Prosodic pitch processing is represented in delta‐band EEG and is dissociable from the cortical tracking of other acoustic and phonetic features

ES Teoh, MS Cappelloni… - European Journal of …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Speech is central to communication among humans. Meaning is largely conveyed by the
selection of linguistic units such as words, phrases and sentences. However, prosody, that is …

[HTML][HTML] Subcortical responses to music and speech are alike while cortical responses diverge

T Shan, MS Cappelloni, RK Maddox - Scientific Reports, 2024 - nature.com
Music and speech are encountered daily and are unique to human beings. Both are transformed
by the auditory pathway from an initial acoustical encoding to higher level cognition. …

Performance in an Audiovisual Selective Attention Task Using Speech-Like Stimuli Depends on the Talker Identities, But Not Temporal Coherence

MS Cappelloni, VS Mateo, RK Maddox - Trends in Hearing, 2023 - journals.sagepub.com
Audiovisual integration of speech can benefit the listener by not only improving comprehension
of what a talker is saying but also helping a listener select a particular talker's voice from …

[HTML][HTML] Task-uninformative visual stimuli improve auditory spatial discrimination in humans but not the ideal observer

MS Cappelloni, S Shivkumar, RM Haefner… - PloS One, 2019 - journals.plos.org
In order to survive and function in the world, we must understand the content of our environment.
This requires us to gather and parse complex, sometimes conflicting, information. Yet, …

[HTML][HTML] Independent mechanisms of temporal and linguistic cue correspondence benefiting audiovisual speech processing

S Fiscella, MS Cappelloni, RK Maddox - Attention, Perception, & …, 2022 - Springer
It is well established that in order to comprehend speech in noisy environments, listeners
use the face of the talker in conjunction with the auditory speech. Yet how listeners use …

Inferring sources of suboptimality in perceptual decision making using a causal inference task

S Shivkumar, MS Cappelloni, RK Maddox, RM Haefner - bioRxiv, 2022 - biorxiv.org
Perceptual decision-making has been extensively modeled using the ideal observer framework.
However, a range of deviations from optimality demand an extension of this framework …

Music and Speech Elicit Similar Subcortical Responses in Human Listeners

T Shan, MS Cappelloni, RK Maddox - bioRxiv, 2022 - biorxiv.org
Music and speech are two sounds that are unique to human beings and encountered in
daily life. Both are transformed by the auditory pathway from an initial acoustical encoding to …

Humans rely more on talker identity than temporal coherence in an audiovisual selective attention task using speech-like stimuli

MS Cappelloni, VS Mateo, RK Maddox - bioRxiv, 2022 - biorxiv.org
Audiovisual integration of speech can benefit the listener by not only improving comprehension
of what a talker is saying but also helping a listener pick a particular talker’s voice out of …

Effects of auditory reliability and ambiguous visual stimuli on auditory spatial discrimination

MS Cappelloni, S Shivkumar, RM Haefner, RK Maddox - bioRxiv, 2020 - biorxiv.org
The brain combines information from multiple sensory modalities to interpret the environment.
Multisensory integration is often modeled by ideal Bayesian causal inference, a model …

Task-uninformative visual stimuli improve auditory spatial discrimination: the ambiguous contribution of relative reliability

MS Cappelloni, S Shivkumar, RM Haefner, RK Maddox - bioRxiv, 2022 - biorxiv.org
The brain combines information from multiple sensory modalities to interpret the environment.
These processes, collectively known as multisensory integration, have been modeled as …
