Acoustic correlates of perceived syllable prominence in German
This paper explores the relationship between perceived syllable prominence and the acoustic properties of a speech utterance. It is aimed at establishing a link between the linguistic meaning of an utterance in terms of sentence modality and focus and its underlying prosodic features. Applications of such knowledge can be found in computerbased pronunciation training as well as general automati...
متن کاملArticulatory mechanisms underlying incremental compensatory vowel shortening in German
The main aim of this study was to investigate the articulatory mechanisms underlying incremental vowel shortening in German. Five speakers were recorded reading sentences with target words that contained either simplex (one consonant) or complex (two consonants) onsets and codas, respectively. Acoustic measurements showed that both onset and coda clusters induce vowel shortening. Two potential ...
متن کاملSyllable-based text-to-phoneme conversion for German
Due to the non−trivial relationship between the orthographic form and the chain of sounds in a spoken utterance in German, the text−to−phoneme conversion (TPC), as part of a text−to− speech system, is not a negligible task. Many methods that use a fixed set of rules for TPC take into account the morphological structure of words. Even though this approach results in a high accuracy, it has one m...
متن کاملWord and syllable models for German text-to-speech synthesis
The correct pronunciation of unknown or novel words is one of the biggest challenges for text-to-speech systems. In this paper we describe the implementation of unknown word analysis as a central component of the text analysis module in the Bell Labs German text-to-speech system. The implementation is based on a model of the morphological structure of words and on the study of the productivity ...
متن کاملOpen Security Issues in German Healthcare Telematics
Developments in German healthcare telematics aim at connecting existing information systems of various service providers and health insurers via a common network. Such a linking of different systems and infrastructure elements creates a complex situation that has to deal with high priority requirements for data security, data safety, and data integrity as it concerns sensitive data such as pers...
