Oromotor Nonverbal Performance and Speech Motor Control: Theory and Review of Empirical Evidence. [PDF]
Brain Sci, 2023 This position paper offers a perspective on the long-standing debate concerning the role of oromotor, nonverbal gestures in understanding typical and disordered speech motor control secondary to neurological disease. Oromotor nonverbal tasks are employed

Active inference and speech motor control. [PDF]
Psychon Bull RevAbstract Active inference is a domain-general theory of brain functioning which reconceptualises the perception–action interface in terms of a common process of minimization of sensory prediction errors. Such accounts have been extensively applied to the control of manual action guided by visual sensory feedback; however, they have ...

Nonword Repetition and Speech Motor Control in Children. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2015 This study examined how familiarity of word structures influenced articulatory control in children and adolescents during repetition of real words (RWs) and nonwords (NWs). A passive reflective marker system was used to track articulator movement. Measures of accuracy were obtained during repetition of RWs and NWs, and kinematic analysis of movement ...

The FACTS model of speech motor control: Fusing state estimation and task-based control. [PDF]
PLoS Comput Biol, 2019 We present a new computational model of speech motor control: the Feedback-Aware Control of Tasks in Speech or FACTS model. FACTS employs a hierarchical state feedback control architecture to control simulated vocal tract and produce intelligible speech.

Longitudinal development of speech motor control: Motor and linguistic factors. [PDF]
J Mot Learn Dev, 2015 Lip shape in adult talkers is primarily driven by vertical opening; however, little is known about how children converge on this highly organized and efficient lip shape pattern. This longitudinal study investigated the development of lip shape control and its relation to speech and vocabulary acquisition in 28 typically developing children between 3 ...

Bridging Dynamical Systems and Optimal Trajectory Approaches to Speech Motor Control With Dynamic Movement Primitives. [PDF]
Front Psychol, 2019 Current models of speech motor control rely on either trajectory-based control (DIVA, GEPPETO, ACT) or a dynamical systems approach based on feedback control (Task Dynamics, FACTS).

Laryngeal Motor Cortex and Control of Speech in Humans [PDF]
Neuroscientist, 2011 Speech production is one of the most complex and rapid motor behaviors, and it involves a precise coordination of more than 100 laryngeal, orofacial, and respiratory muscles. Yet we lack a complete understanding of laryngeal motor cortical control during production of speech and other voluntary laryngeal behaviors.

Speech planning as an index of speech motor control maturity [PDF]
Interspeech 2013, 2013 This paper investigates speech motor control maturity in 4-year-old Canadian French children. Acoustic and ultrasound data recorded from four children, and for comparison, from four adults, are presented and analyzed. Maturity of speech motor control is assessed by measuring two characteristics: token-to-token variability of isolated vowels, as a ...
