Automatic discriminative measurement of voice onset time
We describe a discriminative algorithm for automatic VOT measurement, considered as an application of predicting structured output from speech. In contrast to previous studies which use customized rules, in our approach a function is trained on manually labeled examples, using an online algorithm to predict the burst and voicing onsets (and hence VOT). The feature set used is customized for det...
متن کاملDiscrimination of voice onset time in infancy.
In an effort to determine whether infants can discriminate speech sounds on the basis of a single acoustic cue, timing onset of periodic voicing, two experiments were conducted employing synthetic speech sounds. Naturally produced syllable pairs were also used for comparison. In the first experiment infants evidenced discrimination of a naturally produced /ba/ versus /pa/ pair and a naturally /...
متن کاملTonal Effects on Voice Onset Time
This study examines the influence of lexical tone on voice onset time (VOT) in Mandarin and Hakka spoken in Taiwan. The examination of VOT values for Mandarin and Hakka word-initial stops /p, t, k, p, t, k/ followed by three vowels /i, u, a/ in different lexical tones revealed that lexical tone has significant influence on the VOT values for stops. The results are important as they suggest that...
متن کاملPerception of sine-wave analogs of voice onset time stimuli.
It has been argued that perception of stop consonant voicing contrasts is based on auditory mechanisms responsible for the resolution of temporal order. As one source of evidence, category boundaries for nonspeech stimuli whose components vary in relative onset time are reasonably close to the labeling boundary for a labial stop voiced-voiceless continuum. However, voicing boundaries change con...
متن کاملVoice Stress Analysis using Linear Predictive Coding in MATLAB
Speech in humans is generated by a series of formants generated by the resonances in the nasal, pharyngeal and vocal tracts. Linear prediction of speech is one of the most widely used techniques for analysis of speech samples. Voice stress analysis as a field of study holds immense importance to human life. Stress analysis has been used in critical situation endangering life and in several medi...
