Probabilistic SVM/GMM Classifier for Speaker-Independent Vowel Recognition in Continues Speech [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
In this paper, we discuss the issues in automatic recognition of vowels in Persian language. The present work focuses on new statistical method of recognition of vowels as a basic unit of syllables. First we describe a vowel detection system then briefly discuss how the detected vowels can feed to recognition unit.

Towards a dynamical model of English vowels. Evidence from diphthongisation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Phonetics 107, 101349 (2024)
Diphthong vowels exhibit a degree of inherent dynamic change, the extent of which can vary synchronically and diachronically, such that diphthong vowels can become monophthongs and vice versa. Modelling this type of change requires defining diphthongs in opposition to monophthongs.

Speech Recognition Oriented Vowel Classification Using Temporal Radial Basis Functions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Computing, Volume 1, Issue 1, pp 162-167, December 2009, 2009
The recent resurgence of interest in spatio-temporal neural network as speech recognition tool motivates the present investigation. In this paper an approach was developed based on temporal radial basis function "TRBF" looking to many advantages: few parameters, speed convergence and time invariance.

Comparing Speech Intelligibility in 3 to 5 Years Old Children with Cochlear Implants and Normal Children

open access: yesFunction and Disability Journal, 2018
Background and Objective: One of the positive outcomes of cochlear implantation is achieving intelligible speech. Therefore, the measurement of speech intelligibility is a standard criterion for assessing the effectiveness of cochlear implants (CIs). The

Analysis of the Word-Initial Segment with Reference to Lemmatising Zulu Nasal Nouns

open access: yesLexikos, 2012
<p>The process of lemmatising nasal nouns in the Zulu lexicon is problematic. The traditional method is to lemmatise a Zulu lexical noun by etymological noun-stem. This practice creates difficulties in harmonising lexical nouns with their syntactic

A Deep Generative Model of Vowel Formant Typology [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
What makes some types of languages more probable than others? For instance, we know that almost all spoken languages contain the vowel phoneme /i/; why should that be? The field of linguistic typology seeks to answer these questions and, thereby, divine the mechanisms that underlie human language.

A Generative Study of Phoneme System of Sarhaddi Balochi Dialect of Granchin [PDF]

open access: yesمطالعات زبان‌‌ها و گویش‌های غرب ایران, 2014
Generative linguists are specifically interested in phonology as an important part of the grammar of any language. Generative phonology the beginning of which can be attributed to Chomsky and Halle (1968), has been proposed in terms of specific patterns ...

Tonguescape: Exploring Language Models Understanding of Vowel Articulation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Vowels are primarily characterized by tongue position. Humans have discovered these features of vowel articulation through their own experience and explicit objective observation such as using MRI. With this knowledge and our experience, we can explain and understand the relationship between tongue positions and vowels, and this knowledge is helpful ...
