Spanish dialects: phonetic transcription
It is well known that canonical Spanish, the dialectal variant ‘central’ of Spain, so called Castilian, can be transcribed by rules. This paper deals with the automatic grapheme to phoneme transcription rules in several Spanish dialects from Latin America. Spanish is a language spoken by more than 300 million people, has an important geographical dispersion compared among other languages and ha...
متن کاملAutomatic phonetic segmentation of Spanish emotional speech
To achieve high quality synthetic emotional speech, unitselection is the state-of-the-art technique. Nevertheless, a large expensive phonetically-segmented corpus is needed, and cost-effective automatic techniques should be studied. According to the HMM experiments in this paper: segmentation performance can depend heavily on the segmental or prosodic nature of the intended emotion (segmental e...
متن کاملDigital Audio - Psychoacoustical Localization of Sounds within the 3- Dimensional Soundstage
As objects vibrate, they cause changes in the air pressure, which our ears perceive as sounds that could be translated by our brains as speech, music or noise (Garba 2007b). The four basic characteristics of sound include frequency, amplitude, harmonics and direction from which a sound is coming. The frequency describes the rate at which the air vibrates per second, measured in hertz (Hz). Ampl...
متن کاملDetermining the effective features in classification of heart sounds using trained intelligent network and genetic algorithm
Heart diseases are among the most important causes of mortality in the world, especially in industrial countries. Using heart sounds and the features extracted from them are among the non-aggressive diagnosis and prognosis methods for heart diseases. In this study, the time-scale, Cepstral, frequency, temporal and turbulence features are saved and extracted from the heart sounds, and then they ...
متن کاملPhonetic Realizations of /sr/ Clusters in Latin American Spanish
In Peninsular Ibero-Romance varieties that retain postnuclear lingual fricatives before non-rhotic consonants, loss of the fricative before trills is the norm in colloquial speech. The data in (1a-c) exemplify fricative deletion in Castilian Spanish, Catalan, and Portuguese, respectively, although impressionistic descriptions in the literature often suggest concomitant lengthening of the trill,...
