Articulatory Tradeoffs Reduce Acoustic Variability During American English /r/ Production [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Acoustic and articulatory recordings reveal that speakers utilize systematic articulatory tradeoffs to maintain acoustic stability when producing the phoneme /r/.

Relating Objective and Subjective Performance Measures for AAM-based Visual Speech Synthesizers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We compare two approaches for synthesizing visual speech using Active Appearance Models (AAMs): one that utilizes acoustic features as input, and one that utilizes a phonetic transcription as input.

The segment as the minimal planning unit in speech production and reading aloud: evidence and implications. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Speech production and reading aloud studies have much in common, especially the last stages involved in producing a response. We focus on the minimal planning unit (MPU) in articulation.

A Constraint-Based Approach to Visual Speech for a Mexican-Spanish Talking Head

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computer Games Technology, 2008
A common approach to produce visual speech is to interpolate the parameters describing a sequence of mouth shapes, known as visemes, where a viseme corresponds to a phoneme in an utterance.

Recognizing Speech in a Novel Accent: The Motor Theory of Speech Perception Reframed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The motor theory of speech perception holds that we perceive the speech of another in terms of a motor representation of that speech. However, when we have learned to recognize a foreign accent, it seems plausible that recognition of a word rarely ...

Immediate Integration of Coarticulatory Cues for /s/-Retraction in American English

open access: yesFrontiers in Communication, 2022
Coarticulatory “noise” has long been presumed to benefit the speaker at the expense of the listener. However, recent work has found that listeners make use of that variation in real time to aid speech processing, immediately integrating coarticulatory ...
