Segmenting Phonetic Units in Laughter (2003, background): “With respect to the temporal distribution of the vocalic and the consonantal segment in one syllable it is worth mentioning that the aspiration phase is markedly longer than the vowel (see e.g. [2, 20 ], but see also [1]), i.e.”
Social signal classification using deep blstm recurrent neural networks (2014, background): “While laughter is commonly associated with spontaneous or contrived affective expressions [5], fillers such as ”ahm” or ”ah” are used to hold the floor in conversations [6].”
Cross-cultural recognition of basic emotions through nonverbal emotional vocalizations (2010, unknown): “Tickling triggers laugh-like vocalizations in nonhuman primates (25) as well as other mammals (26), suggesting that it is a social behavior with deep evolutionary roots (27).”
An HMM-based speech-smile synthesis system: An approach for amusement synthesis (2015, background): “Ruch [12] proved that enjoyment smiles were involved in laughter.”
The animal nature of spontaneous human laughter (2014, background): “Speech production, on the other hand, involves specialized fine-motor control of supralaryngeal articulators that phylogenetically older vocalizations such as laughter and crying do not necessarily incorporate (Ruch & Ekman, 2001; Szameitat, Darwin, Wildgruber, Alter, & Szameitat, 2011).”
Speech-laughs: An HMM-based approach for amused speech synthesis (2015, methodology): “Ruch, though, proved in [11], based on facial expression comparisons that enjoyment smiles were involved in laughter.”
Laughter in Conversation: Features of Occurrence and Acoustic Structure (2004, background): “It is ubiquitous and typically consists of a vocal and a visual signal complex: the laughter vocalization and the associated facial expression (Darwin, 1872; Ruch & Ekman, 2001 ).”
Laugh Like You Mean It: Authenticity Modulates Acoustic, Physiological and Perceptual Properties of Laughter (2016, background): “12 external stimulus, is characterized by an initial noisy forced exhalation (Ruch and Ekman, 2001),”
