Electromagnetic midsagittal articulometer systems for transducing speech articulatory movements
Joseph S. Perkell,Marc H. Cohen,Mario A. Svirsky,Melanie L. Matthies,Iñaki Garabieta,Michel T. T. Jackson +5 more
TL;DR: Two electromagnetic midsagittal articulometer systems that were developed for transducing articulatory movements during speech production are described and each one has a specific set of advantages and limitations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Speech motor control: acoustic goals, saturation effects, auditory feedback and internal models
Joseph S. Perkell,Melanie L. Matthies,Harlan Lane,Frank H. Guenther,Reiner Wilhelms-Tricarico,Jane Wozniak,Peter Guiod +6 more
TL;DR: Findings of “motor-equivalent” trading relations between the contributions of two constrictions to the same acoustic transfer function provide preliminary support for the idea that segmental control is based on acoustic or auditory-perceptual goals.
A theory of speech motor control and supporting data from speakers with normal hearing and with profound hearing loss
Joseph S. Perkell,Frank H. Guenther,Harlan Lane,Melanie L. Matthies,Pascal Perrier,Jennell Vick,Reiner Wilhelms-Tricarico,Majid Zandipour +7 more
TL;DR: A theory of the segmental component of speech motor control, which utilizes an internal model of relations between articulatory configurations and their acoustic consequences, is presented, followed by supporting data.
Journal ArticleDOI
A theory of speech motor control and supporting data from speakers with normal hearing and with profound hearing loss
Joseph S. Perkell,Frank H. Guenther,Harlan Lane,Melanie L. Matthies,Pascal Perrier,Jennell Vick,Reiner Wilhelms-Tricarico,Majid Zandipour +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a theory of the segmental component of speech motor control is presented, followed by supporting data, where speech movements are programmed to achieve auditory/acoustic goals.
Journal ArticleDOI
The distinctness of speakers' productions of vowel contrasts is related to their discrimination of the contrasts.
Joseph S. Perkell,Frank H. Guenther,Harlan Lane,Melanie L. Matthies,Ellen Stockmann,Mark Tiede,Majid Zandipour +6 more
TL;DR: A relation between speech production and perception is compatible with a model of speech production in which articulatory movements for vowels are planned primarily in auditory space.
