Mouth movements diminish taste adaptation, but rate of mouth movement does not affect adaptation

by Marjon J. M. Theunissen, Jan H. A. Kroeze - Chem. Senses , 1996
"... The degree of adaptation to five concentrations of sucrose was measured. Solutions were kept in the mouth for 25 s; a sweetness judgement was given every 5 s. There were four conditions of mouth movements: no movement, slow, medium and fast mouth movements. It was found that when mouth movements are ..."

Motor Cortex Dynamics in Visuomotor Production of Speech and Non-speech Mouth Movements

by unknown authors , 2006
"... We investigated timing and hemispheric balance of motor cortex activation when kinetically similar speech and non-speech mouth movements and sequences of such movements were triggered by visually presented letter- and symbol-strings. As an index of motor cortex activation, we used magnetoencephalogr ..."

Voice Recognition Method with Mouth Movement Videos Based on Forward and Backward Optical Flow

by Kohei Arai
"... Abstract—Lip reading method with mouth movement videos based on backward optical flow is proposed. Through experiments with 10 of mouth movement videos, it is found that the proposed lip reading method is superior to the conventional optical flow based method. Keywords- lip reading; optical flow; Hi ..."

Action recognition in the premotor cortex

by Vittorio Gallese, Luciano Fadiga, Leonardo Fogassi, Giacomo Rizzolatti - Brain , 1996
"... We recorded electrical activity from 532 neurons in the rostral part of inferior area 6 (area F5) of two macaque monkeys. Previous data had shown that neurons of this area discharge during goal-directed hand and mouth movements. We describe here the properties of a newly discovered set of F5 neurons ..."

Effects of Pronunciation Practice System Based on Personalized CG Animations of Mouth Movement Model

by Kohei Arai, Mariko Oda
"... Abstract — Pronunciation practice system based on personalized Computer Graphics: CG animation of mouth movement model is proposed. The system enables a learner to practice pronunciation by looking at personalized CG animations of mouth movement model, and allows him/her to compare them with his/her ..."

Speech Estimation in Non-Stationary Noise Environments Using Timing Structures between Mouth Movements and Sound Signals

by Hiroaki Kawashima, Yu Horii, Takashi Matsuyama
"... A variety of methods for audio-visual integration, which inte-grate audio and visual information at the level of either features, states, or classifier outputs, have been proposed for the purpose of robust speech recognition. However, these methods do not al-ways fully utilize auditory information w ..."

when the signal-to-noise ratio becomes low. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to estimate speech signal in noise environments. The key idea behind this approach is to exploit clean speech candidates gen-erated by using timing structures between mouth movements and sound signals. We first

of mouth and lips essential for feeding could have the potential for an assessment of the readiness to feed after birth. Although there is some research on sucking per se, we know very little about prenatal preparatory movements for sucking, namely, the ability to co-ordinate opening the mouth widely

ARTIFICIAL SINGING WITH A WEBCAM MOUTH-CONTROLLER

by Athanasios Hapipis, Eduardo Reck Miranda
"... We present a device to control a singing synthesiser with mouth movements captured with a mini web camera. The device comprises a mini web camera connected to a computer, which extracts a number of mouth movement parameters. These parameters are sent out as MIDI messages to another computer running ..."
