1. 1. Articulation in time : Some word-initial segments in Swedish

   Författare :Malin Svensson Lundmark; Fonetik; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; acceleration; articulation; articulography; coarticulation; EMA; gesture; phonology; prosody; speech motor control; speech production modelling; Swedish; word accent; tone;

   Sammanfattning : Speech is both dynamic and distinctive at the same time. This implies a certain contradiction which has entertained researchers in phonetics and phonology for decades. The present dissertation assumes that articulation behaves as a function of time, and that we can find phonological structures in the dynamical systems. LÄS MER

3. 2. Articulation and velopharyngeal function in patients with cleft lip and/or palate : Outcome predictors

   Författare :Åsa Okhiria; Daniel Nowinski; Yvonne Wren; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cleft lip and palate; cleft width; cleft type; surgical technique; articulation; velopharyngeal function; international adoption;

   Sammanfattning : Cleft lip and/or palate is the most common congenital craniofacial malformation, requiring multidisciplinary treatment, including surgery and often speech therapy. Palatal surgery restores the anatomical barrier between the oral and nasal cavities as well as the palatal function needed for normal speech. LÄS MER

4. 3. "Sweetenings" and "Babylonish Gabble" : Flute Vibrato and Articulation of Fast Passages in the 18:th and 19:th centuries

   Författare :Maria Bania; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Historical Performance Practice; Flute; Vibrato; Articulation; Double-tonguing; Artistic Research; Flattement; Johann Joachim Quantz; Johann George Tromlitz; Morten Raehs; Johan Helmich Roman; Charles Nicholson; Louis Drouët;

   Sammanfattning : During the 18th and 19th centuries, vibrato as well as the articulation of fast passages was often not indicated in the musical scores, but was left to the players discretion within prevailing practice. A finger-vibrato technique that this study names the flattement technique was the most recommended vibrato technique in Western classical music throughout the 18th century. LÄS MER

5. 4. From Acoustics to Articulation : Study of the acoustic-articulatory relationship along with methods to normalize and adapt to variations in production across different speakers

   Författare :Gopal Ananthakrishnan; Olov Engwall; Gérard Bailly; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Acoustic-Articulatory relationship; speaker normalization;

   Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is the relationship between the articulation ofspeech and the acoustics of produced speech. There are several problems thatare encountered in understanding this relationship, given the non-linearity,variance and non-uniqueness in the mapping, as well as the differences thatexist in the size and shape of the articulators, and consequently the acoustics,for different speakers.

7. 5. Articulation Rate and Surprisal in Swedish Child-Directed Speech

   Författare :Johan Sjons; Mats Wirén; Robert Östling; Iris-Corinna Schwarz; Francisco Lacerda; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; articulation rate; information-theoretic surprisal; child-directed speech; final lengthening; spontaneous; longitudinal;

   Sammanfattning : Child-directed speech (CDS) differs from adult-directed speech (ADS) in several respects whose possible facilitating effects for language acquisition are still being studied. One such difference concerns articulation rate --- the number of linguistic units by the number of time units, excluding pauses --- which has been shown to be generally lower than in ADS. LÄS MER
