While more and more people opt for a speech driven computer interface as an alternative input method to the keyboard, and these speech recognition systems become more and widely used, both in the home and office environment, it has become necessary to qualify any potential risks of voice damage. This study reports about ongoing research that investigates acoustic changes in the voice, after use of a discrete speech recognition system. Acoustic analyses were carried out on two Swedish users of such a system. So far, for one of the users, two of the acoustic parameters under investigation that could be an indicator of vocal fatigue, show a significant difference directly before and after use of a speech recognition system.","PeriodicalId":117113,"journal":{"name":"5th International Conference on Spoken Language Processing (ICSLP 1998)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129469558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of the workbench is to facilitate development and research within the field of multi modal user interaction. Physically it is a table with various devices mounted above and around. These include: A camera and a laser projector mounted above the workbench, a microphone array mounted on the walls of the room, a speech recogniser and a speech synthesiser. The camera is attached to a vision system capable of locating various objects placed on the workbench. The paper presents two applications utilising the workbench. One is a campus information system, allowing the user to ask for directions within a part of the university campus. The second application is a pool trainer, intended to provide guidance to novice players.","PeriodicalId":117113,"journal":{"name":"5th International Conference on Spoken Language Processing (ICSLP 1998)","volume":"184 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129652726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Attributing the lack of success in this type of visual aids mainly to the static form of information presented by the spectrograms, this paper proposes a system of dynamic visualisation for speech sounds. This system samples a high resolved, auditory-based spectrogram, with a window of 20 milliseconds duration, so that exploiting the periodicity of the input sound, it produces a phase-locked sequence of images. This sequence is then animated at a rate of 50 images per second to produce a movie-like image displaying both the time-varying and time-independent information of the underlying sound. Results of several preliminary experiments for evaluation of the potential usefulness of the system for the deaf, undertaken by normal-hearing subjects, support the quick learning and persistence of the gestures for small sets of single words and motivate further investigations.","PeriodicalId":117113,"journal":{"name":"5th International Conference on Spoken Language Processing (ICSLP 1998)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129669510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present paper describes the results of a study on the variabilty and speech rate dependency of the model’s parameters in utterances of a speaker of Japanese. It was found that parameters α and β can be considered to be practically constant at a given speech rate, while Fb may vary slightly from utterance to utterance. Among these three parameters, only α was found to have a small but systematic tendency to increase with the speech rate.","PeriodicalId":117113,"journal":{"name":"5th International Conference on Spoken Language Processing (ICSLP 1998)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130501222","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While previous studies have examined the effects of carefully produced or electronically edited reductions, we present two experiments which compare cross-modal repetition priming for lexical decision by more reduced spontaneous forms and less reduced read forms of the same words uttered by the same speakers in the same phrases. Though less priming is found for the more reduced spontaneous tokens, both versions of words produce significant priming effects, whether the majority of stimuli are taken from spontaneous speech (Experiment 1) or from read speech (Experiment 2). Priming is more robust if the tokens themselves contain the context licensing the reduction.","PeriodicalId":117113,"journal":{"name":"5th International Conference on Spoken Language Processing (ICSLP 1998)","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127013762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the proposed TTS system the syllable-sized units were cut out from the real recorded speech, the synthetic speech was generated by concatenating these units back together. 2. The integration of units synthesized by rules with natural units was tested. A LMA filter based synthesizer was developed successfully to test and generate those units, which were difficult to be collected from the speech corpus. 3. A new efficient Chinese character coding scheme - \"Yin Xu Code\"(YX Code) has been developed to assist the GB Code. Based on above results, a Chinese text-to-speech system named as \"KD-863\" has been developed. In the national assessment of Chinese TTS systems held at the end of March 1998 in Beijing, the system achieved a first of the naturalness MOS (Mean Opinion Score).","PeriodicalId":117113,"journal":{"name":"5th International Conference on Spoken Language Processing (ICSLP 1998)","volume":"2010 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129126930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The configuration of the database includes recorded speech, F0 contours and their parametric labels, phonetic transcription with durations, and other linguistic information such as orthographic transcription, part-of-speech (POS) tags, and accent types. All information that is not available by dictionary lookup is obtained automatically. In this paper, we propose a method to automatically obtain parametric labels that describe F0 contours based on a superpositional model. Preliminary tests on a small data set show that the method can find the parametric representation of F0 contours with acceptable accuracy, and that accuracy can be improved by introducing additional linguistic information.","PeriodicalId":117113,"journal":{"name":"5th International Conference on Spoken Language Processing (ICSLP 1998)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123838535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A variety of empirical and theoretical research findings are described in order to inform and hopefully to provide a more critical look at this pervasive concept. Given the demise of categorical perception, it is necessary to shift our theoretical focus to how multiple sources of continuous information are processed to support the perception of spoken language.","PeriodicalId":117113,"journal":{"name":"5th International Conference on Spoken Language Processing (ICSLP 1998)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123846183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
