Use what you can: storage, abstraction processes, and perceptual adjustments help listeners recognize reduced forms
Three eye-tracking experiments tested whether native listeners recognized reduced Dutch words better after having heard the same reduced words, or different reduced words of the same reduction type and whether familiarization with one reduction type helps listeners to deal with another reduction type. In the exposure phase, a segmental reduction group was exposed to /b/-reductions (e.g., minder...
متن کاملPhonetic identification by elderly normal and hearing-impaired listeners.
Young normal-hearing listeners, elderly normal-hearing listeners, and elderly hearing-impaired listeners were tested on a variety of phonetic identification tasks. Where identity was cued by stimulus duration, the elderly hearing-impaired listeners evidenced normal identification functions. On a task in which there were multiple cues to vowel identity, performance was also normal. On a/b d g/id...
متن کاملListeners Recognize Speakers’ Habitual Utterance-Final Voice Quality
This study tests the hypothesis that, among the other paralinguistic information conveyed by voice qualities, irregular vocal fold vibration (glottalization) can serve as a cue to speaker identity. Earlier studies that have reported systematic differences across speakers in the rate and type of intermittent glottalization support this idea. Still, it remains an open question whether human liste...
متن کاملCan Cognitive Scientists Help Computers Recognize Irony?
This workshop aims to bring together researchers in cognitive science and computer science with a shared interest in irony. Irony detection is an especially difficult problem for natural language processing. Unlike other types of classification tasks, the difficulty of identifying irony is not alleviated by ‘throwing more data’ at the problem. Rather, it seems a different kind of data is needed...
متن کاملPhonetic Models for Generating Spelling Variants
Proper names, whether English or non-English, have several different spellings when transliterated from a non-English source language into English. Knowing the different variations can significantly improve the results of name-searches on various source texts, especially when recall is important. In this paper we propose two novel phonetic models to generate numerous candidate variant spellings...
