Perceptually Informed Quantification of Speech Rhythm in Pairwise Variability Indices
Two previous experiments demonstrated that f0 and duration are interdependent in the perception of rhythmic groups in speech and sentence rhythmicality, and that the relative weighting of tonal and durational cues depends on listeners' native language. The listeners were native speakers of Swiss German, Swiss French, or Metropolitan French (i.e. from France). The experiment reported here invest...
متن کاملVariability of speech rhythm in synchronous speech
Speakers are able to speak in synchrony to another speaker or to a recording of another speaker. The present research studied whether and, if yes, speakers change their speech rhythm when synchronizing to another speaker. We developed a measure (SRratio) which monitors on a scale between 0 and 1 whether the durational characteristics of a speaker’s synchronous speech are closer to his/her own r...
متن کاملEstonian rhythm and the Pairwise Variability Index
The Pairwise Variability Index (PVI), a measure of how much unit-to-unit variation there is in speech, has been used as a correlate of rhythmic impressions such as ‘syllable-timed’ and ‘stress-timed’. Grabe and Low (2002) included Estonian among a number of languages for which they calculated the durational PVI for vowels and for intervocalic intervals, but other than that Estonian rhythm has n...
متن کاملQuantification of Speech Rhythm in Norwegian as a Second Language
This paper looks into the question of how to quantify rhythm in Norwegian spoken as a second language by speakers from different language backgrounds. The speech material for this study was taken from existing recordings from the Language Encounters project and consisted of sentences read by natives and speakers from six different L1s. Measurements of syllable durations and speech rate were mad...
متن کاملQuantification of rhythm problems in disordered speech: a re-evaluation.
Disordered speech can present with rhythmic problems, impacting on an individual's ability to communicate. Effective treatment relies on the availability of sensitive methods to characterize the problem. Rhythm metrics based on segmental durations originally designed for cross-linguistic research have the potential to provide such information. However, these measures may be associated with prob...
