Intelligibility of sung words In polytextual settings
Three experiments used word-spotting to examine influences of phonetic and musical parameters on intelligibility of closed-set but unpredictable words in polytextual singing. Main comparisons were: 3 musical genres (medieval polyphonic motet, similar but homophonic motet, jingle); harmony (consonant, dissonant); keyword phonetic properties (‘acoustic contrast’, vowel length, vowel quality); con...
متن کاملEffects of visual information on intelligibility of open and closed class words in predictable sentences produced by speakers with dysarthria.
This study examined the independent and interactive effects of visual information and linguistic class of words on intelligibility of dysarthric speech. Seven speakers with dysarthria participated in the study, along with 224 listeners who transcribed speech samples in audiovisual (AV) or audio-only (AO) listening conditions. Orthographic transcriptions from listeners were scored for the number...
متن کاملThe information conveyed by words in sentences.
A method is presented for calculating the amount of information conveyed to a hearer by a speaker emitting a sentence generated by a probabilistic grammar known to both parties. The method applies the work of Grenander (1967) to the intermediate states of a top-down parser. This allows the uncertainty about structural ambiguity to be calculated at each point in a sentence. Subtracting these val...
متن کاملPictures in sentences: understanding without words.
To understand a sentence, the meanings of the words in the sentence must be retrieved and combined. Are these meanings represented within the language system (the lexical hypothesis) or are they represented in a general conceptual system that is not restricted to language (the conceptual hypothesis)? To evaluate these hypotheses, sentences were presented in which a pictured object replaced a wo...
متن کاملEffect of linguistic masker on the intelligibility of Mandarin sentences
The linguistic content of the masker is important for the benefit of masking release in understanding noise-corrupted speech. The present work investigated how Mandarin sentence recognition is influenced by background noise with different linguistic content via two studies, i.e., speech perception and intelligibility prediction. Mandarin sentences were corrupted by Mandarin-, Cantonese-, and En...
