Beyond Laurel/Yanny: An Autoencoder-Enabled Search for Polyperceivable Audio
The famous {`}laurel/yanny{''} phenomenon references an audio clip that elicits dramatically different responses from different listeners. For the original clip, roughly half the population hears the word {}laurel,{''} while the other half hears {}yanny.{''} How common are such {}polyperceivable{''} audio clips? In this paper we apply ML techniques to study the prevalence of polyperceivability in spoken language. We devise a metric that correlates with polyperceivability of audio clips, use it to efficiently find new {`}laurel/yanny{''}-type examples, and validate these results with human experiments. Our results suggest that polyperceivable examples are surprisingly prevalent in natural language, existing for {\textgreater}2{\%} of English words.
