Abstract:

Recent advances in technology have made it possible to offer educational content online in the form of e-learning systems. The Semantically Linked Instructional Content (SLIC) system, developed at The University of Arizona,is one such system that hosts educational and technical videos online.This dissertation proposes the integration of speech and language technologies with the SLIC system.Speech transcripts are being used increasingly in video browsing systems to help understand the video content better and to do search on the content with text queries. Transcripts are especially useful for p

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2012.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 237-244).<br>Second language learning has become an important societal need over the past decades. Given that the number of language teachers is far below demand, computer-aided language learning software is becoming a promising supplement to traditional classroom learning, as well as potentially enabling new opportunities for self-learning. The use of speech technologies is especially attractive

Abstract:

A variety of therapy tools as well as augmentative alternative communication (AAC) devices and strategies exist to aid in the communication enhancement of persons with aphasia. As technology continues to evolve, personal computing tablets (PCTs) such as the iPad have joined the race in finding the solution to this often devastating communication disorder with the development of apps that address the therapy needs of this population as well as potential AAC strategies. Because of the novelty of this technology, little evidence exists supporting the efficacy of such apps. Additionally, little is

Abstract:

This research is motivated by the benefits that knowledge regarding early development in infants may provide to different fields of science. In particular, early sensorimotor exploration behaviors are studied in the framework of developmental robotics. The main objective is about understanding the role of motor constraint awareness and imitative behaviors during sensorimotor exploration. Particular emphasis is placed on prelinguistic vocal development because during this stage infants start to master the motor systems that will later allow them to pronounce their first words.

Abstract:

A speech visualization system is proposed thatcould be used by a deaf person for understanding speech.Several novel techniques are proposed, including: (1) Minimizing spectral leakage in the Fourier transform by using avariable-length window. (2) Making use of the fact that there is no spectral leakage in order to calculate how much of the energy of the speech signal is due to its periodic component vs. its nonperiodic component.

ABSTRACT Context: Communication is a primary human need and language is the medium for this. Most people have the ability to listen and speak and they use different languages like Swedish, Urdu and English etc. to communicate. Hearing impaired people use signs to communicate. Pakistan Sign Language (PSL) is the preferred language of the deaf in Pakistan. Currently, human PSL interpreters are required to facilitate communication between the deaf and hearing; they are not always available, which means that communication among the deaf and other people may be impaired or nonexistent.

Abstract:

The present study addresses a core issue in the study of speech perception, the question of how stable phonological representations are accessed from an inherently variable speech signal. In particular, the research investigates the perception of accented English speech by native and non-native listeners. It is known from previous research that foreign-accented speech is harder for native listeners to process than native-accented speech. The reason for this lies in not only qualities of the input (deviation from native production norms, for example) but also in qualities of the listener. Speci

Background: Policy and practice in early years provision in education, health and social care has advanced in recent times to emphasise parents as partners in supporting children’s learning.

There is growing evidence that indicates that parents can be taught how to become effective facilitators of language skills. Nevertheless, little is known about parents’ or SLTs’ conceptions of their roles when working together

Abstract:

In everyday interactions, speakers integrate gestures and speech sounds at a temporal level. One of the linguistic functions of temporally synchronous gesture-speech combinations is to provide prominence to specific parts of a discourse. While a bulk of evidence has explored the gesture-speech co-expressiveness at a semantic level, little is known about the children’s ability to use synchronized gestural and prosodic prominences in the benefit of language. This PhD thesis investigates gesture-speech temporal integration abilities in development and its beneficial impact for children’s language

This study aims to build a new language model for Turkish continuous speech recognition. Turkish is very productive language in terms of word forms because of its agglutinative nature.

In this work, word are parsed into their stem and endings. First of all, we consider endings as words and we obtained bigram probabilities using stem and endings.

Abstract:

The phenomenon of foreign accent has long been a topic of linguistic theory. Neufeld proposes that speech production, especially at the phonological level, is hampered by the use of (conscious or unconscious) knowledge that speakers have about the L2--metalinguistic knowledge. Those who begin acquiring an L2 after the age of five focus more on structural correctness than younger learners, and tend to use this metalinguistic knowledge more often. Thus even among balanced bilinguals, on an experiment designed to induce focus on form, older learners should perform more speech errors and dysfluenc

Abstract:

The effects of vividness have been argued to be weak, elusive, and illusory. This study reconceptualized vividness as a language characteristic along four dimensions: emotional interest, concreteness, proximity, and image valence, and attempted to extend Language Expectancy Theory as the explanatory mechanism for vividness. Based on LET, it was proposed that an interaction effect between source characteristics (sex and credibility) and message characteristics (vividness) would occur. No support for the hypothesized interaction effects were found although the extension of Language Expectancy Th

Abstract:

Children with developmental speech disorder of no known aetiology constitute a heterogeneous group, both in their presenting difficulties, which can include additional language and speech perception difficulties, and in the developmental course of the disorder. This thesis examines this heterogeneity from a developmental and psycholinguistic perspective. Using a longitudinal design, speech processing and language skills are explored over three years in a group of children with speech difficulties (n=47) and an age- and nonverbal IQ-matched longitudinal control group (n=47), mean age 4;06 - 6;0

Abstract:

Highly unintelligible children may mistakenly be assumed to have difficulty only with the misarticulation of consonants. Expressive language concerns may be ignored while the primary focus of intervention becomes the correction of misarticulated speech. Questions have arisen regarding the possibility of both speech and expressive language difficulties contributing to unintelligibility. Shriberg and Kwiatkowski (1982) developed an ordinal means of rating severity of involvement. One of the constructs of the severity scale was intelligibility. The metric percentage consonants correct (PCC) was d
