Journal Article
Gonzalez, J. A., Cheah, L. A., Gomez, A. M., Green, P. D., Gilbert, J. M., Ell, S. R., …Holdsworth, E. (2017). Direct Speech Reconstruction from Articulatory Sensor Data by Machine Learning. IEEE/ACM transactions on audio, speech, and language processing, 25(12), 2362-2374. https://doi.org/10.1109/TASLP.2017.2757263

© 2014 IEEE. This paper describes a technique that generates speech acoustics from articulator movements. Our motivation is to help people who can no longer speak following laryngectomy, a procedure that is carried out tens of thousands of times per...

Male genital titillators and the intensity of post-copulatory sexual selection across bushcrickets (2017)
Journal Article
Lehmann, G. U., Gilbert, J. D., Vahed, K., & Lehmann, A. W. (2017). Male genital titillators and the intensity of post-copulatory sexual selection across bushcrickets. Behavioral ecology, 28(5), 1198-1205. https://doi.org/10.1093/beheco/arx094

Animal genitalia are diverse and a growing body of evidence suggests that they evolve rapidly under post-copulatory sexual selection. This process is predicted to be more intense in polyandrous species, although there have been very few comparative s...

Larval exposure to field-realistic concentrations of clothianidin has no effect on development rate, over-winter survival or adult metabolic rate in a solitary bee, Osmia bicornis (2017)
Journal Article
Nicholls, E., Fowler, R., Niven, J. E., Gilbert, J. D., & Goulson, D. (2017). Larval exposure to field-realistic concentrations of clothianidin has no effect on development rate, over-winter survival or adult metabolic rate in a solitary bee, Osmia bicornis. PeerJ, 5(6), e3417. https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.3417

© 2017 Nicholls et al. There is widespread concern regarding the effects of agro-chemical exposure on bee health, of which neonicotinoids, systemic insecticides detected in the pollen and nectar of both crops and wildflowers, have been the most stron...

Restoring speech following total removal of the larynx by a learned transformation from sensor data to acoustics (2017)
Journal Article
Gilbert, J. M., Gonzalez, J. A., Cheah, L. A., Ell, S. R., Green, P., Moore, R. K., & Holdsworth, E. (2017). Restoring speech following total removal of the larynx by a learned transformation from sensor data to acoustics. The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 141(3), EL307-EL313. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4978364

Total removal of the larynx may be required to treat laryngeal cancer: speech is lost. This article shows that it may be possible to restore speech by sensing movement of the remaining speech articulators and use machine learning algorithms to derive...
