An acoustic study of plain and palatalized sibilants in Ocotepec Mixe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In Ocotepec Mixe, the stem-initial sibilants /s tÉs ß/ undergo a palatalization process when the prefix /j/ is added. Descriptions of other Mixe languages report that this palatalization is realized either as addition of a glide (in the case of the ...

Exploring the performance of automatic speaker recognition using twin speech and deep learning-based artificial neural networks

open access: yesFrontiers in Artificial Intelligence
This study assessed the influence of speaker similarity and sample length on the performance of an automatic speaker recognition (ASR) system utilizing the SpeechBrain toolkit. The dataset comprised recordings from 20 male identical twin speakers engaged

Social voice judgement is dyadic: Acoustic typicality and interpersonal similarity interact

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The formation of social first impressions from voices is a central component of everyday social interactions. While past research has primarily investigated the effect of bottom‐up voice acoustic on social voice judgements, here we widen the perspective and investigate how bottom‐up acoustic and top‐down interpersonal similarity interactively ...

FaceMamba: Geometry‐Aware Mamba for Efficient Speech‐Driven 3D Facial Animation

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Speech‐driven 3D facial animation plays a pivotal role in immersive digital human applications. Recent works have explored Mamba‐based sequence modeling as an efficient alternative to Transformer, but they often suffer from limited cross‐modal alignment and insufficient control over fine‐grained facial deformations.

The Importance Of Acoustic Analysis In Linguistic Studies: Emphasis And Long Vowels In Arabic Language As Model

open access: yesمجلّة المجمع الجزائريّ للّغة العربيّة
Acoustic analysis provides objective insights into speech production by measuring key acoustic parameters. In Arabic linguistics, it enables precise study of phonetic features such as consonant emphasis and vowel contrast, which are difficult to assess ...

Acoustic Characteristics of Arabic Pharyngeal and Pharyngealized Consonants

open access: yesKansas Working Papers in Linguistics, 1981
Spectrographic data were examined in order to find an acoustic correlate for the classification of "emphatic" in traditional Arabic phonology. It was found that an emphatic consonant affects the steady state and transition of a preceding or following ...

Discovering phonetic coherence in acoustic patterns [PDF]

open access: yesPerception & Psychophysics, 1989
Despite spectral and temporal discontinuities in the speech signal, listeners normally report coherent phonetic patterns corresponding to the phonemes of a language that they know. What is the basis for the internal coherence of phonetic segments?

Determination of perceptual boundaries between the male, female and child's voices in isolated synthethic Polish vowels

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2014
The problem of perceptual boundaries between the male, female and child's voices was considered. The experimental material included 730 synthetic realisations of the six Polish oral vowels: /i/, /i/, /e/, /a/, /o/ and /u/. "Target" male, female and child'
