Generative models inferred using statistical tests reveal context-dependent syllable transitions in Bengalese finch songs

Kavli Affiliate: Kristofer Bouchard | Authors: Jiali Lu, Sumithra Surendralal, Kristofer E Bouchard and Dezhe Z. Jin | Summary: Generative models are widely used in modeling sequences from language to birdsong. Here we show that a statistical test designed to guard against overgeneralization of a model in generating sequences can be used to infer minimal […]
