Examples may be found in touch, vision [17], hearing [ 18 ], and numerical cognition [19].”
Social signal processing: Survey of an emerging domain (2009, background): “the frequency of oscillation of the vocal folds during the emission of voice and it is the characteristic that alone contributes more than anything else to the sound of a voice [120][150].”
A typology of contour tone restrictions (2001, background): “The presence of harmonics greatly enhances the salience of the fundamental frequency, and can even allow for recovery of the tone when the fundamental itself has been extracted from the signal (see House (1990) and Moore (1995) for review of the relevant psychoacoustic literature).”
Constant Q cepstral coefficients: A spoofing countermeasure for automatic speaker verification (2017, result): “This is in contrast to the human perception system which is known to approximate a constant Q factor between 500Hz and 20kHz (Moore, 2003).”
DeviceTTS: A Small-Footprint, Fast, Stable Network for On-Device Text-to-Speech (2020, unknown): “We use 23-dim LPCNet features, comprising 21-dim Bark-scale [16] cepstral coefﬁcients, and 2 pitch parameters (period, correlation).”
Musicians have enhanced subcortical auditory and audiovisual processing of speech and music (2007, background): “Musicians also exhibited an enhanced representation of the F0, which is widely understood to underlie pitch perception (40).”

Detection and discrimination of natural calls in masking noise by birds: estimating the active space of a signal (2003, background): “Two general principles of auditory masking in vertebrates are that energy in the spectral region of the signal contributes more to masking than energy remote from the signal, and the effects of masking are asymmetrical, spreading more from low to high frequencies than the reverse (Egan & Hake 1950; ”
A tutorial on onset detection in music signals (2005, background): “Central to this time duration problem is the issue of the useful time resolution: we will assume that the human ear cannot distinguish between two transients less than 10 ms apart [1].”
