Frication and Voicing Classification
Phonetic detail of voiced and unvoiced fricatives was examined using speech analysis tools. Outputs of eight f0 trackers were combined to give reliable voicing and f0 values. Log energy andMel frequency cepstral features were used to train a Gaussian classifier that objectively labeled speech frames for frication. Duration statistics were derived from the voicing and frication labels for distin...
متن کاملAcoustic Correlates of Voicing-frication Interaction in Fricatives
1. ABSTRACT This paper investigates the acoustic effects of source interaction in fricative speech sounds. A range of parameters has been employed, including a measure designed specifically to describe quantitatively the amplitude modulation of frication noise by voicing, a phenomenon which has mainly been qualitatively reported. The signal processing technique to extract this measure is presen...
متن کاملAmplitude modulation of frication noise by voicing saturates
The two distinct sound sources comprising voiced frication, voicing and frication, interact. One effect is that the periodic source at the glottis modulates the amplitude of the frication source originating in the vocal tract above the constriction. Voicing strength and modulation depth for frication noise were measured for sustained English voiced fricatives using high-pass filtering, spectral...
متن کاملSensitivity to Phonological Universals: The Case of Stops and Fricatives.
Linguistic evidence suggests that syllables like bdam (with stop-stop clusters) are less preferred than bzam (with stop-fricative combinations). Here, we demonstrate that English speakers manifest similar preferences despite no direct experience with either structure. Experiment 1 elicited syllable count for auditory materials (e.g., does bzam have one syllable or two?); Experiment 2 examined t...
متن کاملPhonological Context Effects for Voicing and Devoicing in French
We examine occurrences of categorical assimilation (neutralizations) in French, the perception of voiced and unvoiced word-final obstruents in different phonological contexts. We first show the categorical nature of the alternation (Exp. 1), supported in Exp. 2 by perceptual categorization data. In Exp. 3, the interpretation of this first percept appears to be corrected in certain contexts, ind...
