Model of the Classification of English Vowels by Spanish Speakers [PDF]
, 1999 A number of models of single language vowel classification based on formant representations have been proposed. We propose a new model that explicitly predicts vowel perception by second language (L2) learners based on the phonological map of their ...

Utilising Hidden Markov Modelling for the Assessment of Accommodation in Conversational Speech [PDF]
, 2015 The work presented here suggests a method for assessing speech accommodation in a holistic acoustic manner by utilising Hidden Markov Models (HMMs). The rationale for implementation of this method is presented along with an explanation of how HMMs work ...

Acoustic-phonetics based speech recognition [PDF]
Proceedings of the workshop on Speech and Natural Language - HLT '89, 1989 The objective of this project is to develop a robust and high-performance speech recognition system using a segment-based approach to phonetic recognition. The recognition system will eventually be integrated with natural language processing to achieve spoken language understanding.
