Sonority Based Syllable Segmentation
This paper proposes a new method for detecting syllable boundaries. It is based on the sonority and it uses the so-called Sonority Sequencing Principle for the boundary detection. As acoustic correlate of the phonological concept of sonority we use the regularities present in the spectrogram of the signal. By finding the maxima of the sonority function we will be finding the syllable nuclei, wh...
متن کاملAutomatic detection of landmark for nasal consonants from speech waveform
A knowledge-based approach towards automatically detecting nasal landmarks (/m/, /n/, and /ng/) from speech waveform is developed. The acoustic characteristics Fn1 locus calculated on each frame of speech waveform as the mass center of spectrum amplitude in the vicinity of the lowest spectral prominence between 150-1000Hz, and A23 locus calculated on the same speech frame as a band energy betwe...
متن کاملAnalysis of nasal consonants using perceptual linear prediction.
Until recently, speech analysis techniques have been built around the all-pole linear predictive model. This study examines the effectiveness of using the perceptual linear predictive method for analyzing nasal consonants. Six speakers (three men and three women) produced 300 CV syllables with initial nasal consonants /m/ and /n/. A threshold-based boundary detection algorithm was developed to ...
متن کاملPerception of Nasal Consonants with Special Reference to Catalan
In this paper I study. the role that different place cues play in the recogni tion of nasal stops. I claim that their perceptual relevance is strongly dependent on how they are related cIt the articulatory and acoustic levels and, essentially, on the nature of the process of speech perception itself. I show that this is the case by investigating experimentally interactive perceptual effects bet...
متن کاملThe Effect of Nasal Obstruction after Different Nasal Surgeries Using Acoustic Rhinometry and Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation Scale
BACKGROUND The efficiency of nasal surgeries can be determined by objective or subjective methods. We have assessed the effect of nasal obstruction after different nasal surgeries using Acoustic Rhinometry (AR) and Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) Scale. METHODS Between May 2011 and May 2012, 40 young adult patients and 10 healthy volunteers as control group who referred to ...
