Discrimination of voiced stop consonants based on auditory nerve discharges.
Previous studies of the neural representation of speech assumed some form of neural code, usually discharge rate or phase locking, for the representation. In the present study, responses to five synthesized CVC_CV (e.g., /dad_da/) utterances have been examined using information-theoretic distance measures [or Kullback-Leibler (KL) distance] that are independent of a priori assumptions about the...
متن کاملSeparation of stop consonants
To extract speech from acoustic interference is a challenging problem. Previous systems based on auditory scene analysis principles deal with voiced speech, but cannot separate unvoiced speech. We propose a novel method to separate stop consonants, which contain significant unvoiced signals, based on their acoustic properties. The method employs onset as the major grouping cue; it first detects...
متن کاملBrain Functional Connectivity Changes During Learning of Time Discrimination
The human brain is a complex system consist of connected nerve cells that adapts with and learn from the environment by changing its regional activities. Synchrony between these regional activities called functional network changes during the life, and with learning of new skills. Time perception and interval discrimination are among the most necessary skills for the human being to perceive mot...
متن کاملAuditory phonemic perception in dyslexia: categorical identification and discrimination of stop consonants.
The possibility that phonological confusions may underlie some difficulties in processing written language was investigated using four speech perception tasks. Twelve dyslexic and four normal-reading children identified and discriminated synthetic speech syllables which varied either in voice-onset time (signaling the feature of voicing) or direction of formant transitions (signaling place of a...
متن کاملDurational characteristics of hindi stop consonants
A study of the durational characteristics of Hindi stop consonants in spoken sentences was carried out. An annotated and time-aligned Hindi speech database was used in the experiment. The influences of aspiration, voicing and gemination on the durations of closure and post-release segments of plosives as well as the duration of the preceding vowel were studied. It was observed that the post-rel...
