Investigation of emotion classification using speech rhythm metrics
2013 IEEE Digital Signal Processing and Signal Processing Education Meeting (DSP/SPE), 2013The processing of emotion during speech production has recently become a subject of increasing interest and attention for many languages. Such research has a wide range of applications in many different fields. The Arabic language, however, has thus far received little attention in this area, with the exception of a limited number of papers at some ...

Impact of segmentation rules on the rhythm metrics.
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008Rhythm of speech in the literature of the past decade is quantified using measures of durations: first order, such as mean duration and percentage of the total sample, or second order, such as variance and pairwise variability index. Results of different studies, however, vary even when the same materials and speech mode are used and imply uncertainty ...

How stable are acoustic metrics of contrastive speech rhythm?
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2010Acoustic metrics of contrastive speech rhythm, based on vocalic and intervocalic interval durations, are intended to capture stable typological differences between languages. They should consequently be robust to variation between speakers, sentence materials, and measurers. This paper assesses the impact of these sources of variation on the metrics %V

Investigating speaker gender using rhythm metrics in Arabic dialects
2013 8th International Workshop on Systems, Signal Processing and their Applications (WoSSPA), 2013This paper investigates the relationship between speakers' gender and rhythm metrics (i.e., %V, ΔC, and ΔV) for three Arabic dialects, namely Modern Standard Arabic, Saudi Arabic, and Levantine. To carry out this study, three corpora have been used: the West Point, Saudi Accented Arabic Voice Bank (SAAVB), and BBN/AUB DARPA Babylon, for Modern Standard

An experimental study of Korean rhythm structure on the basis of rhythm metrics
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2012This paper investigates the rhythm structure of Korean. Metrics used in this study included %V, ΔC, Varco V, nPVI-V, and rPVI-C, which have been shown to reflect differences in rhythm structure (stress-, syllable-, and mora-timing) across languages. Ten female native Koreans each produced 20 short declarative Korean sentences. The rhythm metric results

Classification of Regional Accent Using Speech Rhythm Metrics
2019In this paper, MSA speech rhythm metrics were used to classify two regional accent (northern vs. southern regions) using an MLP - neural network classifier. Seven rhythm metrics vectors were computed from a speech dataset taken from ALGerian Arabic Speech Database (ALGASD) using both Interval Measures (IM) and Control/Compensation Index (CCI ...
