Speech perception without traditional speech cues.
A three-tone sinusoidal replica of a naturally produced utterance was identified by listeners, despite the readily apparent unnatural speech quality of the signal. The time-varying properties of these highly artificial acoustic signals are apparently sufficient to support perception of the linguistic message in the absence of traditional acoustic cues for phonetic segments.
متن کاملAudio-visual speech perception without speech cues
A series of experiments was conducted in which listeners were presented with audio-visual sentences in a transcription task. The visual components of the stimuli consisted of a male talker’s face. The acoustic components consisted of : (1) natural speech (2) envelope-shaped noise which preserved the duration and amplitude of the original speech waveform and (3) various types of sinewave speech ...
متن کاملProsodic Cues in Multimodal Speech Perception
Potential visual prosodic cues for prominence and phrasing comprising eyebrow movements were manipulated using a system for audio-visual text-to-speech synthesis which has been implemented based on the KTH rule-based synthesis. Two functions of prosody (prominence and phrasing) were tested in two separate experiments. A test sentence, ambiguous in terms of an internal phrase boundary, was used ...
متن کاملImportance of tonal envelope cues in Chinese speech recognition.
Recent studies have shown that temporal waveform envelope cues can provide significant information for English speech recognition. This study investigated the use of temporal envelope cues in a tonal language: Mandarin Chinese. In this study, the speech was divided into several frequency analysis bands; the amplitude envelope was extracted from each band by half-wave rectification and low-pass ...
متن کاملEnvelope-based inter-aural time difference localization training to improve speech-in-noise perception in the elderly
Background: Many elderly individuals complain of difficulty in understanding speech in noise despite having normal hearing thresholds. According to previous studies, auditory training leads to improvement in speech-in-noise perception, but these studies did not consider the etiology, so their results cannot be generalized. The present study aimed at investigating the effectiveness of envelope-b...
