Phoneme-Level Duration Controllable Neural Text-to-Speech With Phoneme Embedding Skip Connection and Modified Gaussian Duration Modeling

IEEE Access
This paper proposes a simple but practically important and effective approach to improve phoneme duration expansion and contraction control in neural text-to-speech (TTS) systems for modifying the speaking rate of synthesized speech.

Patient‐Reported Communication Decline Following Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Objective decline in communication abilities following Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) in People with Parkinson's disease (PwP) is common; however, patient perspectives remain under‐investigated. Objectives This study examined subjective change in communicative efficacy using the Communicative Participation Item Bank (CPIB) in PwP ...

Voice and Speech in Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Background Motor speech disorders are early, common, and functionally limiting features of atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These impairments are underrecognized and undertreated in neurology clinics.

Deep Brain Stimulation of Caudal Zona Incerta for Parkinson's Disease: One‐Year Follow‐Up and Electric Field Simulations

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objective To evaluate the effects of bilateral caudal zona incerta (cZi) deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD) one year after surgery and to create anatomical improvement maps based on patient‐specific simulation of the electric field.

On a Supposed Dogma of Speech Perception Research: a Response to Appelbaum (1999)

Principia: An International Journal of Epistemology, 2009
. In this paper we purport to qualify the claim, advanced by Appelbaum (1999) that speech perception research, in the last 70 years or so, has endorsed a view on the nature of speech for which no evidence can be adduced and which has resisted ...

Fast and Accurate OOV Decoder on High-Level Features

, 2017
This work proposes a novel approach to out-of-vocabulary (OOV) keyword search (KWS) task. The proposed approach is based on using high-level features from an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, so called phoneme posterior based (PPB) features, for

The Cerebellar Cognitive‐Affective Syndrome Scale Reveals Consistent, Early, and Progressive Neuropsychological Deficits in Autosomal‐Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay: A Large International Cross‐Sectional Study

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neuropsychological deficits have been observed in patients with cerebellar damage, but never thoroughly investigated in autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay (ARSACS). Objectives The goal is the characterization of presence, severity, and profile of neuropsychological deficits in ARSACS using the cerebellar ...
