  1. 1. Found speech and humans in the loop : Ways to gain insight into large quantities of speech

    Författare :Per Fallgren; Jens Edlund; Fred Cummins; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Found data; found speech; human-in-the-loop; sound browsing; dimensionality reduction; visualization; crowdsourcing; Tal- och musikkommunikation; Speech and Music Communication;

    Sammanfattning : Found data - data used for something other than the purpose for which it was originally collected - holds great value in many regards. It typically reflects high ecological validity, a strong cultural worth, and there are significant quantities at hand. However, it is noisy, hard to search through, and its contents are often largely unknown. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Estimation of Speaker Age : Effects of Speech Properties and Speech Material

    Författare :Sara Skoog Waller; Mårten Eriksson; Billy Jansson; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Age estimation; Voice perception; Speech properties; Speech rate; Vocal disguise; Age disguise; Accuracy; Confidence; Spontaneous speech;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate factors related to accuracy in estimation of speaker age and the role of certain speech properties in perception and manipulation of speaker age, as well as their interaction with the speech material that the age estimates were based on. This thesis consists of three studies. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Aerodynamic assessment of velopharyngeal function in speech

    Författare :Hans Dotevall; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Speech production measurements; speech aerodynamics; velopharyngeal function; nasal airflow; perceptual speech evaluation; hypernasality; cleft palate speech; sleep disordered breathing; snoring; sleep apnea;

    Sammanfattning : Velopharyngeal function in speech was assessed by aerodynamic techniques, which were developed and tested. Temporal and dynamic characteristics of the nasal airflow pattern during the velopharyngeal closing phase in speech were studied in different patient groups. Its validity in relation to listener's perceptual evaluation of speech was analyzed. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Prosodic Phrasing in Spontaneous Swedish
