Quantitative and descriptive comparison of four acoustic analysis systems: vowel measurements.
Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research, 2014 PURPOSE This study examines accuracy and comparability of 4 trademarked acoustic analysis software packages (AASPs): Praat, WaveSurfer, TF32, and CSL by using synthesized and natural vowels. Features of AASPs are also described.

Modeling Consonant-Vowel Coarticulation for Articulatory Speech Synthesis
PLoS ONE, 2013 A central challenge for articulatory speech synthesis is the simulation of realistic articulatory movements, which is critical for the generation of highly natural and intelligible speech.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Uniparental disomy (UPD) is a rare phenomenon in which both copies of a chromosome are inherited from a single parent. This can lead to genomic imprinting disorders and recessive disorders due to the presence of recessive pathogenic variants in both alleles. Additionally, depending on the mechanisms by which UPD occurs, mosaic aneuploidies may

Vowel Phoneme Segmentation for Speaker Identification Using an ANN-Based Framework
Journal of Intelligent Systems, 2013 Vowel phonemes are a part of any acoustic speech signal. Vowel sounds occur in speech more frequently and with higher energy. Therefore, vowel phoneme can be used to extract different amounts of speaker discriminative information in situations where ...

Detrending the Waveforms of Steady-State Vowels
Entropy, 2020 Steady-state vowels are vowels that are uttered with a momentarily fixed vocal tract configuration and with steady vibration of the vocal folds. In this steady-state, the vowel waveform appears as a quasi-periodic string of elementary units called pitch ...

Speech and Language Disorders Associated With 7q31 Deletions Implicating FOXP2
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Some 7q31 deletions encompass FOXP2, a gene long associated with speech and language disorders. Intragenic pathogenic FOXP2 variants cause FOXP2‐related speech and language disorder, which has been well characterized in the literature. Conversely, the phenotype associated with 7q31 deletions is neglected.

Identification of vowels in “vowel-less” syllables [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1977 This study investigated the importance of three kinds of acoustic information for the perception of American English monophthongs: steady-state frequencies, formant transitions, and syllabic duration. B + Vowel + B syllables containing nine vowels spoken by a male talker were digitized and modified to produce six sets of stimuli: (1) tokens in which ...

CLCN4‐Related Neurodevelopmental Condition: Characterization of Speech and Language Abilities
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Speech and language difficulties are a core feature of the CLCN4‐related neurodevelopmental condition, but these have not been well described. Here we systematically phenotype speech and language in 13 participants (10 female, aged 1 year 10 months–41 years 10 months) with pathogenic CLCN4 variants (12 missense de novo, 1 premature stop codon ...

Austerity's afterlives? The case of community asset transfer in the UK
The Geographical Journal, EarlyView., 2023 Short Abstract Community infrastructure and the care that it provides has been at the sharp end of swingeing government cuts brought about through austere economics and politics. In the UK, a manifestation, and legacy, of this process is Community Asset Transfer (CAT).

Auditory preattentive processing of Thai vowel change perception in consonant-vowel (CV) syllables [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2004 Event-related potential (ERP) responses to infrequently presented spoken deviant syllables /pi/ among repetitive standard /pc/ syllables were recorded in Thai subjects who ignored these stimuli while reading books of their choices.
