Harin Lee, Eline Van Geert, Elif Celen +4
Research on how humans perceive aesthetics in shapes, colours, and music has predominantly focused on Western populations, limiting our understanding of how cultural environments s…
Around the world in 60 words: A generative vocabulary test for online research
Pol van Rijn, Yue Sun, Harin Lee +5
Conducting experiments with diverse participants in their native languages can uncover insights into culture, cognition, and language that may not be revealed otherwise. However, c…
Large language models predict human sensory judgments across six modalities
Raja Marjieh, Ilia Sucholutsky, Pol van Rijn +2
Determining the extent to which the perceptual world can be recovered from language is a longstanding problem in philosophy and cognitive science. We show that state-of-the-art lar…
Words are all you need? Language as an approximation for human similarity judgments
Raja Marjieh, Pol van Rijn, Ilia Sucholutsky +4
Human similarity judgments are a powerful supervision signal for machine learning applications based on techniques such as contrastive learning, information retrieval, and model al…
Bridging the prosody GAP: Genetic Algorithm with People to efficiently sample emotional prosody
Pol van Rijn, Harin Lee, Nori Jacoby
The human voice effectively communicates a range of emotions with nuanced variations in acoustics. Existing emotional speech corpora are limited in that they are either (a) highly…
Exploring emotional prototypes in a high dimensional TTS latent space
Pol van Rijn, Silvan Mertes, Dominik Schiller +4
Recent TTS systems are able to generate prosodically varied and realistic speech. However, it is unclear how this prosodic variation contributes to the perception of speakers' emot…
Gibbs Sampling with People
Peter M. C. Harrison, Raja Marjieh, Federico Adolfi +5
A core problem in cognitive science and machine learning is to understand how humans derive semantic representations from perceptual objects, such as color from an apple, pleasantn…
