Syllable-boundary magnitudes from jaw movement patterns
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2000The C/D model [O. Fujimura, J. Acoust. Soc. Jpn. (E) 13, 39–48 (1992)] describes rhythmic patterns of utterances by amplitude-controlled pulse trains, each pulse representing a syllable or a boundary. The syllable magnitude (pulse height) controls mandibular movement.

Syllable-Boundary Phenomena in Korean
Korean Studies, 1977Even a linguistically naive speaker can identify how many syllables there are in a given string, but linguists have not succeeded in determining a simple phonetic correlate that will identify a syllable and boundaries between syllables. It is probably for this reason that the syllable has often been considered quite unimportant, especially by such ...

Syllable boundaries and stress in speech segmentation
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1985When a word is embedded in a nonsense matrix such that it belongs to two syllables of the matrix, detection of the word is inhibited when the second syllable is full but not when it is reduced: Thus melt is detected significantly faster in [mɛltə∫] than in [mɛltajv]. The effect is not determined by matrix or syllable length or by implicit morphological

On Consonants and Syllable Boundaries
1984Arthur Bronstein, in his book The Pronounciation of American English (1960), follows the convention of dividing the sounds of the language into two classes—the consonants and the vowels. Within this rubric, he assigns the glottal stop [?], and the glottal fricative [h] to the consonant class, as other textbook authors do.

Subphonemic planning across syllable and word boundaries.
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2011Previous research demonstrated that there are no fixed motor programs or tasks in speech, and there is evidence for subphonemic planning in speech within a word across up to two phoneme boundaries [Derrick and Gick (Submitted)]. Because this evidence is word-internal, it could be suggested that speakers simply memorize many motor programs for each word

The syllable boundary in generative phonology
Canadian Journal of Linguistics/Revue canadienne de linguistique, 1979In Natural Generative Phonology (NGP), the only phonological rules are those which describe alternations that take place in environments that can be specified in purely phonetic terms. As indicated by Hooper, these “‘phonetic terms’ refer to phonological features (that have intrinsic phonetic content) and phonological boundaries (that have a necessary ...

Predicting stress and syllable boundaries from segmental timing
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1987Recent studies [Reilly and Port, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. Suppl. 1 78, S21 (1985)] show that timing measurements can be used to discriminate among items in a small vocabulary. Current efforts question the extent to which timing measurements can be used to augment basic segmental knowledge in a continuous, real-time speech recognition situation.

Tagging syllable boundaries with joint n-gram models
Interspeech 2007, 2007This paper presents a statistical method for the segmentation of words into syllables which is based on a joint n-gram model. Our system assigns syllable boundaries to phonetically transcribed words. The syllabification task was formulated as a tagging task. The syllable tagger was trained on syllableannotated phone sequences.

Tibetan Syllable-Based Functional Chunk Boundary Identification
2017Tibetan syntactic functional chunk parsing is aimed at identifying syntactic constituents of Tibetan sentences. In this paper, based on the Tibetan syntactic functional chunk description system, we propose a method which puts syllables in groups instead of word segmentation and tagging and use the Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) to identify the ...

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1990
Previous work [S. Nittrouer and M. Studdert-Kennedy, J. Speech Hear. Res. 30, 319–329 (1987)] demonstrated that young children based phonemic judgments of syllable-initial fricatives on the formant transitions of the following vowel to a greater extent than did older children or adults. In this study, three sets of stimuli were developed to investigate
