Linguistic strategies to detect frequency modulation patterns relevant to primate vocal communication

Methods used for pattern recognition in the analysis of primate vocalizations are examined. Following data collection, segmentation is the first step in analysis, generally based on analysis of a sonagram display. Low f sweeps reveal information about f modulated components of the call.

Description
Summary:Methods used for pattern recognition in the analysis of primate vocalizations are examined. Following data collection, segmentation is the first step in analysis, generally based on analysis of a sonagram display. Low f sweeps reveal information about f modulated components of the call. More detailed analysis allows development of a "grammar" & "vocabulary" which lead to higher level descriptions. 8 Figures, 26 References. B. Annesser Murray
