Book excerpt: Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Speech Spectrum Analysis

Download or read book Speech Spectrum Analysis written by Sean A. Fulop and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-05-26 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The accurate determination of the speech spectrum, particularly for short frames, is commonly pursued in diverse areas including speech processing, recognition, and acoustic phonetics. With this book the author makes the subject of spectrum analysis understandable to a wide audience, including those with a solid background in general signal processing and those without such background. In keeping with these goals, this is not a book that replaces or attempts to cover the material found in a general signal processing textbook. Some essential signal processing concepts are presented in the first chapter, but even there the concepts are presented in a generally understandable fashion as far as is possible. Throughout the book, the focus is on applications to speech analysis; mathematical theory is provided for completeness, but these developments are set off in boxes for the benefit of those readers with sufficient background. Other readers may proceed through the main text, where the key results and applications will be presented in general heuristic terms, and illustrated with software routines and practical "show-and-tell" discussions of the results. At some points, the book refers to and uses the implementations in the Praat speech analysis software package, which has the advantages that it is used by many scientists around the world, and it is free and open source software. At other points, special software routines have been developed and made available to complement the book, and these are provided in the Matlab programming language. If the reader has the basic Matlab package, he/she will be able to immediately implement the programs in that platform---no extra "toolboxes" are required.

Book Vowel Inherent Spectral Change

Download or read book Vowel Inherent Spectral Change written by Geoffrey Stewart Morrison and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-14 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been traditional in phonetic research to characterize monophthongs using a set of static formant frequencies, i.e., formant frequencies taken from a single time-point in the vowel or averaged over the time-course of the vowel. However, over the last twenty years a growing body of research has demonstrated that, at least for a number of dialects of North American English, vowels which are traditionally described as monophthongs often have substantial spectral change. Vowel inherent spectral change has been observed in speakers’ productions, and has also been found to have a substantial effect on listeners’ perception. In terms of acoustics, the traditional categorical distinction between monophthongs and diphthongs can be replaced by a gradient description of dynamic spectral patterns. This book includes chapters addressing various aspects of vowel inherent spectral change (VISC), including theoretical and experimental studies of the perceptually relevant aspects of VISC, the relationship between articulation (vocal-tract trajectories) and VISC, historical changes related VISC, cross-dialect, cross-language, and cross-age-group comparisons of VISC, the effects of VISC on second-language speech learning, and the use of VISC in forensic voice comparison.

Book Handbook of Vowels and Vowel Disorders

Download or read book Handbook of Vowels and Vowel Disorders written by Karen Pollock and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the general study of speech and phonetics, vowels have stood in second place to consonants. But what vowels are, how they differ from one another, how they vary among speakers, and how they are subject to disorder, are questions that require a closer examination. This Handbook presents a comprehensive, cogent, and up-to-date analysis of the vowel, including its typical development in children's speech, description by perceptual and instrumental methods, cross-linguistic and sociolinguistic aspects, and disorders of its production and use. It approaches the problems of vowel production and perception from the viewpoints of physiology, physics, psychology, linguistics, phonetics, phonology, and speech-language pathology. The chapters are logically complementary, and the major sections of the book are like key dimensions of understanding, each adding a perspective and base of knowledge on vowels. The sum total of the chapters is a synthesis of information on vowels that has no precedent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vowel-Sound: Thesis Presented to the University of LondonIt is evident, however, that such a state of things can only be temporary, that in fact we shall never continue to classify sounds according to the accidents of their origin when once we are able to arrange them after the essentials of their nature. Not indeed that we should slacken our study of articulations. Quite the reverse. But we ought to know why certain articulations produce certain sounds, and what is the intimate acoustic nature of the sounds thus produced. When that is done we shall certainly learn first to know the sounds per se, and then to know the reasons why certain articulations produce them. Until then we shall always be in danger of viewing the subject in an inverted perspective, hardly seeing that which ought to be the chief object of our view. Phonetics is defined to be the science of speech-sounds. N ow the first thing we want to know about a sound is its acoustic nature; our interest in its mode of production is only of a secondary kind.It follows then that in the phonetic science of the future speech-sounds will certainly be classed not according to their articulation, but according to their acoustic essence; and the study of articulations will be the first handmaid of Phonetics, but will stand no risk of being mistaken, as it now is, for Phonetics itself. This being so, it seems clear that the path of greatest usefulness at present in phonetic investigation is to enquire further into the acoustic nature of speech-sounds, and especially of vowels. This has been done already to a certain extent, but not to anything like a sufficient degree. Nearly every phonetician of the acoustic school has his own scheme or diagram of classification, wherein the vowels are duly arranged in an order which seems suitably to represent their relative affinities of sound: and some physicists also, notably Willis and Helmholtz, have made partially successful attempts to analyze the different vowels into their acoustic elements, and also to construct artificial vowels. But the latter attempt seems only to have succeeded well with the graver vowels, such as u and o: the attempt to produce i (english cc) was a failure altogether.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
