Speech Segmentation

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1970
This paper reports a study of speech segmentation for bandwidth compression by segment coding. A segmentation procedure was desired that would segment continuous speech into units that were suitable for both classification and subsequent synthesis. Several measures obtainable for short-time spectrum information were considered: over-all amplitude, the ...

Segmenting speech into words

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1980
Four experiments employed a listening for mispronunciations task to determine how listeners perceive an ordered series of words from a continuous, phonetically ambiguous stimulus. In experiments 1, 2, and 3, listeners’ reaction times to detect mispronunciations were obtained in phonological sequences that could be perceived as either one or two words ...

"Blind" speech segmentation: automatic segmentation of speech without linguistic knowledge

Proceeding of Fourth International Conference on Spoken Language Processing. ICSLP '96, 1996
A new automatic speech segmentation procedure, called the "Blind" speech segmentation, is presented. This procedure allows a speech sample to be segmented into sub-word units without the knowledge of any linguistic information (such as, orthographic or phonetic transcription).

Speech segmentation without speech recognition

2003 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2003. Proceedings. (ICASSP '03)., 2003
In this paper, we presented a semantic speech segmentation approach, in particular sentence segmentation, without speech recognition. In order to get phoneme level information without word recognition information, a novel vowel/consonant/pause (V/C/P) classification is proposed.

The Use of Discrete Meyer Wavelet for Speech Segmentation

2019 International Multi-Conference on Industrial Engineering and Modern Technologies (FarEastCon), 2019
This work describes the segmentation of oral speech in the Yakut language. The phonetic structure of the Yakut language is described. For segmentation of sound recording, wavelet analysis is used. The choice of a discrete Meyer wavelet is based.

Automatic Segmentation in Speech Synthesis

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2009
Systems and methods for automatically segmenting speech inventories. A set of Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are initialized using bootstrap data. The HMMs are next re-estimated and aligned to produce phone labels. The phone boundaries of the phone labels are then corrected using spectral boundary correction. Optionally, this process of using the spectral-

Speech segmentation in different perspectives

Journal of Speech Sciences, 2019
This special issue of JoSS is one of a series of initiatives undertaken by the Lab of Empirical and Experimental Linguistic Studies (LEEL) at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) together with several international partners on the important ...

Literacy training and speech segmentation

Cognition, 1986
Abstract New groups of illiterate and ex-illiterate adults, comparable to those of Morais et. al (1979), were given a battery of tasks designed to assess the specificity of the effect of literacy training on speech segmentation. As in the previous study, a strong difference was observed between the two groups on the task of deleting the initial ...

A Generative Model for Speech Segmentation and Obfuscation for Remote Health Monitoring

International Conference on Wearable and Implantable Body Sensor Networks, 2019
The prevalence of smart devices has enabled remote health monitoring outside of conventional clinical settings, and has reduced health care delivery cost.

Infant‐Directed Speech Facilitates Word Segmentation

Infancy, 2005
AbstractThere are reasons to believe that infant‐directed (ID) speech may make language acquisition easier for infants. However, the effects of ID speech on infants' learning remain poorly understood. The experiments reported here assess whether ID speech facilitates word segmentation from fluent speech.
