Phoneme restoration in degraded speech communication
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the experimental results of investigation in a research on the phoneme restoration effects for the case of degraded speech communication. The first experiment examined the role of coarticulation in consonant restoration inside CV syllables. In the second experiment the phonological effects in initial consonant restoration around the words were demonstrated. The third experiment demonstrated consonant restoration effects inside the sentences either grammatically and semantically correct or incorrect. Finally, the forth experiment showed an integral effects of coarticulation, phonology, syntax and semantics on phoneme restoration in spontaneous speech communication.

Restoration effects in auditory and visual speech
In this paper we examined the use of context to “restore” a degraded auditory signal using the standard Auditory-Only (AO) phoneme restoration paradigm and an Auditory-Visual (AV) version. The experiment was a modified replication of Trout and Poser [1] who used the Samuel [2] discrimination paradigm in which white noise was either superimposed (added) on a phoneme in a word or replaced it enti...
متن کاملPhonemic restoration in developmental dyslexia
The comprehension of fluent speech in one's native language requires that listeners integrate the detailed acoustic-phonetic information available in the sound signal with linguistic knowledge. This interplay is especially apparent in the phoneme restoration effect, a phenomenon in which a missing phoneme is "restored" via the influence of top-down information from the lexicon and through botto...
متن کاملAllophone-based acoustic modeling for Persian phoneme recognition
Phoneme recognition is one of the fundamental phases of automatic speech recognition. Coarticulation which refers to the integration of sounds, is one of the important obstacles in phoneme recognition. In other words, each phone is influenced and changed by the characteristics of its neighbor phones, and coarticulation is responsible for most of these changes. The idea of modeling the effects o...
متن کاملVisual speech modifies the phoneme restoration effect
The current study examined how seeing the talker (having visual speech information) affected phoneme restoration. For this purpose, six phonemes (/b/, /p/, /d/, /t/, /g/, /k/) in word contexts were used as target sounds in a 2IFC task in which participants were required to choose the white noise filled interval in which a target phoneme was present. The results showed that choosing the interval...
متن کاملPhoneme Classification Using Temporal Tracking of Speech Clusters in Spectro-temporal Domain
This article presents a new feature extraction technique based on the temporal tracking of clusters in spectro-temporal features space. In the proposed method, auditory cortical outputs were clustered. The attributes of speech clusters were extracted as secondary features. However, the shape and position of speech clusters change during the time. The clusters temporally tracked and temporal tra...
