Assessing toddlers' speech-sound discrimination.
OBJECTIVE Valid and reliable methods for assessing speech perception in toddlers are lacking in the field, leading to conspicuous gaps in understanding how speech perception develops and limited clinical tools for assessing sensory aid benefit in toddlers. The objective of this investigation was to evaluate speech-sound discrimination in toddlers using modifications to the Change/No-Change proc...
متن کاملSpeech Sound Discrimination With GeneticProgrammingMarkus Conrads
The question that we investigate in this paper is, whether it is possible for Genetic Programming to extract certain regularities from raw time series data of human speech. We examine whether a genetic programming algorithm can nd programs that are able to discriminate certain spoken vowels and consonants. We present evidence that this can indeed be achieved with a surprisingly simple approach ...
متن کاملA statistical basis for speech sound discrimination.
Infants under six months are able to discriminate native and non-native consonant contrasts equally well, but as they learn the phonological systems of their native language, this ability declines. Current explanations of this phenomenon agree that the decline in discrimination ability is linked to the formation of native-language phonemic categories. The goal of this study was to evaluate the ...
متن کاملMultiple looks in speech sound discrimination in adults.
N. F. Viemeister and G. H. Wakefield's (1991) multiple looks hypothesis is a theoretical approach from the psychoacoustic literature that has promise for bridging the gap between results from speech perception research and results from psychoacoustic research. This hypothesis accounts for sensory detection data and predicts that if the "looks" at a stimulus are independent and information is co...
متن کاملModeling Infant Speech Sound Discrimination Using Simple Associative Networks
Infants’ responses in speech sound discrimination tasks can be nonmonotonic over time. Stager and Werker (1997) reported such data in a bimodal habituation task. In this task, 8-month-old infants were capable of discriminations that involved minimal contrast pairs, whereas 14-month-old infants were not. It was argued that the older infants’ attenuated performance was linked to their processing ...
