The Influence of Different Prosodic Cues on Word Segmentation

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
A prerequisite for spoken language learning is segmenting continuous speech into words. Amongst many possible cues to identify word boundaries, listeners can use both transitional probabilities between syllables and various prosodic cues.

Phonemic Segmentation and Labelling using the MAUS Technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We describe the pronunciation model of the automatic segmentation technique MAUS based on a data-driven Markov process and a new evaluation measure for phonemic transcripts relative symmetric accuracy; results are given for the MAUS segmentation and ...

Amharic Speech Search Using Text Word Query Based on Automatic Sentence-like Segmentation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
More than 7000 languages are spoken in the world today. Amharic is one of the languages spoken in the East African country Ethiopia. A lot of speech data is being made every day in different languages as machines are getting better at processing and have

Constrained structure of ancient Chinese poetry facilitates speech content grouping

open access: yes, 2020
Ancient Chinese poetry is constituted by structured language that deviates from ordinary language usage [1, 2]; its poetic genres impose unique combinatory constraints on linguistic elements [3].

Using the beat histogram for speech rhythm description and language identification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we present a novel approach for the description of speech rhythm and the extraction of rhythm-related features for automatic language identification (LID).

Early Word Segmentation Behind the Mask

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
Infants have been shown to rely both on auditory and visual cues when processing speech. We investigated the impact of COVID-related changes, in particular of face masks, in early word segmentation abilities.

Infants segment words from songs - an EEG study

open access: yes, 2020
Children’s songs are omnipresent and highly attractive stimuli in infants’ input. Previous work suggests that infants process linguistic–phonetic information from simplified sung melodies.

WORD BASED TAMIL SPEECH RECOGNITION USING TEMPORAL FEATURE BASED SEGMENTATION [PDF]

open access: yesICTACT Journal on Image and Video Processing, 2015
Speech recognition system requires segmentation of speech waveform into fundamental acoustic units. Segmentation is a process of decomposing the speech signal into smaller units.

Integrating Prosodic and Lexical Cues for Automatic Topic Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We present a probabilistic model that uses both prosodic and lexical cues for the automatic segmentation of speech into topically coherent units. We propose two methods for combining lexical and prosodic information using hidden Markov models and ...
