The goals of this paper are (1) to discuss the key features of existing articulatory models of speech production that govern their approaches to timing, along with advantages and disadvantages of each, and (2) to evaluate these features in Tools and Templates terms of several pieces of evidence from both the speech and nonspeech motor control liter
In crosses between genetically divergent parents, traits such as weakness and sterility often segregate in later generations.This hybrid breakdown functions as a reproductive Maori Design Guitar Straps barrier and reduces selection efficiency in crossbreeding.Here, I provide an Tools and Templates overview of hybrid breakdown in rice crosses and di
In this paper, we developed a method to extract item-level response times from log data that are available in computer-based assessments (CBA) and paper-based assessments (PBA) with digital pens.Based on response times that were extracted using only time differences between responses, we used the bivariate generalized linear IRT model framework (B-
Mutations in the phosphatase PTEN are strongly implicated in autism spectrum disorder (ASD).Here, we investigate the function of Pten in cortical GABAergic neurons using conditional mutagenesis in mice.Loss of Pten results in a preferential loss of SST+ interneurons, which increases the ratio of parvalbumin/somatostatin (PV/SST) interneurons, ectop
