Detection times for vowels versus consonants
This paper reports two experiments with vowels and consonants as phoneme detection targets in real words. In the first experiment, two relatively distinct vowels were compared with two confusible stop consonants. Response times to the vowels were longer than to the consonants. Response times correlated negatively with target phoneme length. In the second, two relatively distinct vowels were com...
متن کاملThe Role of Consonants and Vowels in Continuous Speech Processing
Speech is produced mainly in continuous streams containing several words. Listeners can use the transitional probability (TP) between adjacent and nonadjacent syllables to segment ‘‘words’’ from a continuous stream of artificial speech, much as they use TPs to organize a variety of perceptual continua. It is thus possible that a general-purpose statistical device exploits any speech unit to ach...
متن کاملIdentify Vowels and Consonants of Punjabi Speech Using SVM
Speech consists of acoustic pressure waves created by the voluntary movements of anatomical structures in the human speech production system. These waveforms are broadly classified into voiced and unvoiced speech. Voiced sounds (vowels for example), produce quasi-periodic pulses of air which are acoustically filtered as they propagate through the vocal tract. The main distinction between vowels...
متن کاملThe contribution of consonants versus vowels to word recognition in fluent speech
Three perceptual experiments were conducted to test the relative importance of vowels vs. consonants to recognition of uent speech. Sentences were selected from the TIMIT corpus to obtain approximately equal numbers of vowels and consonants within each sentence and equal durations across the set of sentences. In experiments 1 and 2, subjects listened to (a) unaltered TIMIT sentences; (b) senten...
متن کاملConsonants and vowels in orthographic representations.
It has been argued that orthographic representations-the abstract mental representations of the spellings of words-include orthography-specific information regarding the consonant/vowel (CV) identity of the individual letters that make up a word's spelling. This hypothesis has been used to explain the finding that the substitution errors in the spelling of certain dysgraphic individuals exhibit...
