Abstract

Speech is a complex sound sequence containing statistical regularities on multiple timescales. New research manipulates long-timescale statistical regularities of speech by jittering the duration of silence periods. It provides evidence that low-frequency neural activity (<4 Hz) is tuned to the statistical regularities of natural speech.
