A probabilistic framework for a landmark-based approach to speech recognition is presented for obtaining multiple landmark sequences in continuous speech. The landmark detection module uses as input acoustic parameters (APs) that capture the acoustic correlates of some of the manner-based phonetic features. The landmarks include stop bursts, vowel onsets, syllabic peaks and dips, fricative onse...
“The state of being plain” is one of the features of the Holy Quran, taken as indicative of Quran’s expressiveness and clearness regarding its intentions. However, one of the aspects of Quranic miracles is its expressive miracle based on which verses have been revealed according to suitability and appropriateness of situation in an explicit and succinct form. In order to have a desirable unders...
It has been found that Korean speakers lower their average voice pitch when speaking politely [16, 17], contradicting the idea that high pitch is polite across all cultures, as proposed by Ohala’s Frequency Code hypothesis [e.g., 12]. This study looks at pitch as a perceptual cue to politeness in Korean. Ten Korean listeners heard short utterances from eight different speakers and judged whethe...
A significant and prevalent aspect of human behavior (as opposed to attitudes and beliefs) which is affected by cultural differences is communication style. We have been developing computational models of an important culturallyvarying aspect of communication: ”politeness” and “etiquette” in social interactions and its role in establishing and managing power and familiarity relationships, urgen...
chapter one is devoted to a moderate discussion on preliminaries, according to our requirements. chapter two which is based on our work in (24) is devoted introducting weighted semigroups (s, w), and studying some famous function spaces on them, especially the relations between go (s, w) and other function speces are invesigated. in fact this chapter is a complement to (32). one of the main fea...
abstract the present study was conducted to examine the effect of proficiency on students interaction while carrying out the grammar-based task(s) in collaboration. in particular, the study examines whether the level of proficiency affects the learners’ focus of attention to grammatical and lexical features. the study takes a further step and examines whether there is any difference in the use...
Politeness is an integral part of human language variation, e.g. consider the difference in the pragmatic effect of realizing the same communicative goal with either “Get me a glass of water mate!” or “I wonder if I could possibly have some water please?” This paper presents POLLy (Politeness for Language Learning), a system which combines a natural language generator with an AI Planner to mode...
This paper presents a method for speaker-independent automatic phonetic alignment that is distinguished from standard HMM-based “forced alignment” in three respects: (1) specific acoustic-phonetic features are used, in addition to PLP features, by the phonetic classifier; (2) the units of classification consist of distinctive phonetic features instead of phonemes; and (3) observation probabilit...
