Perceptual Assimilation and Discrimination of Non-Native Vowel Contrasts
Phonetica, 2014 Research on language-specific tuning in speech perception has focused mainly on consonants, while that on non-native vowel perception has failed to address whether the same principles apply. Therefore, non-native vowel perception was investigated here in

Vowel Spectra, Vowel Spaces, and Vowel Identification [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1970 Twelve Dutch vowels, each pronounced by 50 male speakers, were analyzed in 18 filter bands comparable in bandwidth with the ear's critical band. By considering the sound levels (in decibels) in these filter bands as dimensions, with a principal-component analysis the 18 dimensions per sound were reduced to four factors which together explain 75% of the
