A Review on Enabling Technologies for Resilient and Traceable on-Machine Measurements

open access: yesJournal of Machine Engineering, 2020
On Machine Measurements are a key factor for shorter closed quality control loops in industrial manufacturing. Especially for the production of large components, they promote the first-time-right approach, which is highly desirable, due to small ...

Production and perception of English consonants by Yemeni EFL learners

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2023
Previous studies on the perception-production correlation focused mainly on transcriptions and native English speaker evaluations for production accuracy assessments; only a few included acoustic measurements.

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.

Developmental trends in voice onset time: some evidence for sex differences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This study reports on an investigation into the voice onset time (VOT) patterns of the plosives /p b t d/ in a group of 30 children aged 7 (n = 10), 9 (n = 10) and 11 (n = 10) years. Equal numbers of girls and boys participated in the study.

Closing and opening phase variability in dysphonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Four examples of the use of vocal fold contact phase measurement are discussed for unilateral paresis. In each case this aspect of voice quality is of greater importance than the physical measurement of loudness and pitch related parameters. For three of

Logopenic and Nonfluent Variants of Primary Progressive Aphasia Are Differentiated by Acoustic Measures of Speech Production [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Differentiation of logopenic (lvPPA) and nonfluent/agrammatic (nfvPPA) variants of Primary Progressive Aphasia is important yet remains challenging since it hinges on expert based evaluation of speech and language production. In this study acoustic measures of speech in conjunction with voxel-based morphometry were used to determine the success of the ...

Why and When Are Evidence‐Based Interventions Adopted in Paediatric Supportive Care? A Qualitative Exploration of the Determinants of Photobiomodulation Implementation

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...

Do airstream mechanisms influence tongue movement paths? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Velar consonants often show an elliptical pattern of tongue movement in symmetrical vowel contexts, but the forces responsible for this remain unclear. We here consider the role of overpressure (increased intraoral air pressure) behind the constriction ...
