Brittany Bernal - Sensorimotor Adaptation of Vowel Production in Stop Consonant Contexts [PDF]
, 2013 The purpose of this research is to measure the compensatory and adaptive articulatory response to shifted formants in auditory feedback to compare the resulting amount of sensorimotor learning that takes place in speakers upon saying the words /pep/ and /

Mate assessment based on physical characteristics: a review and reflection
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 1, Page 113-130, February 2025.ABSTRACT Mate choice, and sex differences in romantic behaviours, represented one of the first major applications of evolutionary biology to human behaviour. This paper reviews Darwinian approaches to heterosexual mate assessment based on physical characteristics, placing the literature in its historical context (1871–1979), before turning ...

Ultra2Speech -- A Deep Learning Framework for Formant Frequency Estimation and Tracking from Ultrasound Tongue Images [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Thousands of individuals need surgical removal of their larynx due to critical diseases every year and therefore, require an alternative form of communication to articulate speech sounds after the loss of their voice box. This work addresses the articulatory-to-acoustic mapping problem based on ultrasound (US) tongue images for the development of a ...

Domain Adaptation For Formant Estimation Using Deep Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 In this paper we present a domain adaptation technique for formant estimation using a deep network. We first train a deep learning network on a small read speech dataset. We then freeze the parameters of the trained network and use several different datasets to train an adaptation layer that makes the obtained network universal in the sense that it ...

Proceedings of 11th International Conference of Experimental Linguistics, 2020 Every physical event that can be observed can be measured and described, including sounds. This paper discusses computer algorithms that were developed to depict vowels and speech sounds in their three dimensions: frequency, energy, and time. Each vowel has a separate distinguishable shape based on its dimensions.

Pronunciation recognition of English phonemes /\textipa{@}/, /æ/, /\textipa{A}:/ and /\textipa{2}/ using Formants and Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The Vocal Joystick Vowel Corpus, by Washington University, was used to study monophthongs pronounced by native English speakers. The objective of this study was to quantitatively measure the extent at which speech recognition methods can distinguish between similar sounding vowels. In particular, the phonemes /\textipa{@}/, /{\ae}/, /\textipa{A}:/ and /

A Vowel Analysis of the Northwestern University-Children\u27s Perception of Speech Evaluation Tool [PDF]
, 2017 In an analysis of the speech perception evaluation tool, the Northwestern University – Children’s Perception of Speech test, the goal was to determine whether the foil words and the target word were phonemically balanced across each page of test Book A ...

Reliability of human-supervised formant-trajectory measurement for forensic voice comparison.
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2013 Acoustic-phonetic approaches to forensic voice comparison often include human-supervised measurement of vowel formants, but the reliability of such measurements is a matter of concern. This study assesses the within- and between-supervisor variability of
