    Sammanfattning : The aim of a text-to-speech synthesis (TTS) system is to generate a human-like speech waveform from a given input text. Current TTS sys- tems have already reached a high degree of intelligibility, and they can be readily used to read aloud a given text. For many applications, e.g. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Semantic Self-monitoring in Speech. Using Real-time Speech Exchange to Investigate the Use of Auditory Feedback for Self-comprehension

    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Speech production; self-monitoring; voice manipulation; self-comprehension; sense of agency; auditory feedback; Real-time Speech Exchange; internal monitoring;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates speech production and self-monitoring by using a newly constructed Real-time Speech Exchange (RSE) system. This system makes it possible to covertly manipulate the auditory feedback that participants receive of their own voice. LÄS MER
