Perception, Speech, and Consciousness

1978
There are certain principles relating to the neural events that lead to perceptions of the various sensory experiences (Adrian 1947; Mountcastle 1975). Touch and vision have been most thoroughly investigated, but there is good reason to believe that all other sensory experiences are dependent upon similar neuronal mechanisms.

Speech Perception: Production for Perception

2006
Nooteboom (1975, 1983), Tatham (1970) and several other researchers introduced perception as one of the speaker’s principal goals: speakers aim to be perceived; almost all speech production models have adopted this basic idea to account for perceiver-oriented variability in the acoustic signal. An example of a wholly speaker-oriented model can be found

Speech Production and Perception [PDF]

, 2013
The main objective of research in speech processing is directed toward finding techniques for extracting features which, robustly, model a speech signal. Some of these features can be characterized by relatively simple models, while others may require more realistic models in both cases of speech production and perception ...

The Role of Intonation in Speech Perception

1975
Past research of intonation at the Institute for Perception Research has been concerned with describing melodic properties of utterances in terms of perceptually relevant pitch events, without taking into consideration their possible communicative functions.

Direct Perception of Speech

2018
The theory of speech perception as direct derives from a general direct-realist account of perception. A realist stance on perception is that perceiving enables occupants of an ecological niche to know its component layouts, objects, animals, and events.

Speech perception as pattern recognition

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1995
This work provides theoretical and empirical arguments in favor of an approach to phonetics that is called double-weak. It is so called because it assumes relatively weak constraints both on the articulatory gestures and on the auditory patterns that map phonological elements.

Speech perception in children with speech output disorders

Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2009
Research in the field of speech production pathology is dominated by describing deficits in output. However, perceptual problems might underlie, precede, or interact with production disorders. The present study hypothesizes that the level of the production disorders is linked to level of perception disorders, thus lower-order production problems (such ...

Speech Perception in Phonetics

2017
In their conversational interactions with speakers, listeners aim to understand what a speaker is saying, that is, they aim to arrive at the linguistic message, which is interwoven with social and other information, being conveyed by the input speech signal.

Perception of Speech and Speech-Like Sounds

1965
As a general topic, auditory perception can be divided a number of ways. From the standpoint of communication, one separation might be between classical auditory psychophysics, on the one hand, and the recognition of acoustic signals presented within a linguistic framework, on the other.

Psycho-acoustics and Speech Perception

1999
Computational models of speech pattern processing might be able to benefit a lot from sound and speech perception by humans. Psycho-acoustics has given us insight into the limits and the capabilities of peripheral hearing for, mainly, simple stationary sounds.
