Some Characteristics of Stop Consonants

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1959
Stop-vowel syllables were synthesized by use of both the cascaded resonant circuit (POVO) and the dynamical vocal tract analog (DAVO). Variation of formant positions or of articulatory configurations, intensity envelope, and inflection of fundamental frequency were controlled. A noise source was used as excitation for unvoiced stop consonants. Unvoiced

Effects of hearing loss and spectral shaping on identification and neural response patterns of stop-consonant stimuli.

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2006
In order to determine the effects of hearing loss and spectral shaping on a dynamic spectral speech cue, behavioral identification and neural response patterns of stop-consonant stimuli varying along the /b-d-g/ place-of-articulation continuum were ...

Lip and jaw kinematics in bilabial stop consonant production.

Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research, 1997
This paper reports two experiments, each designed to clarify different aspects of bilabial stop consonant production. The first one examined events during the labial closure using kinematic recordings in combination with records of oral air pressure and ...

Simplification of /s/ + Stop Consonant Clusters

Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1984
This longitudinal study examined individual patterns and changes in /s/ + stop cluster simplifications of six normally developing children. Subjects produced selected words containing initial voiced and voiceless stops and /s/+ stop clusters at monthly intervals.

Contrast effects do not underlie effects of preceding liquids on stop-consonant identification by humans.

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2000
These experiments explored the claim by A. Lotto and K. Kluender (1998) that frequency contrast explains listeners' compensations for coarticulation in the case of liquid consonants coarticulating with following stops.

Acoustic and spectral patterns in young children's stop consonant productions.

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2009
The aim of this study was to examine the acoustic and spectral patterns of stop articulation in the speech of pre-pubescent children. A set of voiceless stop consonants, /ptk/, produced by a group of adults and typically developing children 3-5 years of ...

On the classification of stop consonants (1939)

Journal of the International Phonetic Association, 2010
The reprinted text entitled ‘On the classification of stop consonants’ was written by J. C. Catford, in original phonetic transcription, for the 1939 January–March issue (vol. 65) of Le Maître Phonétique and is an example of the article de fond type of contribution. J. C.

Perception of vowel features in temporally-segmented noise portions of stop-consonant CV syllables.

Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1979
The ability of listeners to identify vowel features, given only segments of the aperiodic portion of CVs, was investigated. Segments of the aperiodic portions of stop consonant CVs, increasing in duration in 10-msec steps from onset, were identified by ...

A constraint satisfaction model for recognition of stop consonant-vowel (SCV) utterances

IEEE Transactions on Speech and Audio Processing, 2002
We propose a model for recognition of utterances of consonant-vowel (CV) units. The acoustic-phonetic knowledge of the CV classes is incorporated in the form of constraints of a constraint satisfaction model.

PHONETIC AND PHONOLOGICAL REPRESENTATION OF STOP CONSONANT VOICING

, 1984
This paper argues for a more structured view of the relation between the phonological feature [voice] and its specific phonetic implementations. Under the theory of universal phonetics proposed here, the implementation of [voice] is sharply constrained ...
