Sensorimotor control of speech production: models and data
نویسنده
چکیده
A theoretical, model-based overview of speech production is described in which the goals of phonemic speech movements are in auditory and somatosensory domains and the movements are controlled by a combination of feedback and feedforward mechanisms. Examples of experimental results are presented that provide support for the overview.

[Modeling developmental aspects of sensorimotor control of speech production].
BACKGROUND Detailed knowledge of the neurophysiology of speech acquisition is important for understanding the developmental aspects of speech perception and production and for understanding developmental disorders of speech perception and production. METHOD A computer implemented neural model of sensorimotor control of speech production was developed. The model is capable of demonstrating the...
متن کاملAcoustic and kinematic characteristics of vowel production through a virtual vocal tract in dysarthria
Broadening our understanding of the components and processes of speech sensorimotor learning is crucial to furthering methods of speech neurorehabilitation. Recent research in limb sensorimotor control has used virtual environments to study learning in novel sensorimotor working spaces. Comparable experimental paradigms have yet to be undertaken to study speech learning. We present acoustic and...
متن کاملThe Sensorimotor Control of Speech Production
A model of the sensorimotor control of speech production is presented. The model is being implemented as a set of computer simulations. It converts an input sequence of discrete phonemes into quasi-continuous motor commands and a sound output. A key feature of the model is that the goals for speech movements, at least for some kinds of sounds, are regions in auditory-temporal space. The model i...
متن کاملAffective and sensorimotor components of emotional prosody generation.
Although advances have been made regarding how the brain perceives emotional prosody, the neural bases involved in the generation of affective prosody remain unclear and debated. Two models have been forged on the basis of clinical observations: a first model proposes that the right hemisphere sustains production and comprehension of emotional prosody, while a second model proposes that emotion...
متن کاملMapping of functions to brain regions : A neuro-phonetic model of speech production, perception, and acquisition
A model has been computer-implemented which is capable of producing and/or perceiving speech items (sounds, syllables, words, or short utterances). The organization of the model is given in Fig. 1 (see also Kröger et al. 2009a). Its cognitive linguistic module is not modelled in detail in this neurophonetic approach but it can be assumed that this module is subdivided into a procedural and a de...
