In this paper, we present preliminary results of an articulatory study of pharyngealized phonemes in Arabic using an electromagnetic articulograph (AG500). We compared the articulations of pharyngealized phonemes to non-pharyngealized ones. The articulation of the tongue was tracked by four sensors glued onto the tongue. A corpus of several CVCVCVs was recorded using the AG500, labeled, and ana...

Hungarian phoneticians were often among the first to do high quality research of certain types or to adopt the most advanced methods of their time. The first objective method in the investigation of the articulation of speech sounds, called „stomatoscopy‟, was used about ten years earlier than Rousselot‟s famous work was first published. More than a hundred years ago various tools were develope...

This paper presents preliminary analysis and modelling of facial motion capture data recorded on a speaker uttering nonsense syllables and sentences with various acted facial expressions. We analyze here the impact of facial expressions on articulation and determine prediction errors of simple models trained to map neutral articulation to the various facial expressions targeted. We show that mo...
