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 کاملPerception of speech reflects optimal use of probabilistic speech cues.
Listeners are exquisitely sensitive to fine-grained acoustic detail within phonetic categories for sounds and words. Here we show that this sensitivity is optimal given the probabilistic nature of speech cues. We manipulated the probability distribution of one probabilistic cue, voice onset time (VOT), which differentiates word initial labial stops in English (e.g., "beach" and "peach"). Partic...
متن کاملThe Role of Temporal Fine Structure Cues in Speech Perception
In this thesis, the importance of temporal fine structure (TFS) in speech perception is investigated. It is well accepted that TFS is important for sound localization and pitch perception, while envelope (ENV) is primarily responsible for speech perception. Recently, a significant contribution of TFS in speech perception has been suggested. This was linked to the improved ability of normal-hear...
