Journal ArticleDOI
Static, dynamic, and relational properties in vowel perception
TL;DR: The present work reviews theories and empirical findings that bear on the perception of English vowels, with an emphasis on the comparison of data analytic "machine recognition" approaches with results from speech perception experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the role of inherent spectral change in vowel identification
TL;DR: This paper performed statistical analysis of F1 and F2 measurements from nucleus and offglide sections of isolated Canadian English vowels and found significant formant frequency change not only for the phonetic diphthongs, but also for the monophthongs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of consonant environment on vowel formant patterns
TL;DR: The main purpose of the present study was to determine whether a close relationship between vowel identity and spectral change patterns is maintained when the consonant environment is allowed to vary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of resynthesized /hVd/ utterances: Effects of formant contour
TL;DR: Pattern recognition results showed that a simple approach to vowel specification based on duration, steady-state F0, and formant frequency measurements at 20% and 80% of vowel duration accounts for much but by no means all of the variation in listeners' labeling of the three types of stimuli.
