Effects of syllable structure and syllable boundary on segment duration in Seoul Korean
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2000The present study reports results of an investigation into Korean durational patterns with respect to syllable structure and syllable boundary. The main questions raised in this study were (1) whether different preceding syllable structures contribute to the durational patterns of the following segmental durations: closure duration, voice onset timing (

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

Sentence Boundary Disambiguation for Tibetan Based on Attention Mechanism at the Syllable Level
ACM Transactions on Asian and Low-Resource Language Information Processing, 2022Tibetan is a low-resource language with few existing electronic reference materials. The goal of Tibetan sentence boundary disambiguation (SBD) is to segment long text into sentences, and it is the foundation for downstream tasks corpora building. This study implemented the Tibetan SBD at the syllable level to avoid

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 ...

On the weakness of using strong syllables as word boundary markers.
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1992Previous research has shown that a strong–weak syllable distinction may play an important role in word segmentation. Cutler and Norris [JEP:HPP 14, 113–121 (1988)] asked subjects to identify words at the beginnings of two syllable nonwords. Subjects were faster to identify a word when the second syllable was weak than when it was strong.

The Use of Prosodic Features to Derive Word and Syllable Boundaries
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1973Spoken integers between 0 and 999 (e.g. “three hundred and seventy two”) were recorded by four speakers. For each utterance, a measure of the waveform amplitude (called the envelope) and pitch period estimates were recorded and plotted. It is shown that these two correlates can be used to predict word and syllable boundaries within each spoken integer.

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.

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.

Automatic marking of Punjabi syllables boundaries in a sound file
2010 2nd International Conference on Signal Processing Systems, 2010Automatic Speech segmentation is one of the foremost important field for controlling the simulation of speech without intervening of human being. Segmenting the continuous speech signal according to the phonetic transcription is a fundamental task in any voice activated system. Manual segmentation is tedious, time consuming and error prone.

Morphophonographic regularities in German: the graphematic syllable boundary
Written Language & Literacy, 2014It is widely acknowledged that the German writing system is not only phonographically structured but also represents morphological information (besides other grammatical information). Stem constancy, i.e. the graphic resemblance between morphologically related words, is the most prominent example of this.
