A Framework for Bioacoustic Vocalization Analysis Using Hidden Markov Models [PDF]

, 2009
Using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) as a recognition framework for automatic classification of animal vocalizations has a number of benefits, including the ability to handle duration variability through nonlinear time alignment, the ability to incorporate ...

Perception of temporally contrasted Japanese words by Spanish-English bilinguals and American English monolinguals [PDF]

JASA Express Letters, 2022
Japanese and English use temporal cues within vowels, suggesting an audio-processing advantage for temporally-cued contrasts, while Spanish does not.

Language specificity in cortical tracking of speech rhythm at the mora, syllable, and foot levels

Scientific Reports, 2022
Recent research shows that adults’ neural oscillations track the rhythm of the speech signal. However, the extent to which this tracking is driven by the acoustics of the signal, or by language-specific processing remains unknown.

Speech sound categorization: The contribution of non-auditory and auditory cortical regions

NeuroImage, 2022
Which processes in the human brain lead to the categorical perception of speech sounds? Investigation of this question is hampered by the fact that categorical speech perception is normally confounded by acoustic differences in the stimulus.

Lexicality and frequency in specific language impairment: accuracy and error data from two nonword repetition tests [PDF]

, 2010
Purpose: Deficits in phonological working memory and deficits in phonological processing have both been considered potential explanatory factors in Specific Language Impairment (SLI).

Data-driven Extraction of Intonation Contour Classes [PDF]

, 2007
In this paper we introduce the first steps towards a new datadriven method for extraction of intonation events that does not require any prerequisite prosodic labelling.

An Empirical Study of Speech Processing in the Brain by Analyzing the Temporal Syllable Structure in Speech-input Induced EEG

IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2019
Clinical applicability of electroencephalography (EEG) is well established, however the use of EEG as a choice for constructing brain computer interfaces to develop communication platforms is relatively recent.

Speech Processes in Syllable Recall [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1971
A new method for evaluating speech quality was investigated to supplement articulation tests. Subjects recalled a single target syllable from a randomized list presented at various rates. The target syllable either immediately preceded or followed a predesignated cue syllable which occurred at random serial positions.

Multi-Talker Speech Promotes Greater Knowledge-Based Spoken Mandarin Word Recognition in First and Second Language Listeners

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020
Spoken word recognition involves a perceptual tradeoff between the reliance on the incoming acoustic signal and knowledge about likely sound categories and their co-occurrences as words.
