TLDR
The metrological and computational problems of detecting very weak variations in the frequencies of the fundamental tone are discussed from a signal processing point of view and an integral parameter--the so-called cry-jitter index--is proposed.About:

Mode of delivery modulates physiological and behavioral responses to neonatal pain.

TL;DR: Diminished responses following vaginal delivery suggest that physiological events associated with a normal delivery reduce the physiologic and sympathoadrenal activation by nociceptive mechanisms.

Analysis of the sounds of the child in the first year of age and a comparison to the language.
TL;DR: The analysis of the acoustic characteristic features of cries and babbling in the course of the ontogenetical development of babies from the 3rd to 5th day on up to the age of 1 year and the results to the acoustic characteristics of the adult language justifies the assumption that the human being possesses two separate communication systems that share the same acoustic channel.

Cry characteristics of 172 healthy 1-to 7-day-old infants.
TL;DR: There were no significant differences noted in the cry characteristics according to gender, the age of the infants or the gestational age when they were born.

Analysis of Laughter and Speech Sounds in Italian and German Students
TL;DR: The orb-web is an energetic and behavioural estimator of a spider’s dynamic foraging and reproductive strategies and its role in prey consumption behaviour is investigated.

Newborn infants' cry after heel‐prick: analysis with sound spectrogram
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors test the hypothesis that a newborn infant's cry can be used in conjunction with an instrument to measure pain in order to detect the cause of the pain.

A Biobehavioral Perspective on Crying in Early Infancy
TL;DR: The central role of crying in early infancy has been discussed by parents, pediatricians, and theorists as mentioned in this paper, and there are times, however, when the immediate cause of crying is not clear when the infant cannot be easily soothed.
