Acoustic and perceptual cues to contrastive stress in dysarthria.
PURPOSE In this study, the authors sought to understand acoustic and perceptual cues to contrastive stress in speakers with dysarthria (DYS) and healthy controls (HC). METHOD The production experiment examined the ability of 12 DYS (9 male, 3 female; M=39 years of age) and 12 age- and gender-matched HC (9 male, 3 female; M=37.5 years of age) to signal contrastive stress within short sentences...
متن کاملPerceptual and acoustic cues of Polish coronal fricatives
In this paper we revise the claim made by Halle & Stevens [1] and Maddieson & Ladefoged [2] that the Polish alveolo-palatal fricatives [ ̨, ̧] are palatalized postalveolars [SJ, ZJ]. On the basis of perceptual experiments we show that alveolo-palatal fricatives and palatalized post-alveolars are two separate sounds which are distinguished not only by Polish native speakers but also by German one...
متن کاملAcoustic and perceptual cues for compound-phrasal contrasts in Vietnamese.
This paper reports two series of experiments that examined the phonetic correlates of lexical stress in Vietnamese compounds in comparison to their phrasal constructions. In the first series of experiments, acoustic and perceptual characteristics of Vietnamese compound words and their phrasal counterparts were investigated on five likely acoustic correlates of stress or prominence (f0 range and...
متن کاملCue Integration With Categories: Weighting Acoustic Cues in Speech Using Unsupervised Learning and Distributional Statistics
During speech perception, listeners make judgments about the phonological category of sounds by taking advantage of multiple acoustic cues for each phonological contrast. Perceptual experiments have shown that listeners weight these cues differently. How do listeners weight and combine acoustic cues to arrive at an overall estimate of the category for a speech sound? Here, we present several si...
متن کاملUsing the Distributional Statistics of Speech Sounds for Weighting and Integrating Acoustic Cues
A great deal of behavioral evidence suggests that infants can use distributional statistics to learn speech sound categories. Recently, a number of computational approaches have demonstrated the feasibility of statistical learning by showing that the distributional statistics of linguistically-relevant acoustic cues can be learned in an unsupervised way. However, speakers and listeners use a la...
