Cortical Mechanisms for the Segregation and Representation of Acoustic Textures

, 2010
Auditory object analysis requires two fundamental perceptual processes: the definition of the boundaries between objects, and the abstraction and maintenance of an object's characteristic features. Although it is intuitive to assume that the detection of

Von Kempelen et al. : remarks on the history of articulatory-acoustic modelling

, 2005
The contribution of von Kempelen’s “Mechanism of Speech” to the ‘phonetic sciences‘ will be analyzed with respect to his theoretical reasoning on speech and speech production on the one hand and on the other in connection with his practical insights ...

Neural indices of phonological and acoustic–phonetic perception

Brain and Language
Neural discriminative responses index acoustic-phonetic and phonological differences. This study examined how contextual complexity modulates neural discrimination of speech sounds. The neural discrimination of Japanese /ma/ and /na/ was examined in a single-standard versus multi-standard oddball paradigm.

An Acoustic–Phonetic Description of Hidatsa Vowels

Languages
In this study, we report on results of a preliminary acoustic–phonetic analysis of the Hidatsa vowel system. We conducted acoustic measurements of Hidatsa vowels in terms of averaged temporal and spectral properties of these phones. Our durational analysis provides strong evidence that Hidatsa has a ten-vowel system with phonemically long and short ...

The perception and production of stress and intonation by children with cochlear implants

, 2010
Users of current cochlear implants have limited access to pitch information and hence to intonation in speech. This seems likely to have an important impact on prosodic perception.

Perceptual and acoustic cues of Polish coronal fricatives

, 2003
On the basis of perceptual experiments we show that alveolo-palatal fricatives and palatalized post-alveolars are two separate sounds which are distinguished not only by Polish native speakers but also by German ones.
