A comprehensive account of sound sequence imitation in the songbird.
The amazing imitation capabilities of songbirds show that they can memorize sensory sequences and transform them into motor activities which in turn generate the original sound sequences. This suggests that the bird's brain can learn 1.) to reliably reproduce spatio-temporal sensory representat...
