Perception of Phonological Assimilation by Neural Speech Recognition Models [PDF]
Computational LinguisticsAbstract Human listeners effortlessly compensate for phonological changes during speech perception, often unconsciously inferring the intended sounds. For example, listeners infer the underlying /n/ when hearing an utterance such as “clea[m] pan”, where [m] arises from place assimilation to the following labial [p]. This article explores

Coping with phonological assimilation in speech perception: Evidence for early compensation [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 2003 The pronunciation of the same word may vary considerably as a consequence of its context. The Dutch word tuin (English, garden) may be pronounced tuim if followed by bank (English, bench), but not if followed by stoel (English, chair). In a series of four experiments, we examined how Dutch listeners cope with this context sensitivity in their native ...

Inherent Biases of Recurrent Neural Networks for Phonological Assimilation and Dissimilation [PDF]
Proceedings of the 7th Workshop on Cognitive Modeling and
Computational Linguistics (CMCL 2017), 2017 A recurrent neural network model of phonological pattern learning is proposed. The model is a relatively simple neural network with one recurrent layer, and displays biases in learning that mimic observed biases in human learning. Single-feature patterns are learned faster than two-feature patterns, and vowel or consonant-only patterns are learned ...

Assimilation, antigemination, and contingent optionality: the phonology of monoconsonantal proclitics in Polish [PDF]
Natural Language & Linguistic Theory, 2010 Bakovic (2005) analyzes the avoidance of 'sufficiently similar' adjacent consonants as the interaction of independent antigemination and assimilation processes. We present evidence from the phonology of monoconsonantal proclitics in Polish in support of the primary consequence of this analysis, that any conditions on antigemination or assimilation will

Analyzing student assimilation of Japanese phonological transformation rules [PDF]
[Proceedings] 1992 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, 2003 The authors describe a method for statistically analyzing a student's proficiency at reading one of the distinct orthographies of Japanese, known as katakana. They provide a brief introduction to how a student model is constructed by analyzing a student's responses.

Compensation for phonological assimilation: Obstruent nasalization and coronal place assimilation
Linguistic Research, 2018 This paper investigates whether native English, Korean, and Chinese listeners show language-specific compensation mechanisms for phonological assimilation processes. To this end, two different assimilation rules, obstruent nasalization and coronal place assimilation, were tested. Fourteen Korean listeners, eleven English listeners, and fourteen Chinese

Four-year-olds' perception of nonnative contrasts differing in phonological assimilation [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1990 Young infants discriminate most native and nonnative phonetic contrasts. Adults, however, often have difficulty with nonnative contrasts, as do infants by 10–12 months [Werker, Am. Sci. 77, 54–59 (1989)]. Best et al. proposed that phonological development fosters perceptual assimilation of nonnative contrasts to the most similar native phoneme(s ...

On the role of regular phonological variation in lexical access: Evidence from voice assimilation in French [PDF]
Cognition, 2008 The present study investigated whether lexical access is affected by a regular phonological variation in connected speech: voice assimilation in French. Two associative priming experiments were conducted to determine whether strongly assimilated, potentially ambiguous word forms activate the conceptual representation of the underlying word.
