Acoustic phonetics is the study of the acoustic characteristics of speech, including an analysis and description of speech in terms of its physical properties, such as frequency, intensity, and duration. Descriptions of speech sounds in these terms date back as far as 1830 (Willis), but the invention of the sound spectrograph (1945) was the major ...

APS: An environment for acoustic phonetic research
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1989Continuous speech recognition systems based on acoustic phonetic features demand characterization of the relationship between phonetic segments and their acoustic values. This paper describes a software environment for exploring this relationship. The software system is known as APS—acoustic phonentic research with S (the standard UNIX statistical ...

Acoustic-phonetic recognition in BBN SPEECHLIS
ICASSP '76. IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2005This paper describes the acoustic-phonetic analysis of continuous speech in a complete speech understanding system. The system accepts various parameters derived from the digital waveform and short-time spectra, and produces a segment lattice where segments can have overlapping boundaries and the description of segments is a list of labels.

An acoustic phonetic description of Nungon vowels
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020This study is a comprehensive acoustic description and analysis of the six vowels /i e a u o ɔ/ in the Towet dialect of the Papuan language Nungon ⟨yuw⟩ of northeastern Papua New Guinea. Vowel tokens were extracted from a corpus of audio speech recordings created for general language documentation and grammatical description.

This book presents a theory of speech-sound generation in the human vocal system. This book presents a theory of speech-sound generation in the human vocal system. The comprehensive acoustic theory serves as one basis for defining categories of speech sounds used to form distinctions between words in languages.

Phonetic triplets in acoustic-phonetic decoding of continuous speech
[Proceedings] ICASSP 91: 1991 International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 1991A knowledge-based approach which stores knowledge in the form of contextual prototypes called triplets is presented. A triplet consists of an acoustic description using acoustic events (burst features, formant trajectories, etc.) and a component representing the acoustic correlates used by a human expert.

DWT-based classification of acoustic-phonetic classes and phonetic units
Interspeech 2004, 2004Abstract In this paper, we describe a new algorithm based on the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) which uses a multi-threshold decision model (MTD model) to detect acoustic and phonetic classes (based on 10ms speech signal segments). The best thresholds of the model are found by using experimental pattern classification. Then a unit level interpolation

Articulatory and acoustic phonetics
2023AbstractAustralian Aboriginal languages are well-known for their multiple coronal place of articulation contrasts, which extend across the stop, nasal, and lateral manners of articulation. This chapter looks at the articulatory properties of these consonants, and considers their place within the wider system of lingual consonant contrasts.

Acoustic-phonetic modeling in the SPICOS system
IEEE Transactions on Speech and Audio Processing, 1994This paper deals with the acoustic-phonetic modeling developed in the SPICOS recognition system. The phoneme units are represented by variants of hidden Markov models and are refined step-by-step to improve the recognition performance. Two different approaches to modeling the emission probabilities are investigated, namely discrete models and ...

Definition of relations in an acoustic phonetic database
ICASSP-88., International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2003DEMSI is a database environment for the management of speech-related information for acoustic phonetic research. Structured around a relational DBMS, DEMSI offers a flexible and comprehensive framework for the storage and retrieval of a wide range of linguistic, phonetic and acoustic parameters.
