Speaker Normalization Using Cortical Strip Maps: A Neural Model for Steady State Vowel Identification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Auditory signals of speech are speaker-dependent, but representations of language meaning are speaker-independent. Such a transformation enables speech to be understood from different speakers.

Robust Dysarthric Speech Recognition with GAN Enhancement and LLM Correction

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study tackles dysarthric speech recognition by combining generative adversarial network (GAN)‐generated synthetic data with large language model (LLM)‐based error correction. The approach integrates three key elements: an improved CycleGAN to generate synthetic dysarthric speech for data augmentation, a multimodal automatic speech recognition core

Speech Biomarkers From Smartphone Calls Track Progression in REM Sleep Behavior Disorder and Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective This 24‐month longitudinal study involving isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD), early‐stage Parkinson's disease (PD), and matched healthy control subjects aimed to assess whether acoustic speech features from real‐world smartphone calls provide passive progressive biomarkers in synucleinopathies.

A New Approach to the Formant Measuring Problem

open access: yesProceedings, 2019
Formants are characteristic frequency components in human speech that are caused by resonances in the vocal tract during speech production. They are of primary concern in acoustic phonetics and speech recognition.

Parental Stress and Caregiver Role Modulate Child–Caregiver Prosodic Synchrony in Autism: A Computational Analysis

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Parental stress influences parent–child interactions in typical development and is a prognostic factor of autism outcome. However, we still do not know to what extent parental stress affects parent–child interactions and whether caregiver role matters.

Impact of prominence type on the coarticulation of vowels following palatalized consonants

open access: yesВестник Самарского университета: История, педагогика, филология
The quantitative impact of prominence (neutral vs emphatic stress) on the coarticulation of the Russian low [æ], mid [e] and high [i] front vowels is evaluated in CV sequences with palatalized consonants of various places of obstruction.
