Estimating the active space of male koala bellows: propagation of cues to size and identity in a Eucalyptus forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Examining how increasing distance affects the information content of vocal signals is fundamental for determining the active space of a given species’ vocal communication system.

Boundaries of word-formation. New reflections on old things

open access: yesLietuvių Kalba, 2020
The attitude that word-formation fully coincides with derivation has been well established in the Lithuanian linguistics. The means of formation that fall outside derivation are regarded as peripheries of derivation that are not worth a considerable ...

Inter-Trial Formant Variability in Speech Production Is Actively Controlled but Does Not Affect Subsequent Adaptation to a Predictable Formant Perturbation

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
Despite ample evidence that speech production is associated with extensive trial-to-trial variability, it remains unclear whether this variability represents merely unwanted system noise or an actively regulated mechanism that is fundamental for ...

Formants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Formant frequencies are the positions of the local maxima of the power spectral envelope of a sound signal. They arise from acoustic resonances of the vocal tract air column, and they provide substantial information about both consonants and vowels. In running speech, formants are crucial in signaling the movements with respect to place of articulation.

Formant onsets and formant transitions as developmental cues to vowel perception [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2011
The purpose of this study was to determine whether children give more perceptual weight than do adults to dynamic spectral cues versus static cues. Listeners were 10 children between the ages of 3;8 and 4;1 (mean 3;11) and ten adults between the ages of 23;10 and 32;0 (mean 25;11).

The Study of Vowel Space and Formant Structure in Mazani Language

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation, 2020
Objective: One of the parameters showing the correct phonetic and phonological development is the correct and clear articulation of vowels is achieved by changing the shape of vocal cords through altering the height and position of the tongue and the ...

Effects of the Rate of Formant-Frequency Variation on the Grouping of Formants in Speech Perception [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Research in Otolaryngology, 2011
How speech is separated perceptually from other speech remains poorly understood. Recent research suggests that the ability of an extraneous formant to impair intelligibility depends on the modulation of its frequency, but not its amplitude, contour.

The effect of cochlear implantation on the acoustic features of Farsi vowels by hearing-impaired children [PDF]

open access: yesزبان پژوهی, 2020
Cochlear implantation (CI) is a preferred treatment for severe-to-profound sensory neural hearing loss and has caused significant improvement in the language ability of cochlear implantees compared to the hearing aided patients.

Identification and discrimination of sweep formants [PDF]

open access: yesPerception & Psychophysics, 1989
Earlier identification experiments with sweep tones are repeated with rising and falling single formant (band) sweeps, with durations ranging from 15 to 40 msec and sweep rates from 0 to 40 oct/sec. Steady-state portions of 100-msec duration are then added to the sweeps.
